Not sure if your aware but there have been recent updates to what that can do.

Great suggestions, thank you. Looks like sunfunkits is the only one with inventory. I decided to just wait for Luyuan. I've never been disappointed with her cells.
I had the same thing happen where it asked to pair again however it remembered the changed password I set. If I had to guess, the apps is probably getting new updates since they just released the new JK Inverter BMS that uses the same app...
I understand what your saying about getting the voltage up to start the charging process. Here at my house in the mountains on the coast I have odd sun hours due to the mountains around me and the trees that block the sun from where I park my trailer. All my screenshots have been from the last...
I havn't started yet but I've been tossing around an almost identical idea using 3 Sol-Ark 12k inverters into my main panel for my business. It's in Cali where power cost a fortune and we get days long blackouts due to an aging grid.
Each inverter is fused at 400 amp per Victron specs. In the beginning I used 300 amp stinger circuit breakers which thinking it would be sufficient however it would pop one after just a minute of AC running so I know the draw is high. After seeing the teardown video of 12v circuit breakers I...
Yes, there is a very long thread where she introduced herself to the forum.

This add actually looks pretty good. I could find nothing to raise any doubt. In fact I noticed a few things that would lean me toward buying from them.
1. They're a 4 year company.
2. They do make the claim "Brand new Grade A 3.2V 310AH".
3. "Longer lifecycle with over 4000 times"...
Waking up to dead batteries instead of balanced batteries makes me think you may have a bad battery. It should only drain power from the other until it balances but if it never balances and just draws power until the other is dead it makes me think the one drawing the power from the other is broken.
In my 5th wheel I have a lot of electronic equipment like Tivo systems and some networking gear that used to work with 110v to 12v adapters for the home. When I put the systems in my RV I wired them directly into the 12v system. I have found that the Tivo units are sensitive to voltage...
Mine is doing the same. When there is less than .9 amps moving through the BMS is starts flashing the screen on and off. As soon as it gets at least .9 amps moving through the BMS either charging or discharging it comes on solid and works normal.
Also, my app doesn't have the display always on switch. I grabbed the latest one of the JKBMS.com site just now and still not there. Where did you get your app version?
EDIT: I was able to get a version with the display switch from the app store. It seems the website version is out of date.
I was chatting with Wendy from EXLIPORC 2 days ago and she mentioned she would have USA stock this week.
This was what she quoted me to the Oregon Coast.
I'm powering mine with a 12v LK280k pack. I should also note that when I remove the data cable it stops flashing. It doesn't seem to be a problem with the power supply. It acts like the data stream is turning it on and off.
Try turning off the "always on" and get the load/charge to less than .8 amps to see if yours does the same. After switching on "Always on" it works fine.
I most likely will unless I decide to put a power switch inline for the display. I'll have 4 of them in an RV that is not full time lived in. If I do leave them on full time I'mm probably put them behind a cabinet door to keep them from lighting up the room. They are quite bright.
Let me give you a picture of where I'm at. I have a 40ft toyhauler as seen in my thumbnail. Last summer I bought the Victron 712 Battery monitor and a Renogy Suitcase panel. Being able to see real time energy use and charging and Will's videos sparked a whole big thing with solar, inverters...
I have a question for you.
Can I parallel two Victron 100 amp auto transformers to get higher capacity?
I have and Onan 5500 watt 110v single phase generator feeding into one Victron 100 amp Auto transformer right now that then feeds into 2 10k Quattros to make split phase output.
The problem...

I think you solved this for me. I kinda had a "Duh" moment after reading your reply.
Instead of me running all the generator power through the auto I should hook one Quattro #1 straight to the generator out and only run the spilt phase Quattro #2 through the auto. That will cut the...
