Hi Dave, This is wonderful info. And it leads into the what happens when it reaches LVD? Given that it is using almost 10% per day of battery capacity for the BMS, what happens when the charging source for whatever reason shuts down. ( CC dies while people are gone for a few days for one

I had a situation with a Sonnon system where the controller missed it's turn off point and discharged the batteries until there was not enough voltage to keep the BMS running. I jury rigged two 300W panels in parallel and charged the batteries directly until they turned on the BMS. On Thu, Aug

Hi Dave, I looked at them a couple years ago and tried to find out who makes their cells, no luck. Compare with LiFeBlue, for $100 more retail you get a Bluetooth battery monitor in each battery that communicates with the internal BMS and a 10 year Warrantee. I would like to stress how

Agree Larry and thanks for the update. Have you placed a Lifeblue order? They all are pretty pricey, even the LG resu10 is about 4,800 at this time. I do like the idea of easily adding on another string of Lifeblue at a later time. --Dave > Hi Dave, > > I looked at them a couple years ago and
