Hi everyone,
Looking to get LifePO4 batteries to work with the Sol-Ark 15K. I'm a bit confused with the open loop / closed loop features. I contacted Sol-Ark and was told that in order to work with this inverter, the battery must "... allow open loop so we can control through settings inside the Inverter"
Do you guys know which batteries are open loop vs closed loop?
Wherever I see specs, I don't see anything saying open or closed loop battery.
My understanding is that open loop batteries don't communicate to the inverter their state of charge and closed loop batteries do (correct me if I'm wrong, I could very well be).
So does that mean that if the Sol-Ark 15K works with open loop batteries, it doesn't communicate with the BMS?
Any help would be very much appreciated...as well as any suggestion on where to buy about 20kw of storage without breaking the bank.
THanks a lot
