Hi everyone,
I am currently trying to build my off-grid system for my Hunting/GetAway Cabin up here in Northern Ontario Canada. I just bought 4 250w 37.2Voc panels for solar and I’m thinking about getting the EPEVER 40a Tracer controller with an MT50, but I'm not sure exactly what I should do to keep the batteries above freezing in the winter... I want to have a 24v LiFePO4 system with no inverter (only DC appliances), but my only source of heat will be my wood stove.
I'm afraid that when I have been away from the cabin or leave the cabin with the cells not fully charged in the winter; the batteries won't be charged when I come back because the low temp cut off will disconnect the batteries... I know the cells like to sit around 50%, I'm more worried about me not having power when I come back to the Cabin..
Do you have any suggestions?
