I actually do set the SOC to the same every couple days, but it only takes a few hrs to stray back to their tendencies.. Yes, a shunt would be a good idea,I will eventually look into it. Anyone know what the "Zero Drift Current" button does? Wonder if it's possible to go to Google play store...

Come hide in the jungle on the east side of the Big Island like we did! No permits needed for building my new house, (unless you want electricity from the Rd) , we escaped NY 5 years ago, haven't missed it not even 1 time! (That's a lie, miss my deer hunting)

Hello, built a LIFEPO4 battery bank a few months ago, it's a 24v 8s 2p battery bank, the BMS's (2) are Ponoser, (Daly knockoff). Been working great for 5 months now, but 1 BMS is always just a tad bit lower than the other, ex. ..so the SOC on 1 might be 84% and on the other would be approx...

This is what I came up with.. Saw it on Off Grid Garage (YouTube) and ordered from AliExpress.. Works great, all the parts and PCs. Were less than$20.. totally expected my BMS to suck b4 it was even bought.. Anyhow, hopefully this helps

I just came across these lifepo4 on DH Gate. I'm building a 280ah 8s2p 24 volt system with 16 lifepo4 batteries, got all the parts, BMS etc, now it's time to hook it all up. Wish I would've seen these batteries 2 months ago

Hello, getting ready to set up an 280a8s 2p battery bank. Reading around I saw that these 2 BMS are a Mgod Daly knock off (200a) , that's probably fine for my needs. Haven't finished collecting parts for my scavenger hunt yet, but close. This BMS uses the Daly Smart BMS App. Couple questions...

Inverter is Aims 4000 Watt low frequency pure sine wave inverter/charger w. 12,000 watt 20 second surge

I was actually just gonna pull the trigger on 2 of these from AliExpress, was gonna get the 200a, figured I'd go bigger,..

My inverter is an Aims 4000watt with up to a 12,000 way surge for up to 20 seconds. It powers air compressor very easily, so I'm guessing most of that required surge comes from capacitors in inverter and not so much from batteries

My Current lease acid system(inverter etc) is all 24v . Also my emergency battery charger is 24v. And going to keep a select few of my current batteries as a back up, the others with dead cells are going bye bye. Thanks for input.

Hello, getting ready build my first LiFePO4 battery and nowhere do I see the exact one I'm doing. Everyone i see is using 8 cells, I'm gonna use 16 (2p8s) Just bought 16 320ah LiFePO4 batteries, and that's it so far. First question; having 2 strings of 8 batteries , should I have 2...
