I could use some help please!
Here’s the run down…..
Yesterday was 111 desert heat. We had full sun.
Awoke at 1am to the charge controller shutting down. This has happened twice in the 4 years of our solar. Due to running too much. I don’t think we ran too much yesterday although I might be off on that.
I got up in the morning to hit the button on the batteries to turn them back on and the charge controller turned on, went to the battery overdischarge protection screen and shut down.
I waited a bit tried again. Same thing.
Tried once more and this time it didn’t shut down however our inverter then started to beep a solid beep with the exclamation mark light, that shows low voltage, and shuts power.
Is this just a case of needing to let it charge longer?
Could there be something with the batteries, controller or inverter?
Here are pictures of the charge controller screen over the course of 30 min or so to show the voltage etc.
Lastly one breaker popped twice during this.
It’s located between the charger controller and the solar. Pictures show breaker and which wires it’s connected to.
Our system:
80 amp charge controller (Impinvt)
2000 watt inverter (renology)
975 watts solar panels
3 - 1300 lifepo4 batteries (Lion)
