Many thanks for the charging info. I will definitely read over these instructions. I think maybe for my little setup, a Battle Born might even be a little overkill. However, from what I've read, Battle Born batteries are really "the best there is" when it comes to a pre-packaged, reliable...

I am seriously considering supplementing my portable solar system. I want a few days of additional autonomy, and so based on my relatively low watt hour requirements (anywhere from 150-200 watts for 3 hours per day) I am calculating that I will need roughly 1100 watt hours or so to feel more...

I guess there are pros and cons to any portable setup like this. In my view, here are the pros: -- Portable -- Easy to setup / deploy -- Batteries are "hot swappable" -- All parts in the system can be replaced individually if one of them were to fail vs a total failure of "an all-in-one" unit...

Yes. That's correct. Basically, what I do is connect a CH220 slow battery charger to each River 600. Thus, I am able to successfully charge each 56V battery in anywhere from 1.5 to 3 hours (depending on the battery size). Most of the time, even after roughly an hour of charging, the battery is...

Thank you. I appreciate the comment.

I have a question hopefully someone can answer: How safe are 18650 NMC-based batteries? Particularly, more "brand name" batteries such as LG or Samsung? Are they subject to issues like thermal runaway? In other words, if I am charging these in my home at night, would they be a major fire hazard...

I agree 100 percent. Quick charging is what it's all about in this modern day and age. I'm very happy that Bluetti is one of the first manufacturers to embrace LiFePO4 technology in a commercial setting. Let's hope that this is truly a win-win for the consumer.

Like many, I too have a Jackery 500. I've used it a couple of times on a camping trip. I love the MPPT charge controller. I used it with about 160 watts of STC solar. Real world conditions meant that I was getting a max of 60-80 watts of input at any given time (sunny conditions). Cloudy...

Hello, I recently posted a Super Question on the Morning Livestream on YouTube (3 April 2021). My question is: Will and others, what are your thoughts about the EGO 56V Inverters and batteries? I have several 56V BA4200T batteries with EGO 56V Pure Sine Wave inverter? I believe the battery...

I just recently posted a Super Question to the latest Morning Live Stream on YouTube (3 April 2021). I have not yet received an answer. I am extremely curious to find out what the safest over paneling solar panel wattage for the MidNite Solar KID 30A charge controller. I currently have 400 watts...
