Lones is correct as usual The newer Mate3 when battery charging with the generator has to have time below rebuik or it won’t work.
So your options are to raise the rebulk voltage, this allows more time below the rebulk, which allows for a complete charge. This situation is especially often when someone is trying to keep their batteries at a higher SOC. So again, raise the rebulk voltage, it doesn’t have any impact on offgrid systems. It will fix the problem. jay > On Jan 8, 2021, at 12:54 PM, William Miller <[email protected]> wrote: > > Drake: > > I would suggest the following course of action: > > 1. Reboot Mate > 2.
