James, I have a grounding question regarding the use of the Chargeverter through the internal bus bars paralleled in 3 Power Pro batteries...
1. When my 3 PP batteries are connected to the system as the main battery bank they will be grounded by the system, but if I'm charging them via their...
So I don’t need to update the power pros for my Sol-Ark 15Ks? I do have V2’s in my rack… so if I update them with the LL S firmware they can work with the power pros and have coms? How do I set DIP switches ??
I’m trying to setup my Sol-Ark 15k with the APSmart RSD and I’d love to know what 12 volt transformer you used. I know the Sol-Ark can’t power it. I’m stuck…
Anyone have there EG4 Power Pro batteries installed outside your home and are experiencing extremely cold weather? Wondering if you are having issues. Personally I would never put them outside even though they are rated for it. It's freezing outside my house for the past two days but I have my...
Why don't you just connect one 48v battery to one Delta Pro via the solar charge input utilizing the charge controller and doing the same thing with the other Delta Pro? That way you don't ruin your batteries.
On the Sol-Ark 15k battery setup discharge tab it asks for Battery Resistance. I can’t find that in the specs for the EG4 Power Pro batteries or the EG4 LL V2 batteries. It’s not in the manuals.
Anyone know where I can find the answers? Top right in the picture
Ok my fine forum folks I sent the same question to Signature Solar and they sent this reply
“As long as the battery bank is connected to the inverter properly and the inverter is grounded properly, the batteries and the rack themselves do not need any grounding wires as it will all be grounded...
After updating the firmware on all the batteries they've been running great. I have recently had a few times when the inverter is sending energy to the grid with the batteries not at 100%. I'm about to do a experiment to see if its the BMS from the battery not communicating properly on...
I asked pretty much the same question in the following linked thread and got a reply from the owner of EG4.... you would use the generator to power the Chargeverter.

Copy that I'm crystal clear now. I can't wait to do an experiment to see if a rack of 6 EG4 LL V2 batteries can daisy chain communications with 3 of the new EG4 Power Pro wall batteries. I already know that I can't have them connected in parallel with my 15k's without voiding the warranty...
That makes a lot of sense… I posted the same question in the FB forum for EG4 users and the answers are all over the place. I wish the manufacturer or distributors would clarify what properly grounding means as referred to in the manual.
I’m running two Sol-Ark 15Ks in parallel. If the slave craps out will the Master keep running as long as the loads are within range of one unit or will the system shut down. And if the master shuts down, for some reason, will the slave takeover as long as the loads are within the limits of one...
Anyone using the Blue Sea System Power Bar 1000A as a main bus bar for paralleling LifePo battaries? The cover that comes with this buss bar is really nice but its a royal pain to get off even outside of the wiring trough. Once I install it into the wiring trough it will be nearly impossible...
Just a heads up if anyone is considering using Solar Assistant with the Sol-Ark 15k and the EG4 Power Pro batteries (they use the same BMS as the EG4 LL batteries) or the EG4 LL V2 batteries the splitter will cause BMS issues. Wish it weren’t so because I love SA and the frequency it poles the...
Setting up the AC side of a system with two Sol-Ark 15Ks in parallel and have seen people using PDB’s (power distribution box or blocks) and was wondering what PDB are being used to share the load, grid, and AC coupled solar connections? There are so many different kinds it’s confusing
It was checked before I contacted Sol-ark. Trevor set it to lead acid to stop from any further errors and had me disconnect the com until I could talk to you guys
