For Solar ........Aluminum Channel is popular. It can be cut and drilled for bolting Many use the 2" or 1.5" galvanized pipe for their anchor poles(better corrosion resistance than painted carbon steel, stronger than aluminum)-Others use old fashioned wood 6X6 or similar. Common connection...

I am going to correct you on this statement of it being their "LAST" famous words.. Typically the folks that do this come onto this forum and rant allot and blame blame so they have lots more words that are just as famous after they bloat their cells so by definition it is not their LAST...

It appears that someone somewhere has a sail boat with a dead battery.

No, You missed it then! All arrived on the same slow boat from China to LA Port of Entry. But FEDEx decided to send them from LA in FOUR DIFFERENT FEDEx Deliveries. One went by a completely different route to Sacramento First. One Truck and Driver-one opportunity to mess things up Four Trucks...

My Experience for 20 cells Cost a tad over $110 delivered to California USA -including DDP including Credit Card 2.9% added fee The shipping method required no action on my part other than patience, lots and lots of patience! Donguan chose a shipping agent that arranged everything for a...

Has anyone contacted EVE directly on this ceasing business with individual sells around the world? Which sellers are stating this to be true? I don't think the problem is with the sellers but with the buyers. A major manufacture uses a secondary channel market to maximize profits per Adam...

SUPPORT HELP PLEASE I have an old Samsung 7" tablet with Android 4.4 that I can dedicate to my battery box. The lastest 3.1.1015 can no be parsed on the 4.4 but does work on a old LARGE SAMSUNG 10" Android 5.1 tablet dedicated for other use. I did skimread through all the pages of this thread...

I am assuming you are going to use a BMS. If so most of them will destroy your bottom balance by top balancing them passively by trickle drain down every time they are fully charged, some passive have as much a 150 ma drain down. Some folks here use BMS with active balancing that uses 1 Amp or...

I don't know about other manuals but I thank you for the one you posted. I have the 800W MPP. panels, & batteries set up as a back up UPS so I am saving the manual you posted. I agree a "Better" service manual or for other units would be helpful. As for the horror stories ..... its the Chinese...

Eleven years with no idea and no maintenance is on the long time side of things. The answer to your question: 72Kw-hr for 22 days on a 4.2KW system is totally unacceptable unless you are way up in the artic circle during winter (22 hours of night) or you see your neighbor NOAH building and arc...

If your batteries are new, matched, and balanced the only definable gain with two BMS's is redundancy of system. That is if something happens too one cell or BMS you can still limp along with "half a battery" if you absolutely can not be down at all and having at least half a pack has huge value...

Yep, .....yes sir...... If you can find the same with a different Brand name on it like the one in this thread (HABOTEST) it can be $10 cheaper-if your time is worth that $10 of searching. .....as stated ............if you will only use in doors the one recommended on Will Prowse's sight is...

Not enough information Probably perfectly normal! No worries. Possibly something amiss like cable/lead/connections. Most common reason if amiss is the resistance on one lead/pack/battery/etc is higher than the other lead/pack/battery/etc ......with most likely cause being imabalance from user...

Yep.....voltage and amperage is conditioned by the MPP to a lower voltage and limited current.......set by the settings..... to what the battery likes to digest without damaging them during charging. That's why you spend all that money for this thing. It will stop the charging when the battery...

..............Huh????????????? The Cheap Chinese imports are $250 for such and also my web page says $1,552.32 for the slim one-But as you said AUSD-not USD, the poor Aussie money keeps going down down down......sucks to have those types of dollars these days. Plus on the video one of the...
