Given the specifications of your EG4 6500EX inverter and the characteristics of your solar panels, let's evaluate the options: Choice 1: Two strings of 12 panels in series (Total Voc: 468V, Current: 8.5A) Pros: Higher voltage helps reduce losses due to voltage drop over the 75 ft distance...

In this case, it may be more appropriate to place the inverter near the solar panels, as this will minimize voltage losses. It is recommended to choose a slightly larger inverter in order to cope with additional loads and future expansion.

Overall, standalone MPPT controllers may perform better in complex conditions, while integrated MPPT controllers may be better suited for smaller, simpler systems. It's best to consider your array size, environmental conditions, and budget when choosing a controller that fits your specific needs.

49.5Voc * 3 (in series) = 148.5V 10.5Aisc * 3 (in parallel) = 31.5A Your calculated values for voltage (148.5V) exceed the maximum input voltage of the controller (150V). Even with intentional voltage drop, it's risky to exceed the maximum specified voltage, especially considering potential...

Well, what they're talking to me about is supposed to be purely maritime time.

The battery may not be fully charged. This may result in an inaccurate battery charge calculation.

Connect the Solark to the battery pack using two double-ended 4/0 black and red cables, making sure that the cables are long enough to handle possible battery pack movement. Consider using connectors or terminals to make it easier to connect the cables to the battery pack. Mount the Lynx Power...

Your scenario may be technically feasible, but would need to be evaluated to see if it is possible to install a separate exit meter on the unused third phase and ensure the stability of the system.

Question: Is there a potential problem if I bring in underground power lines from my existing mobile home to a newly constructed home specifically to charge batteries in response to a lack of solar power? Solution: This option is theoretically possible, but you need to ensure that the power...

Check Battery Voltage: Ensure that each EG4 battery has sufficient charge before attempting to connect it to the inverter. Low voltage can cause the inverter to shut down or trigger an alarm. Correct Cable Connections: Double-check all your cable connections, ensuring that positive and negative...

From Solar Panels to Inverter (DC Side): For the DC side (from the solar panels to the inverter), the wire gauge will depend on the maximum current (amperage) your solar panels can produce. Refer to the specifications provided by the solar panel manufacturer. At a distance of 60 feet, you may...

Voltage Recovery: Allow the batteries to warm up to room temperature and observe if the voltage recovers. If the low voltage was primarily due to cold temperatures, the voltage may increase as the batteries warm up. Battery Management System (BMS) Data: Check if your LiFePO4 batteries have a...

Sorry, there are some issues I didn't consider

What is the current of the alternator without connecting to a new power source

For batteries that have not been deep-charged for a long time, attempt to deep-charge them. Using a suitable charger, charge the battery to 100% and hold it for a period of time to help restore its capacity.

There are a lot of lithium batteries on Amazon that can replace lead-acid batteries, and their biggest market is replacing lead-acid batteries

For use in marine environments, consider a waterproof, corrosion-resistant, deep-cycle battery with an ip67 case material and Bluetooth capability that allows you to monitor battery status from your smartphone or other device. While this is not required, it may be a good option for convenient...

If you choose to connect four Renogy batteries in parallel to a separate conductive bar and then to the main conductor bar, this will allow the Renogy batteries to form a separate group from your DIY batteries. This has the advantage of making it easier to maneuver if you need to isolate a...

For lithium batteries, especially in trucks, using a DC to DC charger may be a good option, especially if the generator output voltage is insufficient. This ensures that the battery is properly charged and prevents damage to the battery and generator.

Make sure that the charger settings are correct. Sometimes an improperly selected charging mode may result in an abnormal voltage. Check the settings of the Victron charger again to make sure that the correct settings for Li-ion batteries are selected.

It will automatically balance the two batteries if connected in parallel could it be a BMS issue?

Ensure that the new battery is compatible with the Renogy DCC50s charger and monitor that the user has already purchased. This helps to ensure that all parts of the system run smoothly and that the user can monitor battery performance in real time via the monitor.

Yes, you can connect your current AC coupled system to the AC output of the 6048. This is allowed. You can add a DC-coupled PV array while the 6048 is in AC-coupled mode.

You should buy batteries with temperature control that stops charging at freezing temperatures, or that can automatically heat up and keep warm

Check the settings of the solar inverter to ensure that its output voltage and frequency are adapted to the requirements of LEDs and other loads. It may be necessary to adjust the inverter's parameters to provide a more stable power supply. Consider adding voltage regulators and filters to LED...

The plan is to reconnect the solar panels in series to ensure that the minimum voltage requirements of the controller are met when bypassing the Enphase system. Choose the 120/240 EG4 6000XP recommended by Will Prowse, a controller with enough capacity to meet your needs.

If series connected to the same MPPT require equal voltage levels, you may consider adjusting the configuration of the series. This may include increasing or decreasing the number of PV modules to bring the Voc's of the series connections to closer values.If series connected to the same MPPT...

Mounting the Sol Ark and batteries in a room away from the main power distribution panel reduces the thermal impact on them. This ensures that the unit operates at relatively low temperatures. If it is necessary to install the Sol Ark and batteries in a relatively hot room, consider ventilation...

When connecting to a battery system, it may be necessary to consider the use of an AT switch (automatic switching switch) to ensure safe switching to battery power in the event of a power outage. In addition, if using equipment that can work with the battery system, such as Sunny Island, it may...

BATTERY FAILURE: There may be a problem with the battery itself that is causing abnormal emissions. It is recommended that the battery manufacturer or supplier be contacted for a detailed inspection and possible replacement. INVERTER PROBLEMS: The Solis hybrid inverter may be faulty, resulting...
