    Which inverter for 48v system to power two-phase 240v AC appliances?

    that not a big deal 1200w per day, 1200w per hour is differant, I prefer leaving house panel from the grid as is. Only running seperate panel for off grid. both panels are 200amp each. same Qo circuit breakers easier :-)

    Which inverter for 48v system to power two-phase 240v AC appliances?

    I have 2 sunny Islands to get 220v I feel my batteries can not run both 24/7 could I run one at 110v off grid, have most of the house connected to 110v and run the other 110 connected to the grid for 220V to run the Drier, stove .ac, or just run the 220 from the grid and everything else off...

    $72 ANT BMS: Current Report by BMS is only half of the actual current

    I agree, I have 2 and it is a pain, when you go to set up which is which. problem with Chinese software is when they design it. they think it is perfect and move on. Bata = final addition. So a lot of equipment made in China lacks proper proven software. I think of all the military stuff they...

    Avoid This Seller ... Henny Liu's store

    keep an eye on the expected delivery date, a lot of problems is shipping the logistic side since covid19 began. Aliexpress normally gives a fair time. The reason they close it and mark as received the seller gets paid. Buyers do not bother checking off received, leaving the seller without his...

    $72 ANT BMS: Current Report by BMS is only half of the actual current

    Jason could you send me snap shots of your setup with byd battery. it would greatly help. also I screwed up when doing a quick test with the ant.bms I did not hook up the blue battery cable. it showed all the cells reading except cell 1. I thought I fried something or did something wrong to...

    Finally got my replacement ant.bms decided to test each wire from the byd, had 2 not reading anything!!! the connection was clamped solder then riveted. poor-quality wire. or to me too thin. will retest the old ant.bms

    $72 ANT BMS: Current Report by BMS is only half of the actual current

    sad, that these were sold at an untested rate, instead of 4k + showing around 1/2 as what was claimed. my first alarm was some suppliers selling these byd with low amp bms with it.. Everyone was buying 200a daly for their DIY projects. I even think 80a was overkill. Sometimes seeing someone...

    $72 ANT BMS: Current Report by BMS is only half of the actual current

    finally got my replacements, and my cheap trusty voltmeter decided to go strange, if a battery shows 3.2 v my meter shows 4.7v it must be in lithium cobalt mode, lol so i ordered another and no it not a fluke. The ant.bms took just over a month from China very happy, will hook up when i get my...

    Why do DC systems not make use of grounding to the same extent as with AC

    it also does not hurt to ground anyways, alls it takes is some water and you touch it, if you notice all the UL controllers, inverters are grounded. maybe for lightening and or for getting shocked. better safe than sorry.

    $72 ANT BMS: Current Report by BMS is only half of the actual current

    Even the engineers at Daly say must be the same length, Then again you look at BYD 24v battery it does not follow the same rule.

    Video of BYD buses

    I think this company is doing too much too fast, Surprised anyone buying the product. do they not check previous buyers? then again I bought my BYD from watching the 100 dollar kw video review from David P. he should change the title to 100 dollars for 0.5kw

    Can you Parallel smart BMS??

    Kevin the one who always passes the questions to daly engineer. Delt with that a few times, no thank you. Bought 15 bms from them. Went with ant bms instead. Will got a Daly low temp cut off BMS that didn't work.

    BYD 24V LiFePo4 Battery Modules

    Your neg goes to cell 1- 3.2v, number 8+ wire goes to 8th cell volts total around 24v give or take. Use a volt meter to make sure cell 1 3.2 v Cell 2 6.4v cell 3 9.6v etc

    Can you Parallel smart BMS??

    logistics is probably the issue, my bms first order in early January was canceled out of the blue, ordered from another supplier, sat for 3 weeks before being picked up. as time goes on it be a lot harder to get anything,, supply chain :-(

    BYD BMS

    Better a fuzzy picture, than nothing at all. The replacements re-ordered middle of February finally left the country. I can see logistics must be a nightmare there with the Corona. Nobody wants to touch anything.

    solar panel efficiency and comparing panels?

    I bought Sunpower 327 for the quality, and for the minimum depreciation of loss over 25 years so to get 80% that would be over 40 years a pretty good investment for used panels

    solar panel efficiency and comparing panels?

    to me it is easy what is the best deal at the time when you factor in the quality of the product. polycrystalline-based solar panels is typically 14-16% Monocrystalline silicon solar panels are space-efficient. Since these solar panels yield the highest power outputs up to 22% more the high...

    Another Deep Cycle test on BYDs

    kind of sucks, to me with BYD seems they were not well balanced, or they kick the shit out of them. All BMS on the market goes first wire is negative, the rest connect o the positive of each cell to monitor the balancing. BYD is setup the opposite, first wire is to the positive the rest...
