Hobby Farm in N Idaho
I did not top balance them. We are an off-grid and I cant take my system offline. We were running on 8 non-K 280 eve cells for 1.5years. I bought the new 280k cells and charged them to within .005 +/- a few. I built the pack installed the new 48v system and started charging. Right off the K cells jump to .010 higher. I turned off solar charging and set balance voltage to 3.0v to allow it to balance over night. The cell delta in the AM was .010. The cells looked the same at .010 different during mild discharge.
Once the sun came up and solar power started coming in (5a) I noticed the cells all had the same voltage. 3.33 +/- .001. Why would it change under charge like that suddenly? The cell delta dropped to .005.
I would order 8 more "K" versions to run with the new "K's" but they are out of stock.
Have any of you had success K with non K?
