Trouble free so far, just like you said. Really haven't put it under any serious load though. I've set it up to power a place that hasn't been built yet. Will report back in several months.Good info.
How are you liking it so far?

How are you liking it so far?
I found the difference in IR and the difference in Ah Capacity both contributed. 230Ah is only 75% of the capacity of the 304's.305ah pack values different than the 230ah packs, I'm assuming that's why the 305ah pack % is much lower than the 230ah's.
It's the newest of all of them but I had reset theis the 305Ah pack newer? (only 13 Cycles)
JBD.Which bms do you have? Jk bms' percent can be wrong until you get it back to either 0% or 100%. Even then it's still not totally accurate. I wouldn't worry too much about it
Only somewhat out of balance. Did you get the bms from battery hookup?JBD.
I'm not really worried about it. I'm just annoyed by it.
I'm even more annoyed they are laid out as bottom, top, middle ?
Slowly getting there but I'm only charging ~75a.
Edit - wow they got out of balance not seeing a full charge in a long while.
No. The first 2 came from Docan with the 230ah cells, the 3rd 300A came from JBD Ali store.Only somewhat out of balance. Did you get the bms from battery hookup?
No. I top balanced the 230ah over a year ago, I put the 305ah into service without top balancing.Did you get the active balancers ?
Are all of the panels the same age and model / manufacturer? Are they all at the same angle?Another noteworthy item: I have two seperate systems that are within a quarter mile of one another. One victron and one srne clone. Srne system has something like 1100w more pv than the victron setup, but victron out performs it on cloudy days. Here's the results from today, which was heavily cloudy and rainy, with 0 direct sunshine. View attachment 180846
Victron has all the same model. Srne has 2 arrays with each being different. If your point is that there are too many variables, then you are correct. I don't think you live very far from me. In fact I think I saw you mention in another post you got your panels from the same place in jersey I did. I'm sure you're seeing the same bad weather I am. I'd be curious to see your max output as a percentage of rated maxAre all of the panels the same age and model / manufacturer? Are they all at the same angle?
Can you share details on both set ups? Not for argument sake, just curiosityAnother noteworthy item: I have two seperate systems that are within a quarter mile of one another.

MBAs soon as I got SA back online I'll grab some graphs from today. (hope it's just my hot spot).
CLR Solutions?
The weather has been so great I'm charging from the grid again ?
What the hell my solar assistant doesn't show individual mppts. How did you do this@nickj graphs below are from today and 11-28.Today being the lower production, the fog was thick till late morning then the clouds...
I was getting at the point of array angle having a huge impact in output.
MPPT1 has 305W LG Neons, 6s2p facing south and angled appropriately for winter.
MPPT2 has 315W QCells 9s2p, one 9s string S the other W. Both are roof mounted and poor winter angles.
I'll likely add another MPPT to the system, or use the TP6048, when I get the new pallet of panels mounted and another array up.

What version are you running?What the hell my solar assistant doesn't show individual mppts. How did you do this
Iirc that's the latest stable version. You can join the beta, latest version is 2023-11-29.2023-08-16
that's what it says under software version
