Like the thread/video concept. Keep ‘em coming Will.

Congrats!

I have the exact same unit. Just use a cutoff lamp cord and plug one of the wires into it. This can also be done with a cig port plug. I put a wire nut on the second wire.

Yes!

Which one?

Tom Brady retired.

That was awesome!

Twice as many chances to shock yourself.

The batteries are brand new. It was the initial charge to top off before I top balance. Not sure a BMS is required.

I charged the same battery in a 12v config (4cells) last night. I used a 12v 15a victron smart charger. When I went out this morning they were in the bulk absorption mode and when I tested the votage on cell was 3.83v, another was 3.36. I immediately turned off the charger which was running...

I live in Houston, we don’t have a problem.?

To me it’s not that difficult. Check your house meter every day for a month, look at your electric bill for the last year and use a kilowatt meter on specific appliances and you should have a good idea what your needs are. Build to a multiplier based on your solar input. This would probably get...

Ac unit to cool, Mr. Buddy heater to, well, heat.

So how would you do it?

Lol

It was a great experience dealing with Jade. I picked up Patrick’s batteries since I live in Houston - about 6 miles from the warehouse. I was able to pick a random box, open it and test the cells. Thank you.

thank you . I have picked up all of his cells. We are good to go.

Other than reading the complaints of others (Im not saying they aren’t real), what specific issues have you had with Renogy? Go to Amazon and look up any Victron component. You can find bad reviews and complaints.

I disagree. I have several Renogy components that have performed flawlessly. What specific issues have you had?

If your AC runs at 41 amps you may have a problem. Your startup current could and should be much higher.

I redid my duramax 12000 dual fuel into a tri fuel (nat gas). I bought a regulator on line and did the install myself. Search YouTube for videos and there will be links to the sellers website. I have used this extensively and the are no dangers that I am aware of.

The Battery (Battleborn 100ah) hit 13.6 and never rose above that charge. Amp clamp would show 12-20 amps regardless.

You don’t have to have one it just makes makes measuring current easy. this so the one I bought for $25.00. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CXFWYM2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

How much to ship the batteries to 77024?

I have a buddy that may be interested. I have forwarded this to him.

Why not just purchase a couple of 200 watt suitcase panels? The renogy I just bought has a good controller.

I am assuming you are using an amp clamp meter. Having just gone thru this with a Schumacher charger - the current circulates thru the battery and is released as heat from the charger. Volatge seeks equilibrium…once the battery reaches the chargers peak voltage, that’s it. No more increase no...

Many car chargers limit voltage to +/-13.5 volts. Not enough to top off Lifepo battery.

I am amazed at the level of help you can get from strangers on a forum. Awesome!

Where?

Where is the Houston warehouse located? Looking for the physical address.

I f’n hate FedEx. In my are they area by far the most incompetent shipper.

I am charging my battleborn 100ah battery on a 20 amp charger on agm setting. After more than enough time I can’t get the battery above 13.4v. Am I doing something wrong?
