Hi everyone!
Desperately searching for any help! I became a ''happy owner'' of Renogy Lifepo4 100 ah battery w/Bluetooth.
Opened the box and measured the voltage on terminals - 12.75v. Connected Renogy app and it showed me 34% charge.
So I tried connecting it to Victron 100/20 mppt charger (PV was shut off). Surprisingly the MPPT charger didn't turn on so I checked the voltage on the terminals again and it was 2.81v. Disconnect the charger - 12.75v.
I tried connecting a different load and the same thing happens - voltage drops from 12.75 to 2.81 and nothing works, even a small led light doesn't shine if I connect it directly to the battery.
Just bought NoCo Genius 5 charger today and tried charging the battery but I think it doesn't accept the charge because it went to ''full charge'' almost immediately while Renogy app still shows 34% after being connected to NoCo for 3 hours.
Renogy support is taking so much time and I really need to decide what to do now: try to recover the battery or simply buy a new one, relax, and take my time with the long emails to support. Living full-time in my RV and every day without solar energy costs me money.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
