    Fault Code 04 on LV2424 - Display Showing Intermittent Spike in Load

    I'm looking for some guidance on my LV2424. I've had this small off-grid system running smoothly for about a year. I've got 6x 240 W panels in 3S2P configuration, charging a battery bank of 4x 12 V LiFePO4 batteries, wired in 2S2P for a 24 V system. It's been great so far, after initial testing...

    Adding 2x 100 A h to existing 24 V system (2x 100 A h batteries)

    Apologies for any redundancy here. I've read several thoughts on the topic but I'm still unsure how to proceed. I've got 2x 12 V 100 A h LiFePO4 batteries in series making a 24 V system. These batteries are less than 6 months old. I bought 2x of the exact same batteries (same manufacturer...

    LV2424: finding the right settings

    I've got 4 x 240 W panels (Voc: 33 V, Isc: 8 A) in 2S2P configuration (~65 V, ~15 A). These all tested OK and were inline with specs. I've also got the LV2424 connected to 2 x 12 V 100 A h batteries in series, 24 V. I went through and adopted most of the settings on...

    Lean-to Shed Solar Power for Year Round Use

    I've got an 8' x 15' shed, with a single pitch roof facing west, but at a 1/4 slope. The roof area is about 150 square feet. I can probably install the panels so they face more southward if needed... It gets pretty darn good sun in the spring/summer months. But I'm in Portland, Oregon, so the...
