    Basic generator charging question

    @sunshine_eggo do you have experience with silicate salt batteries?

    Salt silicate batteries continue charging at 100%

    Hi guys, I have these batteries also have and struggled to identify the true max/min voltages. The batteries say: 13.5-13.8v standby (does this mean storage voltage?) 14.4-15v cycle use (does this mean max?) Mine are in 48v config and I was told to run them to 56.4 bulk, 54v float...

    Silicate salt batteries: what's the consensus on these a few years in now?

    What voltage do you identify as minimum? Information seems to vary greatly. The silicate salt batteries I have says: Standby use 13.5-13.8 does mean “store at”? Cycle use says 14.4-15v does this mean float/bulk voltage? Cannot seem to get min voltage from mfr. Thanks

    Verify my planned battery bank connection diagram please

    How would I combine all 3 strings of 48v to a fuse before the Lynx?

    Verify my planned battery bank connection diagram please

    Hi guys, 3p 4s of 12v batteries to run my 48v system: I'm adding a lynx and a Victron Shunt so I figured I should make sure I have it setup correctly now. Green = series connectors Orange = how each series of 4 is connected in parallel Red/Black Output to inverter Thank you in advance!

    Silicate salt batteries in series?

    I purchased my 48v silicate salt batteries from watts 247 and he sold me 3 balancers to balance the 4 12v batteries in series.

    Silicate Salt Batteries

    Hi guys, I purchased a 22kwh battery bank from watts247 and they've been great to work with. The one thing I can't seem to find or get an answer on is a voltage to SOC chart. These are the batteries...

    Choosing Panels/supplier

    Hi guys wanted to get some suggestions from those of you with more experience. We are building a roughly 10kw array, looking for about two 5kw strings max 250v for use on our property. There are so many panels on sites such as Santan Solar its kind of intimidating! Considerations: Watt per...
