Yeah,
We have seen several hundreds of different *excellent conductive and corrosion prevention* grease.
Some "home (small Factory) made, some from large companies.
We know that professional LiFePO4 installers in telecom use silver based paste, not our price class...
Almost all other installers use noalox or ox-guard, and with good reason, approved by most inspection regulations.
Almost all others of the Hundreds are, with good reason, not approved by most inspection regulations.
Naturally, feel free to use what ever you like.
If you need any approval, better stay on the paved road side.
Personally, I really would have liked to use that silver based.
With a price of $230 (ex transport and taxes) for a small jar, and 160 terminals that's not going to happen.
It will never match the stability from laser welded aluminium Bus-bars, packs of +/- 50 kg, with strong and large enough contact points..
Instead...
We are dealing with grubscrews in weak aluminium and copper plated Bus-bars to mimic this, but won't even get close.
We don't need to, as it's solar, and not heavily loaded.
Perhaps 400-500A, like my setup, most won't pass the 200A.
None will go in the regions EV would drain (+2100A@51.2v)(or 700A @144v), what needs different levels of contact.
I tried a few of the "hundreds", being thick headed, stubborn, or ignorant or... Just me?
Anyways..
Now I use ox-gard and that finally works, as it should and none of the others did.
As many have gone before me and many will go follow as it is a (the?) best available working solution.
Please try, and inform us of the progress of the carbon dust.
Till then, folks, don't be an idiot like me, and just follow the paved paths.
The need for several remounts will cost you your threads, for what
I have made excellent guide on how to repair
Your not the first that's making a DC contact, and you won't be the last.
It's done for many decades, don't try to reinvent the wheel that is round and running smoothly
for decades.
