hey guys!
ok, i installed my Schneider Conext Battery Monitor about 2 weeks ago on my new DIY 1680aH LifePO4 battery bank. (yea, 6x 280aH batteries) and i just finally got a full charge. i've been watching the progress of the charging through Schneider's Insight Cloud and i'm a lil confused as to what i'm seeing. my question:
what *exactly* is the info that is given through the online portal next to the battery? specifically the "time info"? i understand the voltage, SOC and temp data of course. the time is what has me confused!! i assumed it was 'time left till 0% SOC'. most of the time it says XXdays-XXhours-XXminutes. HOWEVER, sometimes it says something WAY lower like "15 minutes". or "35 minutes". or "2 hour, 45 minutes".
does anyone know if it displays how much LONGER it will take to charge to 100%SOC while charging, then when discharging it shows how much longer to 0%SOC? it just seems random and i can't figure it out! i even thought at one point the lower time was 'how long it's been since it "synced" itself to 100%"... but that was a stretch of a guess!
couldn't find anything in the manual(s), or from searching online. and i'm NOT contacting customer service - they've NEVER been any help.
if anyone can shed some light on this, i'd be MOST appreciative!
