    I was going to replace mine but I noticed when I removed the sensor that there was a small amount of white dust, perhaps ceramic from the sensor. Anyways that dust was in the little recess that the sensor sits in. I blew that dust away and hooked the same sensor back up and it runs fine now.

    If you wire the victron charger controller just putting the wires on it they will fall off all well. That happened to me.

  • @wb5mgr
    @wb5mgr 12 дней назад

    Probably if you run a 48v system best to add a secondary 48v alternator just to charge the leisure batteries, dual alternator brackets are quite common and 48v units can be had. Just need to place a cutout interlock on it that removes the excitation for when its not connected to a battery.

  • @philbrooke-little7082
    @philbrooke-little7082 13 дней назад

    the problem with a charger at less than bms cutoff is that the battery will reach 100% but, if the charger doesnt cut off, you then low voltage overcharge the battery. If a company sets those defaults I wouldn't buy the BMS as it indicates a fundamental lack of understanding. Zero isn't a magic point, you can charge lower but at a much reduced value. Equally you can't charge at full rate at close to zero particularly if the battery is fairly full.

    Thanks for the great and detail build. Few questions. 1) Why are you using Daly BMS instead of JK BMS? I thought an active BMS would be a lot better for such a build. 2) I didn't notice a fuse in the build. Which fuse are you using? Thanks!

    Before you consider the Daly BMS take in mind that the app only works on ipone, yes there is an Android app but that app hasn't worked for at least 2 years.

  • @BorealisNights
    @BorealisNights 17 дней назад

    I paused at 4:30 in to comment... Victron's Orion manual clearly states that with 4 or 6 gauge wire, you'll need to use a hexagonal crimp ferrule. I do not believe pins are as good as the recommended, properly crimped ferrule. (I'm actually surprised you didn't know(or mention?), other styles of crimping for different styles of terminal connectors).

  • @brianm9962
    @brianm9962 21 день назад

    I could only wake my BMS up by first disconnecting and then reconnecting the ballance lead. Neither the switch nor applying a charge would wake it up after it had gone to sleep. The battery voltage for 4 cells was 13.3v. Anyway, thank you for the switch connection information, I will add this to my setup, but I will have to remember the balance lead to remove power and reset my BMS.

  • @UKsystems
    @UKsystems 21 день назад

    I’ve seen a few people getting confused in these comments so this is to clear up both of these are used due to conductor class find stranded cable needs to have something on it to make a proper connection. What one you use is based on your personal assessment. If you are properly qualified to be installing these you would know the differences so some of these comments you really should be hiring someone to help only because it shows a fundamental lack of understanding on the technical side that isn’t a bad thing but you need to be properly told about it. Is worth knowing that there are lug ferrules

    Now empty the lithium battery to its BMS cutoff 10.5V and watch your alternator fry on tick over! OR Drive fast and when the BMS senses one of its cells is at 3.65 and suddenly cuts off and the surge blow the diode pack - this post is like looking for a gas leak with a candle.

      I don't see why not. As long as you isolate the wires of your poe that provides the + & - of the DC power and make your own wire connections then it should work. The wiring of the mini is dead simple. Just 2 wires supplying 12-48v DC.
