Well I played around with a lot of different settings but the controller would only stay in absorption mode for about a minute at most. The only way I have found to keep absorption mode on is to disable the tail current setting. These are brand new batteries and I have never had them charged...

I'm using all new copper cables and have 4/0 awg from the batteries to the bus bars. The weak link is I have 8 awg from the controller to the bus bar right now. Should receive the 6 awg in a few days (just gets a little warm so far). Thanks again.

Okay Eggo, I entered all your setting and it did accept the 30A. Thank you very much for the help.

Hi guys I just upgraded with a Victron 100/50 and two Chins 300Ah batteries. When charging with solar(600w) my unit goes from bulk mode to float mode without spending anytime in absorption mode?. I bet it's an easy fix but being new to Victron I really don't know why. Any help will be...

I just group all those battery bombs into one group "LiPo" ?

Please post some more pictures(side, back, inside,etc...?

Get rid of those LiPo batteries and buy some good Deep Cycle batteries. Make life a little easier?

Okay.....HOLE !

The display shows that power is still going to the batteries when the unit is turned off. I don't use AC power, solar only to charge and I use deep-cycle batteries so it's all good.

Yeah....that ICC software looks really nice? too bad my system isn't on the list.

Yes, 40+ volts into the controller and 13.5/14.5 output to the batteries. With my old set of batteries I was charging at 10amps, with my new ones I have it set at 20amps. Everything is working perfect now. Not planning on adding anything until I decide to go 24 volts?This solar stuff sure is fun...

My stock USB cable had problems, try a different cable. Works fine now.

Just ran across this video from one of our members- Affordable Solarguy. Check it out you'll end up watching the whole video. You're one tough cookie Affordable Solarguy. I'm subscribed ?

Those LiFePo prices are out of this world. Don't blame you for saving a buck. Just watched a uTube video of a guy living on his sailboat and he installed 6 LiFePo batteries. Testing them out, he brought them down to 11% and they were still at 12.7 volts I think it was(thats with a load still on...

Heck I'm confused too. The 40v is what the panels are producing, not whats going to the batteries. My mistake #1. 6v batteries hooked up 2s2p at 12 volts. (4) 100w panels 2s2p at 40volts at noonish. You are right Supervstech it's okay to charge at 20amps. I was only concerned because the new...
