    Anyone build a home made server rack?

    I can surely do that! I mounted two copper busbars (calculated my max amps and applied those dimensions) and attached all the positive battery terminals to the positive busbar and all the negatives ofcourse on the negatives using 35mm2 copper welding cable. Both busbars are mounted with...

    Anyone build a home made server rack?

    Well that's quite a catch! Good price there. Thanks for the link. Also, I forgot to mention that in my case the DIY wooden option was best for my limitations in dimensioning. You can all make it fit perfectly.

    Anyone build a home made server rack?

    I made my own wooden rack. Used serverracks go for 400euros over here. Wood was cheaper and just as stirdy. I'm gonna make an adjustment to this soon. I found out that the top battery is getting hotter before the rest of the batteries. Hot air rises (duh). I'm gonna make 3 towers of 4...

    Chinese BMS+Deye 12kw 3 phase help (BMS DR-1363/DR-Power/DR_application)

    Superb! I am in the process of installing Solar Assistant as well. My SA inverter cables and battery cables are arriving tomorrow. So you are using SA and have no communication with the BMS. Do you use 'inverter values' in SA then, or 'Emulated BMS'? In that case, I could try that as well with...

    Chinese BMS+Deye 12kw 3 phase help (BMS DR-1363/DR-Power/DR_application)

    Thank you so much, for the great explanation. I'm still learning. I know I should make a new thread with this question, but now the 'bug' in the software I found kind of pops up naturally for me: Since I think we have the same inverter Deye 12kw 3phase SUN-12K-SG04LP3-EU, I want to ask you...

    Chinese BMS+Deye 12kw 3 phase help (BMS DR-1363/DR-Power/DR_application)

    Alright, I have found some stuff regarding the charging pattern of my Deye 12kw 3phase hybrid inverter. It looks like there is a bug in the software of my Deye inverter. It's not BMS-related. To keep everything neat in terms of forum subjects, I will no longer go into the questions here that...

    Chinese BMS+Deye 12kw 3 phase help (BMS DR-1363/DR-Power/DR_application)

    MisterSandals, It seems to me that you nudged me in the correct way. Thank you for that! It is only recently that I am the proud owner of a Deye 12kw 3-phase hybrid inverter with my 8x 52.1V 100ah batteries. After a lot of tutorials and a lot of information, I am afraid I thought the charge...

    Chinese BMS+Deye 12kw 3 phase help (BMS DR-1363/DR-Power/DR_application)

    Hey Guys! I am having trouble understanding the poorly Chinese-translated BMS of my 51.2V 16S LifePo4 batteries. Just to be sure I want to make clear that the provided manual is poor and does not include any information on the settings inside the BMS. After a few troubles, I managed to make...

    BMS protocol and read-out

    I hope I was not unclear. This topic is regarding AliExpress BMS readouts. The cells are 16x very good grade B lifepo4 cells and the BMS apparently (when reading this topic) is also quite oke. It even has cell balancing apparently. This is exact the reason that I want to have acces to the BMS so...

    BMS protocol and read-out

    Hi Guys, I am sorry to dig this topic up again. But I am having trouble opening the serial connection on Windows. I have unsuccessfully used all types of DR-software versions as generously provided by the people in this thread. I will list my setup and problem below: Setup: 8x 'aliexpress'...
