    DIY BMS for Victron ESS with Lynx Shunt

    My DIY batteries packs need a DIY BMW. I have a fantastic Victron ESS system with a Lynx Shunt that provides SoC and fire basics alarms. I think it is now time to - monitor voltage at each cell - (nice to have) do active/passive balancing the DIYBMS looks sexy, but according to my research I...

    Quick one: unused solar panel on the roof, better short or open circuit?

    Thanks! they are wired and the panels connectors are safe! You guys are pulling in the direction of leaving them open.... I still think that the panels will suffers less in a shorted circuit condition... ohh, I have to admit I wanted to hear as many opinions as possible... so forgive me...

    Quick one: unused solar panel on the roof, better short or open circuit?

    Hi, my life is a mess. I just installed solar panels on the roof but the rest of the system is still work in progress.... It's a long story... According to what I know solar panels act like current pumps, so it would be better for them to short + and - together to let the current flow...

    EVE LF280K orientation

    Yes, I took two years of Chinglesh when I was on college. anyway There is no liquid dancing free in a LiFEPO4, you can orient it and mount as you wish. Just make sure to not create pressure spots in the battery case which could compromise the insulation.

    Lifepo4 on its side ??

    Yes I know it is an old thread, but I think it is useful to close a circle. Here the feedback from the manufacturer representative Amy about orientation for the EVE LF280K Orientation does not matter.

    EVE LF280K orientation

    In the LF280K product specification I have (LF280K-72174 version B, see attachment), there is nothing regarding the mounting orientation. If it would be critical because of the electrolyte touching the plates, they surely would have drop a line in the document. I mean they specified the clamping...

    My Victron ESS System, help me to configure it

    I finally started to play with the Victron toys I bought from you almost a year ago. This epic delay is due to the solar companies which are struggling to understand what a Victron ESS system is. It's basically a DC coupled solar ESS system, no feed into the grid. I have a Lynx power in, shunt a...

    Building my 48(3Px16S)x280Ah EVE Bank in ESS Victron Energy

    Just got a "waitaminute"moment, I had to post it. I think I solved the above dilemma... to make the Lynx Power In perfectly symmetric. Let`s say the rest of the system is connected to the right of the Lynx Power In Example with 3 battery packs (my case) A, B and C 2 --> A+ 3 --> B+ 4 --> C+ 6...

    Building my 48(3Px16S)x280Ah EVE Bank in ESS Victron Energy

    Yeah... I will buy a Lynx smart shunt, and two power in and a DC distrib module.... One power in for the 3 batteries coming in with fuses hack (I abandoned the circuit breaker idea). The other power in for the 3 Smart Solar charger. The DC dist. for the two Quattro inverter.... It's money...
