Utterly mystified. Admittedly, I don't know a lot about what I'm doing here but, I built this system with tons of help from folks on this board, and it has been humming for the first several months it has been online. I can't say when this started but, it came to my attention about a month ago.
The system is 24v, 8S Eve 280 LiFePO4 Cells, 640w PV (4panels, 2s/2p), Victron MPPT and Inverter/Charger.
Somehow there is a draw being created that is equal to the input, whether from PV or inverter/charger.
This is with the PV breaker in the on position, and full sun.
This is with the PV breaker off.
I did not capture it with screen shots but, the exact same phenomenon happens with PV off, and inverter/charger on shore power in the charge position.
And, this is a day of PV charging/discharging:
There is a Batrium BMS and it mirrors what the GX is showing.
One final addition to the mystery is this that I captured at the end of the day yesterday. The batteries actually gained a couple of percentage points of charge.
There is an actual negative DC draw flowing into the batteries somehow.
And, lastly FWIW this is the system right now in full sun. Batteries are discharging:
Does anyone have any clues on this? Point me a direction to search for an answer?
All help immensely appreciated!
