    Voltage Drop

    how do i know what the charging on the individual batteries is doing. I say all of a sudden becuase the system is setup to shut off when ever the voltage go to 48v and and that never happeend once until it did a week or so ago.

    Voltage Drop

    not sure how to do that but i figure there screwed, going to just run solar during the day and switch to main power at night. Solar guy by me has quoted me for lithium batteries AES Rackmount by Discover anyone heard of them before

    Voltage Drop

    As for float and charge everything set to what rolls told me too. Which is basically what you said. But I pay attention. To the voltage in the am closely all the time. Never changed it for temp. Coldest it gets is 60 high is 98

    Voltage Drop

    What's temperature compensation? Live in Bahamas. Thought agms would handle heat

    Voltage Drop

    I never let voltage drop below 48 ever lots of times woul run generator for two hours into evening. It's just odd how this seems to of happened quickly

    Voltage Drop

    So I have an outback system. One day power died in house. Turned system off and on and power game back on. There was an error that said battery voltage error. I have a 48v system consists on 16 6v 415amp rolls agm batteries. At the begining of the day voltage usually reads 48.6 . I noticed...

    Looking for Lithium Ion

    I am years away from getting some lithium ion batteries hopefully atleast 6. I have 16, 415 amp 6v agms now that are a good, but I figure when they start to die will need to procure something new. And I know this is far off, but I figure I would like a atleast 20kw of usable power, does anyone...

    Solar Combiner ?

    The cables to the box are 8gauge. But the solar combiner to charge controller is 80ft if 6gauge. Occasional snap.can drop it to high 40s thats rare. Usually mid 60s for about a month but once sun is out almost always 70s. Need some extra juice as I need to run some window unit air cons as its...

    Solar Combiner ?

    Says it maxes at 150. I just need a 5 prong bus bar it can easily hold 5 breakers

    Solar Combiner ?

    Outback 80amp charge controller. They said no more then 15 270w panels. As for bahamas changes weekly One week we're in 100 lock down can't even go to food stores or get water then were open only to be locked down again. I think are prime Minister is bi polar. I noticed some people made...

    Solar Combiner ?

    Can't add 16 panels as that would be 2 much and a series of 5 would have the volts to high

    Solar Combiner ?

    So I have 12 panels, 3 in series giving me 9amps 90volts x 4. and this go into a combiner box. This is my question I want to add 3 more panels, but I only have 4 prong bus bar, can I still add the other circuit breaker and use piece of 8ga cable to link them all?

    Wire gauge?

    Your in for info you probably dont want to know. Our code just got upgraded to canadas 2 years ago, no idea why. But they only inspect your house when you go to get main power put in that is it. I am living in dorian aftermath, they still dont have the sub cable to cross the ocean they forgot to...
