Hi All,
I’ve searched extensively on this subject and there are a lot of posts with suggestions but no conclusions it seems…
I just built a 280ah battery with cells from aliexpress and a Daly 150amp BMS. My RV has a xantrex 2012 and I’m trying to find the sweet spot on the charge settings so that it stays in Bulk mode for a reasonable amount of time (currently it kicks on for a few minutes and goes right into absorption, likely because the absorption and bulk voltage settings are the same,) and the batteries reach my desired SOC before absorption times out.
Current Settings:
Bulk and Absorption Voltage = 13.8 (purposefully 3.45 to extend battery life)
Absorption Time = 120 minutes
Float turned off
Can someone please help me figure out how to get it to stay in bulk? And/or to charge to desired SOC?
Thank you in advance for your time!!
Robin
