Every Solar controller has limits as to the Volts/Watts/Amps they can accept. That Victron 100/20 will ONLY Accept 100 Volts/1160W from...

Please STOP IMMEDIATELY ! You are about to burn your system up ! You cannot over panel as you describe - it will fail and terribly so...

These BMS' support either 8S or 16S. With 8S you use only the 1st & 2nd sense harnesses where with 16S you use all 4. Each sense...

YEP, Murphy's Laws Apply without a doubt. Dunno about you folks, but if I ever cath Murphy, he'll be dragged down the road with a chain...

Blaming an OEM who makes a device to a VAR's specs is not quite right, seriously. Example, DeWalt & Black & Decker power tools are made...

If one is doing a fresh build, e.g. new cells and or cases then this is a great opportunity to utilize the latest technology. On the...

15S Pack using 200AH cells example. LFP @ 3.000V X 15S = 45.0V while 16S=48.0V LFP @ 3.200V X 15S = 48.0V while 16S=51.2 LFP @ 3.400V...

The older version of the JK's have a different harness, they are not compatible. Each segment has a Temp Sensor on the new models. If...

I was INVOKED for a ? Pissing Contest ? Seriously ? The FACT is that companies like Growatt are both OEM's & VARS do produce stuff...

The 150A & 200A are the same physical size. I also got the 200A JK-Inverter models with 200A breakers in all my boxes. Gotta say, my...

Necro post. I gave up on that USRIOT thing and binned it. I also changed BMS' to standard JK and now revamping my whole bank with...

I have 5 of the 4.3" displays to go with my 5 cases. Amy said the BMS and 2 plates weigh 7-8kg. She will get back to me when she has...

Small stuff (<2.5kg) and small package size, by air is not as bad as most think. I get things by air if it's small & need it fast and...

I chatted with Amy about a closed loop JK BMS for one of my batteries. I will also order the BMS mounting plate and a new face plate...

Shia, you've provided more information here compared to the Smal Cabin forum here I mentioned coming here for more help. Now that I...

Cells are factory tested to comply within the Working Voltage Range (3.000-3.400 V per cell). The allowable range that causes no harm...

28.2V = 3.525 Volts per cell in 8S. That is 1.25V over Working voltage and does NOTHING other than stress the cells. 3.450 is pretty...

That sucks. I have seen "reconditioned" panels advertised at other places. Seems like thats what they sent you? None of what you are...
