Thanks for the the shunt thoughts. I did confirm the reading using a clamp amp meter as well so I'm confident the readings were as expected

I thought I would provide an update in case anyone was interested: Renogy agreed to send me a replacement battery as they considered the battery to be defective. However, that turned into delay after delay and I noticed on the website they were "Sold Out" of that battery so I eventually asked...

No - just a message saying they have "requested a replacement" for my battery

I've come to resolution with Renogy and they are going to send out a replacement so good on them - hopefully I don't see the same issue with the replacement. Thank you again members for all your help!

The other thing I should note - it seems like the BMS is disconnecting around 24.4 volts which seems really high - but maybe that is because one of the cells is a lot lower?

Currently I have the voltage sense wire connected to the input of the disconnect switch for convivence. There is only 3ft of 2 AWG cable from the battery to the fuse and then 6" to the disconnect. I suppose there could be a little loss in voltage but shouldn't be significant. Renogy did ask...

Thanks for your reply. I could look at purchasing a power supply to see if this works but I am wondering if this possible imbalance could result in a capacity half of what the rated capacity is? This is a brand new battery from a reputable brand.... From my perspective, I haven't done...

I logged the data from the shunt for charging from the all in one - here is the charge profile: As well, I logged charging from the AC-DC LifePo4 charger: And finally during one of the capacity tests:

I am hoping to get insight from you guys about an issue I am seeing on a recently purchased setup. I have been dreaming of the day I could replace my flooded batteries in our motorhome with LifePo4. Doing my research I understood that more than just the batteries need to be replaced (i.e...
