    MY JK BMS is mis behaving.

    I only have the one JK bms hooked up. It has worked everyday up until this point. I uninstalled the app and re installed it. Still no go. I do not want to make a pair anyway. I just want this jk effing bms to talk to the app on my phone without asking me to make a pair. head scratching.

    MY JK BMS is mis behaving.

    Hi all, here is a copy of what I sent to Fogstar this morning. firstly, I hope you are all well. I purchased a Smart BMS JK-B2A8S20P with Active Balancer 200A (4S-8S) on 29th July. Order #270442 It has been working well but since this morning I cannot access any of the the pages on my mobile...

    MPP solar neutral to ground bond is doing both of my brain cells in.

    Hi, yes I did. See below the reply i got from James MPP Hi Paul By design the 2524GE does NOT come with a N-G ground screw, which means under battery/solar mode, output N-G will not bond and so it will behave per original design to be "floated". This is why you will measure a differential...

    ATS Grounding question

    just to add for information. For my own MPP Unit, i got this reply from MPP Hi Paul By design the 2524GE does NOT come with a N-G ground screw, which means under battery/solar mode, output N-G will not bond and so it will behave per original design to be "floated". This is why you...

    MPP solar neutral to ground bond is doing both of my brain cells in.

    I have thrown the question to MPP,..... still waiting an answer. In the meantime, i have been rubbing both my braincells together......would this work. The transfer switch has some passive contacts. see pics.

    MPP solar neutral to ground bond is doing both of my brain cells in.

    thanks Mike, I am nearly there. I am suspecting that the MPP internal relay is not making a good connection between neutral and earth when in battery/solar inverting mode. Will keep digging and then throw the question at MPP. Cheers, for the info

    MPP solar neutral to ground bond is doing both of my brain cells in.

    Hi Guys and Gals, I have a problem here in the uk with my 240VAC system. As you can see from the pictures, I tried to solve the neutral ground bond problem when running on solar and/or batteries by using a transfer switch. Could you gurus please cast an eye over my setup to see where I have...

    been using this since 2015 on my grid tied system to capture excess going back to grid. Heats the water in the cylinder via 3kw element. (max 3kw)

    How to get solar when you can't afford it

    I live in sunny suffolk uk and had grid tied solar installed in 2015(no battery backup) . See my usage below. I also get approx £800 back per year on a 'feed in' tariff. Currently working on a diy solar system with batteries so that I can run my garage and the house in the event of a power...

    There is no short supply of degenerates in America's BLM and National Forest lands.

    There is no need to litter. Take it home with you and dispose of it properly.

    Impress your friends with a 3kw electric kettle

    I live in the UK and use a slow kettle. 240VAC at 900watts. It is actually made for caravans but works a treat during sunlight hours. Usually costs zero money to boil whereas the old 2.2Kilowatt beast would sometimes use grid juice. Whats the rush folks? The kettle takes a little longer to boil...

    Confused about battery sparking

    nice video. Do you have to do this on hybrid MPP inverter too?

    Can I pre-charge before a top balance with my hybrid inverter?

    crimp, ideally with a quality hydraulic crimper.

    PowMr are still ripoff, beware.

    also, if the ebay seller is a business seller, go to any of their listed items, scroll to the bottom and the contact details should be there.

    Can anyone recommend an AC coupled inverter for the UK please?

    very interested in this topic. I currently have a grid tied 4kw system on FIT. I am making my own powerwall, starting with 5kw and adding to it. How do you propose to use the battery bank during daylight hours and keep the FIT meter 'fed/going/reading'. I was thinking of using extra panels to...

    Emf radiations and dirty electricity claims... solutions or ignore ?

    when it is damp outside, i get about 80VAC between my solar panel framework (16 panels) and my aluminium ladder on damp grass. (I live in a bungalow). Makes a right good tingle on the fingers but no current. This framework is just picking up radiated AC from the house I guess. It is all around us.
