No I set the program on the 8s setting for a 24v system. You can still review these settings. The only strange thing it says is that the battery system is 200ah. In series it should be just 100. So that seems somewhat bizarre. Other than that all settings under the 8s are correct.

SCC = eveper 30a
Inverter = generic 800 watt 24v
Batteries= 2 WEIZE brand 100ah 12v connected in series.
Load info = maybe 500 watts constant
System volt = 24v
I only have 4 100w panels hooked up at the moment. I don't think I'm at risk for magic smoke really. Batteries have their own BMS. The...
Just bought a couple used 215watt panels for 20 bucks each. The max voltage is high enough to the point where I'm either gonna hit 95% and be uncomfortable hooking it to my 40amp controller in series or just have to go parallel.
Anyhow, why are the older panels such higher voltage?
1. Yes. Although it seems like the batteries have never been able to charge fully. Epever seems to always read 27 volts and goes into float. I'm just starting to test out the system so even though it seemed to work it really hasnt been tested fully.
2. No. The inverter just shut down, voltage...
Thanks for all this. I think my first test will be switching to manual battery settings. One question. Where it says batter capacity. I have two 100ah batteries in series. Should my battery capacity setting be set to 100 or 200?
Hello. The epever newer charge controllers have 4s and 8s settings for 12v and 24 volt respectively.
I have two 12v batteries in series so 24v system total. Do I simply use the setting for 24v even though the single batteries are 12v?
Thanks.

The new models have a setting for lifepo 12 and 24 systems. The setting is 4s and 8s I believe. I also can see the settings themselves. Nothing seems off really.
So. I'm wondering more about the 4s and 8s settings. The very little information about these just says one is for 12v lifepo and the other for 24. Makes sense.
But the 8s setting puts the system ah at 200. For me this is not correct as my batteries are 100ah 12 volt in series. Maybe this...

I noticed that the load is switching on sometime during the night. I think this is some setting for grid power? Like on the epever controllers the main display shows solar panels arrows and battery when charging but if you press enter the arrows also go to the light bulb with a W in it. Maybe I...
So, I uploaded the battery config that was suggested above. Seems to have saved. That said on my battery monitoring main screen the max and min voltages are something different. Is this just like the max and min of the day?
So a week ago I got a bit frustrated and bought a new inverter for 12v to just bring it down so I can put the batteries in parallel. Ready to just try that out. As I think this might be better.
Your emp suggestion is a good wartime thread idea. Haha.
It's a newer tracer. Yes, it already knows the voltage.
You still have to tell it what kind of battery you have and set it's specifications. I just need to know if I tell it 12v or 24v. I have two 12v batteries in series
Have seen some references to this issue on the forums.
Today I noticed that my lithium 12v WEIZE brand batteries in series were sitting at 27 volt float. This seems to be normal. Although, the scc was reading no charging from my panels. This is off the grid no external power.
I turned on my...
I assumed this was right and it wouldn't even understand there were two separate batteries once in series. The whole selection for different voltages tripped me up though. Thanks.
