    This screen is from a different model than mine. On mine the on/off switch is on the bottom of the unit and there is no on/off on the screen, believe me I looked. But thanks
  • Post in thread: Does 12 V water pump need a fuse

    I am hooking up a 12 V DC fresh water pump to my 24 volt LiFePO4 system (8 x 280 Ah Eve batteries) via a 24/12 V transformer. The pump can take at most 9.5 A. Should I put a 10 amp fuse between and batteries and the transformer or can I just go directly to the transformer?

    Thanks to all
  • Post in thread: Solar Panels different sizes connected

    If I put the 3 panels in series I assume that would be too much voltage for the MPP 2024 (max input VOC is 145V). I have ordered a 4th panel to go with 2S2P array. In the meantime should I just hook up 2 of the panels in series and wait for the 4th panel, or could I hook up 2 in parallel and...

    Thanks but I hoping the unit is not faulty, long time to send it back and get a new one. So I want to make sure there is not a problem with the way I have hooked things up. The manual says the make sure to open the DC breaker/disconnector before connecting the grid, but I can't seem to find...
  • Post in thread: All-in-one inverter problems

    Hi. I just purchased an MPP all in one inverter, the PIP2024LV-MK which will be installed at an off-grid location. I wanted to make sure the inverter is working before trucking it up to the remote location. I hooked up grid AC via the AC IN ports and attached an AC OUT cord to check...

    I am upgrading my old offgrid 12V lead acid system to a 24V LiFePo4. My old system ran on a single 190W solar panel. I have purchased 3 x 440W panels (49.9V OC and 9.65A Max) and and they will be hooked up to an MPP All-in-One Inverter/Charger/Charge Controller. I was going to hook up all 4...

    Thanks Everyone. Yes I did know there is an on/off switch on the bottom and it was turned on, so unfortunately the fix is not that easy. I was hoping there was some DC disconnect because nothing happened when I hooked up the batteries, but if that is an add-on, then maybe the unit is...
  • Post in thread: Charge Controller settings when no Li option

    I am installing a new 24V LiFePO4 system to replace my old 12V lead acid system at our cabin on a remote island. Unfortunately my 24V Inverter/Charger/Charge controller delivery has been delayed and I won't get it for several more weeks. In the meantime my old lead acid batteries are...

    Sorry I am not waiting for a 12V BMS, but am waiting for the MPP 24V All-in-one inverter/charger. I have all the other components but could just drop in my 8 Li batteries configured to 2 x 12V to run my old system until the MPP inverter arrives.
