Hi, all! I got some fairly strange numbers today that I would like to have some feedback on. Is it possible to get ~725W input from two REC 405W rated panels (two in series currently for 810W nominal) in February in Pennsylvania? That works out to be 88% of the rated capacity, and I find the...

Hi, all. I'm looking to put together my first big (for me) battery with these cells: https://eelbattery.myshopify.com/products/4pcs-eve-3-2v-100ah-genuine-grade-a-lifepo4-cells-lithium-ion-solar-energy?variant=40146648465497 EEL seems to have a decent enough reputation, and with free shipping...

The reason I ask is that I'd like to test the JKBMS that I bought, but honestly don't want to hook up the balance leads with the cells I have on hand for a variety of reasons that I'd rather not elaborate on at this time. If they need to be hooked up, that's fine, I just need to know so I can...

I took a chance and bought 4 of these to put together a test battery pack for setting up my MPP 3048LV-MK. Today I decided to pop the top off of one, as I wanted to see if the internals were decent, as the batteries have been performing rather well in my testing. I did buy a JKBMS to use for...

Hi, all! I live in a 27' travel trailer. For various reasons, which I can expand on if people don't take my word for it, I want to run my solar wires down the side of my trailer. For the sake of durability, I figure that the wires themselves should be in stone kind of conduit or cover. I am at...

Hi, all! I've just started my solar journey. I currently have an MPP 3048LV-MK hooked up to two 405W REC Alpha panels, and just to get started, I bought 4 cheap 12V lifepo4 batteries since the 3048 needs batteries. (The batteries I choose explicitly showed that they could be wired in 4S.) I also...

Hi, all! I have 4 REC Alpha 405W panels that are going to be installed on my travel trailer soon. I have no direct solar experience, so I was wondering if anyone could help shed some light (I love puns, so, beware!) on what might work best in my case. The VOC and Isc are 48.9V and 10.3A...

Hi. I'm Matt, AKA The Beave, and I'm trying to decide on an AIO for my home, a 27' travel trailer. Currently, I have a very typical 30A single phase setup, mostly as is from the factory. (I've had to replace several outlets and the main inlet, thank you quality control!) I will be installing a...

First things first: Hi. I'm The Beave. I am an odd duck, which is especially strange since my nickname is an entirely different creature, but, here we are. This will be along post, since I have quite a lot of explaining to do about my situation, requirements, possible solutions, and some dry...
