I finally received and installed terminal fuse blocks and fuses for my parallel battery bank. The batteries are 12V 100Ah LiFePo4 and three have a South Bend Components terminal fuse block plus 100A MRBF fuse. The primary positive output terminal has a GLOSO double stud terminal fuse block with...

I'm finding it quite difficult to nail down wire size specification for DC Circuit Breakers. I'm most interested in the type we see in PV Combiner Boxes on Amazon as well as WATTS247.com. I've sent queries to several vendors. Anyone on here with hands on experience? I'm running AWG 4 wire 50...

I see T-fuses being mentioned in other threads and even in my own listed below. I understand a T-fuse is a quick acting fuse inside a sand filled cartridge and that it prevents arcing after being blown. I don't understand why I would need a T-fuse for a 12V DC system with 100A output LFP...

My diagram and plans for creating a LiFePo4 12V 4 x 100Ah battery bank. I am choosing a flexible buss bar setup. I thought about a solid copper buss bar but I am concerned about all the terminal connections not being perfectly level and thus creating poor/stressed contacts. This battery bank...

My novice experience with MOSEWORTH LiFePo4 12V 100Ah. The story began with me going down the Solar rabbit hole. We desired a quiet power supply for a family hunting camp but didn’t assess the effects of the surrounding tree canopy. Long story short, I’m now using the DIY Solar equipment at...

Is it a good idea or a bad idea to use a wire shelf for holding my 4 x LiFePo4 100Ah battery bank? This one is plenty ample for the weight and the size is perfect for my project.

This my first and only attempt at Solar generation. It was meant as a cheap quiet alternative to a gas generator at a hunting camp. After diving down into the Rabbit Hole that is solar, we realized the cost to get the solar panels out from under the tree canopy was going to be too much. So,,, I...

I have 3 of these. I've tried solar charging and Renogy Lifepo4 charger and these batteries only charge to 13.0, 13.1, 13.2 volts. Is this okay or have I been hosed? https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B09JFTDBK4/?coliid=I12WB2L337ZLXE&colid=Y2JRCZRGTMLC&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it&th=1

Yes, another grounding thread. I've read some of the resources on this site and my old head is exploding. I will have 2 x 100 watt solar panels in parallel 50ft from house connected with 4AGM copper to a charge controller, LiFeP04 batteries and 1000 watt Inverter. I had not planned to use a...

Running two 4 AWG copper 50 feet from 2 x 100 watt panels to house. What is an appropriate box to attach to my house/siding? I prefer not to cut this wire before it reaches the charge controller.
