    LIFEPOWER4 and EG4LL 48v packs work with anything we've tried so far

    And what about me? I don’t raise a bunch of hell over all of this and apparently that just leaves me in the dark? I know mine is a 12v not a 48v but I have a legitimate problem. I have sent to tech support via email and had no follow up either. Now past my 30 day return window. Below was my last...

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    Ok, I’m back off vacation so can join back in the conversation. Well as you know first of all it won’t even start the system up so doesn’t much matter what I am running, but here are a couple items that kill it when I get the battery running (it is 1 single rack system as previously shown...

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    Sorry Gary I should have gone back and found the post, I was referencing the pre charge system because some have questioned if the 12v version has one. As for a preload test this is what I used NTE Electronics 25W030 Cermet Wire Wound Resistor, 5% Tolerance, Axial Lead, 25W, Flameproof, 30 Ohm...

    According to SS tech support “it has a precharge resistor in the batteries to handle inrush current”

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    My guess is it’s built in and I’m screwed, I’ve actually given up on trying to figure it out. It’s simple it doesn’t work, now the question is what if anything SS is willing to do.

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    Based on your statement above EG4 max 200amp recommended 60amp Weize max peak 250amp allowed max 100amp Battleborn is 100 Amp Continuous current, 200 Amp Surge Current Victrons own battery is 100 Amp Continuous current, 200 Amp Surge Current Both the Weize and a friends Battleborn have run...

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    1) correct it doesn’t start my inverter 2) are you certain they don’t? I’ve tried precharging as well but it has not helped 3) no errors in the log, unless I am somehow looking at the wrong thing. But none on any tab

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    I have people asking about the EG4 in RV forums I am in. They are the same as I was and ready to pull the trigger on the EG4. Now with the issues I’ve had they are asking me a lot of questions and weather or not they should look at something else. At this point I am uncertain how to reply as I...

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    So I am guessing you checked the other day and discovered you did not have a Victron Multiplus 2? I never heard back after you said you thought you had one.

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    Yes it does feel as if I’m being ignored. consider mine is a 5th wheel set up, what I am calling a decent load is any of the following. any one of these by itself will trip the safety, vacuum, microwave, Airconditioning (13000 btu roof). I am currently running 2 Weize 100ah batteries from...

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    Well I appreciate that Kolds issue has been somewhat resolved. I would however like to know about my issue. Did you test with the Victron Multiplus 2? As I stated I would, I connected my old AGM battery and my inverter fired right up. I also tried a buddies Battleborn who was in town it worked...

    Schneider xw pro 6848 not powering up with eg4 lithium battery

    That would be great, I can’t seem to get past the issue I am having with the 12V version. I can during the day get the system to start up with mppt Producing solar power, but if it’s not running the battery will kick into safe mode at any attempt to start up. The other issue I seem to have is if...

    Victron Multiplus 2 with Lifepower4 12v

    from that post The problem with everything your suggesting Hedges, the pre-charge circuit that "we think" is causing the low voltage is IN the batteries and hooking external cables and resistors up doesn't bypass that. We don't know what triggers the built in Pre-charge timer...

    Victron Multiplus 2 with Lifepower4 12v

    Have been reading about some issues with the Lifepower4 and was wondering if anyone is running one with a Multiplus 2? I am having issues with the battery starting the inverter. I get a clicking in the Lifepower then it goes to safe mode without starting the inverter. If I start with shore power...
