I don’t know enough about pros of compression. I knew I needed a way of picking them up, and figured why not compress so I can pick them up 4 at a time and accomplish both. Glad Overkill responded. That was helpful. And thanks Zwy for the possible options on panel configurations. VERY helpful.

Again, I am a novice. So take my answer accordingly. aHr, AH, or amp hour is capacity or is a calculation of how many amps of electricity they can supply over a given period of time. Whereas amps are the highest amount of electricity they can provide at a given moment for a short period of time...

Very very very helpful. Thanks for detailed reply and the time it took to write. I promise it was useful and appreciated. Sounds like my wallet will be happier also. Press on my friend.

I am on the same journey with you…. Growatt 24v was just delivered, waiting on 200ah batteries to arrive. I am looking at the Overkill BMS so i will be following your post to see what advice you are given. May I ask a question? I will have 16 Lifepo4 batteries. Planning on paralleling two sets...

I had already decided I wanted to do a 24v system. Then at some point someone wiser than me suggested redundancy in the battery pack. So instead of doing a larger 8s setup I decided to get 16 batteries and make two 24v batteries and just parallel them together. The idea was that in case one...

I am a newb also, but have the Growatt with two sets of 200ah 24v lifepo4. Two sets of 8s. I think the simple answer is yes. But I think you possibly misunderstood the Overkill BMS. It’s 24v at 100a (meaning amp, not amp hour) amperage is not capacity? You could have as many amp hours as you...

I would love to know what you find out. I think the max AC charging of a Growatt 24v is 80A. The max solar charging current is 100A. https://www.growatt.com/upload/file/contents/2019/07/5d2eee093f00b.pdf

Thanks for the reply and I love the pics!! Clean work. I also opted for Ian and Watts247, good to hear of your experience. Now I am just hoping I didn't screw up and order the batteries from a poor choice in China. I have another 3 weeks to worry about that. I stumbled on this forum AFTER...

Thanks Zwy!! That’s how i configured mine. Two sets of 100a BMSs, but mine is two 24v setups then paralleled. 8s 200ah. Or 400ah at 24v. Now if I can just figure out what I want to do for solar panels, and how my local county officials will respond if and when they find them on my house. I...
