can anyone advise what figures i should enter into a shunt monitor with a 100ah agm leisure battery

thinking of getting a slow cooker rated between 150w to 200w to run off my set up i have in my garage. i have 2x 120w solar panels going into a 100 amp leisure battery via a 30 amp solar controller. also have a 600w pure sine inverter connected to the system Crock-Pot, use between 75 and 150...

What size of cables and fuse. Have a solar set up in my garage more of a hobby than a serious off grid system 2x 120w panels 100ah agm leisure battery busbar and a diesel heater. Am going to introduce a 600w inverter to use to charge my power tools/garden tools Have purchased a amp usage...

my system comprises of 2x 120w solar panels 1x 100 amp agm battery. battery has a fused lik and runs to busbars. what size inverter would be ok and is it ok to wire direct to the busbars. will be charging dewalt power tool batteries and using a dremel

When fitting an isolation switch for the battery does it have to be as near ti the battery post as possible. I have the positive lead going from the post to an anl fuse then to a busbar does the isolator need to be sat between the post and fuse or fuse to busbar or does it not matter

On my plug in battery charger I have a setting for standard lead acid batteries and another for AGM batteries. On the SCC it has 3 battery charger settings 1 = GEL General lead-acid 2 = 4S X 3.2V 12.8V LiFeP04 3 = SLI maintenance free lead-acid I have set it to 3 as it's a sealed AGM battery...

On the renogy shunt it shows the time remaining when the battery is supplying power to a device. Does the figure change to time remaining to fully charge the battery when there is no load on the battery as in the pic below Manual says nothing about this

Bought a renogy shunt and when you first set it up you fully charge the battery and set the shunt at 100% Now this would be ok for a lithium battery that could be run to 0% but not for an AGM battery Was thinking it might be better to set the 100A Battery at a full capacity of 50A so once it got...

Have put this device between my solar panels 2x 120watt and my 30amp SCC Its main use is to be able to disconnect the PV to the SCC by throwing the switch manually I have noticed it's an ac unit. Will it be ok to use for my purpose

Setting up my system using a 100Amp AGM leisure battery. Just installed a renogy shunt monitor but has high voltage and low voltage along with alarm Ah Can you tell me what would be the ideal setting to enter Also do these same figures need to be entered into the scc

If you have a SCC connected to a busbar then to a AGM battery to charge the battery the volts/amps go towards the battery. If then the same cable is taking volts and amps from the battery to the same busbar then onto a device to power it Does it not matter if there is volts and amps travelling...

Decided to use 8awg cable from my battery to my SCC via an 8mm stud busbar. Battery to busbar using SC copper terminals no issue Can connect the cable to the busbar using same sc connector but the issue lies at the SCC end As it's only a 4.5 to 5mm ring terminal or fork connection. Is there a...

If I was going to buy an inverter what size power would I need for tools in the workshop. Probably be using bench grinder, charging power tool batteries Also would 8agw from battery to the inverter via a busbar and fuse be ok

Not used these before so advice needed Do the connection range only go from sc6 to sc10. No sc8 Was going to use 10agw cable but have measured my shunt terminals and they are 10mm. On looking at the SC terminal chart on the internet I cant get a 10awg to 10mm only sc6-8 So am thinking I will...

Been looking at the wiring from the battery to the SCC using 10awg. The shunt, anl fuse and busbars use a combination of 6mm or 8mm posts The issue comes to connecting to the SCC which uses a red fork type connection. How do you go from 10agw cable to a small red fork connection

Why dont they make devices with the option of 6mm post or 8mm posts to mount ring terminals From battery terminal I'm going from 6mm ring to 8mm ring for a shunt device then 8mm ring back to 6mm ring at the busbar Then 6mm ring from busbar to a fork connection at the SCC Is there a shunt with...

What size posts are on anl fuse holders

Was recommended to use a 25 amp fuse between the battery and busbar on my system. Was thinking I need to use the anl type fuse but 25 amp seems hard to get am I ok using a 30 amp SCC is rated at 30 amp and panels will put at around 15 amp Also I have a diesel air heater that draws around 10amps...

Have a cable supplied with outer casings markings 2x 4mm 300/500 volts Will this be the same or better than 10 awg

If you had a power bank in your home that took the cheaper tariff electric at night and powered your electrics during the day without the use of solar would you ever break even before the power bank expired

Do I need one and if so would it need to be 20Ah type System comprises of 2 x 120w PV at 6.75Ah each running in parrellel Would this be ok if needed

Have ordered the renogy 500ah shunt to monitor my system. Should there be an inline fuse between the power going from the battery to the display Couldn't find any info on wether this needs doing

My original kit came with a solar panel 120w, 30amp SC and PV leads and a battery lead. It seems the pv leads are 12 awg but there was no info to tell me what awg the battery to SC was. I looked on the net and it seems you can buy circular tool to find out thickness of single core cable but not...

Hi what size cable do I need from the battery to the pos and negative busbar. Will be around 18" lenth Also do you connect the solar panels to the busbar and any other devices from the busbar ie a12v heater or inverter

I have a solar controller that came with a kit from eco worthy. It shows a picture of a battery on the LCD. Does anyone know if the amount of bars in the battery tell the state of charge low medium or high or the amount of power the solar panel is putting into the battery. The instruction manual...

Fuses and circuit breakers. 2x 120watt solar panels 1 x 30amp solar controller and 1x 100amp battery Do I need to put a fuse or circuit breaker (20 amp fuse c/ b) between the solar panel and controller and another (30 amp fuse or c/b) between controller and battery. If a fuse does that go on...

I have a pwm solar controller that says it's a 11v/24v 30A from eco-worthy on the technical parameter it states rated current 20A is it 30 or 20 amp Also three settings for battery type B01 Gel B02. LifeP04 B03 maintenance free lead acid battery Mine is a AGM battery so is it...

Have a new 100ah AGM battery that came with 12.2volts so charged it overnight Have connected a 12v diesel heater. Without switching the heater on but having the LCD display on the battery drops from 12.8v to 12.1v within a day or 2 ( battery not connected to solar controller ) Should the volts...

Hi first post so in learning stages. I have installed 2 120watt solar panels on my garage roof which go to a 30amp solar controller. Connected to this is a 12v AGM leisure battery. Will this configuration be ok or will the panels charge the battery to fast and cause damage. If I add another...
