These equalizers say they are for 4 batteries in series, but would it work for 4x 12v 100ah batteries in 2s2p or 2p2s? Or hypothetically would it work with 4 batteries in parallel? Or for some reason for it to work, do all the batteries have to be in one series string?

I have 4x 12v 100ah batteries in 2s2p for 24v. Today my inverter set off an alert, so I checked the battery voltages, and putting a volt meter on each battery, the voltage is different. On both of the 2s batteries that make the 24v one is 14.1 and the other is 13.3. How is that even possible...

I just received a reliable brand 24v 3000 watt inverter, and the fans are constantly turning on and off. On for 26 seconds, off for 10 seconds and repeats that. My current load is a midea u ac, that is pulling less than 600 watts, and a mini fridge that pulls 100 watts, so ~700 watt load on a...

I am wiring up a breaker box for an off grid cabin. No grid power of any sort on the property at all. Do I bond neutral and ground in the breaker box? The ground will be wired to an 8' copper rod outside. I read some other posts and they said adding a generator complicates things, weather the...

I have an mpp 1012LV that I just set up, connected to 3, parallel 12v 100ah lifepo4 batteries all connected with 2awg copper. The display says 13.7 volts. My volt meter on the mpp lugs say 13.5 volts, and each battery shows 13.48 at the terminals. It has been in the sun all day yesterday and...

I have a situation that I am unsure how to resolve. I have 2 mpp solar lv2424 all in one charge controller, inverters, and a victron 75/10 charge controller, all connected through buss bars to 3 24v 100ah lifepo4 batteries. This setup has been up and running for almost a year. Now, none of the...

I just purchased an Aims CON120AC12/24DC charger. In the listing and in the part number it shows it will change 12 or 24 volt batteries. I have seen Will charge 24 volt batteries with the very same charger. Here comes the weird part. It has a green sticker on the box that says it only supports...

I have an lv2424 with 2) 24v 100ah batteries in parallel. 9 230 watt solar panels wired in 3s3p. Each solar panel has a ocv of 37, so that puts it at 111 ocv, which is under the max voltage of the lv2424. I also have a 4550 watt inverter generator, that I run to the ac input on the lv2424, and...

I have an mpp solar hv2424, and a Westinghouse igen4500df generator. I remember seeing somewhere that you can wire the lv2424 to start a generator, but I can't find it now. On the lv2424 there is the plug marked nc c no, and that would be the relay to tell the generator to start once battery...

I ordered a bunch of 3.2v cells. I ordered them at different times, as I could afford them. Now I am ready to assemble them in 24 volt batteries, so I put a voltage meter on them, before I top balance them. Below are the voltage readings. .009 .035 .046 .233 .259 1.463 2.033 2.538 2.656 2.938...

I am currently top balancing 8, 3.2v 100ah battery hookup packs all hooked up in parallel. I set the power supply to 3.65v, and letting it finish. After these are top balanced, I will hook them up in series (24v), then hook up the bms. When I go to add this new pack to my existing pack that...

Can I see some pics of your battery banks, that are made from the battery hookup 100ah packs? I have 5 of them that are all going to connected in parallel, and just looking for inspiration, and ideas on what you used to connect them. Thanks!

I have an mpp brand 1012lv-ms. It has a max voltage of 102, and max watts of 500. I have watched many of Will's videos, including the one in the beginners resources link on this page, where he mentions over paneling, but I am not sure how much I can go over the rated max watts. I found some...

I bought two of these packages from battery hookup to make a 24v 100ah 4s2p battery. Should I hook all of the packs up in parallel to let them ballance for a couple days, or should I top charge them? I have seen Will use an adjustable dc power supply to top charge, but I don't have one. Should I...

Hello all. My first post here. I am wanting to build a solar generator based on Will's milk crate 2.0. Would it be okay to run three of these 12v 20ah batteries in parallel, instead of the one 12v 50ah battery in the video...
