Jerry,I have an upcoming project where I will need to add the resister to eliminate and batt temp charging corrections. I have not done this before can you provide where I could find a twister to achieve this?Mahalo,Roland ShackelfordPresident / OwnerNABCEP PVIP #091209-162Office 808.775.7410Mobile

I went back and looked at my notes on my recent adventure with closed loop SI to eFlex Fortress, and one thing I had noted at the time is that Fortress recommends 2.2V, 2.26V, and 2.3V for the setting for ChrgVtgFlo (220-10), depending on which of three Fortress docs I read. I think I ended up set

Jay: Good question. I assumed some kind of FET circuit but that is only my assumption. However an open relay exhibits some fairly high impedance. The symptoms indicate the SI shuts down but the batteries remain connected. Something allows 69 volts on the battery terminals… William Miller Miller

Maybe someone else knows differently but it was explained to me that the fortress batteries have a relay that disconnects the battery if the voltage gets to high or low. There isn’t any electronic  device to change battery impedance besides what the actual cells are doing. JayOn Nov 12, 2023, at 12

Regarding the SI Inverters,for me it works best to eliminate the bat temp sensor and put in a resister set to be 75 degrees, this will prevent the charger over under charge issue. Fun times On Sun, Nov 12, 2023, 12:36 PM William Miller via RE-wrenches < re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> wrote: >

Friends: I am still working on getting the E-vaults to play nice with the Sunny Islands and Sunny Boys. With Open loop I was getting significant discrepancies in the reporting of SOC in the e-vaults versus that reported by the SI inverters. This discrepancy did not diminish over time. The d
