Re: Are Lithium Batteries the way to go?
Being quite efficient, SOC accuracy can be excellent with a good BMS. Just saying voltage doesn't work well, and a good BMS isn't optional. Will have to agree to disagree on the cost coming down. I d…1 · -
Re: Are Lithium Batteries the way to go?
Lithium (of which there are multiple types with distinct characteristics), solves some problems, but creates others. Some include inability to charge in cold temps, greater risk of fire, difficulty i…2 · -
Re: Charging with a automotive charger
Purely guesswork... the 40a boost may flip a breaker at some point if sustained, or maybe it fuses closed and the internal wiring becomes the fuse :wink: Personally, I'd prefer to use a charger rated…0 · -
Re: Charge controller thinks battery is 24v - it's 12v?
Mppt CAN be better, but it really depends. IMHO, pwm don't "suck", they're just the right tool for a different job than mppt. In many cases, for example, using a single 60 cell panel (or mu…1 · -
Re: AGM batteries voltage drop .
Do you know about how long it takes after the transition from bulk to absorb to reach ~25a?0 ·
