Solar Underground A-Frame LiFePo4 System - Battery Update
Просмотров 9743 года назад
I misspoke at the beginning of the video. The cells are actually connected in parallel in packs of 4, then the packs are going to be connected in series for 48V. So it will be 4P16S once i get the series connection cables fabricated and installed. Got the battery pretty much done. It's 64 cells of LiFePo4 goodness. The cells are the EVE 280AH. She'll be a 48V nominal system with a total of 1120...

    I asked my China vendor for the torque, the answer is no more than 8Nm (70.8 in-lb). I have six 48V batteries. The first two were at 40 in-lb, the rest were at 65 in-lb. Guess what? The 4 batteries had higher torque worked great. The two had lower torque (40 in-lb) did not balance well, every time I charged them, a few cells jumped up to fast, the rest stayed low until the JK-BMS turned off "CHARGE" for "Over Voltage Protection". My over voltage protection was 3.6V. At first, I thought the problem was the BMS or battery cells but the truth was the TORQUE!

    Normal offset teeth sawblades produce clouds of nasty plastic dust. Any blade with a wavy, thin (knife-like) profile will cut clean and dust free. For my project using 120mm sheets, I ground the teeth and side edges off a 9" reciprocating saw blade. Perfect. For thinner sheets, same can apply with jigsaw blades, plus there are proprietary wavy blades for jigsaws. Hand cutting - if thick, use Bahco insulation saw. Thinner boards - probably utility blades and snapping will work best. From UK, you're welcome.

    Mini (Winter) Solar Tip: You can gradually turn down a boiler and all other hungry electricity consumers with the "5000W dimmer". Ebay €7. I run 5 dimmers in parallel on an 850W inverter. Kettle 2.2KW at 150W runs 12 hours a day, so the water is always hot. The room is also nicely heated. 2.5KW washing machine runs in parallel with dimmed to 200...400W. Iron, dishwasher, oven, electric heater, coffee machine, all internal heating are throttled with me. Videos about it on my channel ruclips.net/video/eC2olbCBhh0/видео.html The inverter stays cool, quiet and the MOSFETs remain intact because extreme current peaks no longer arrive at the inverter. Now every Mini PV Inverter is enough to sell large devices. So, with the dimmer, all internal heaters/devices can be converted into base load devices that stay almost permanently ON, drawing very little current directly from the PV. With a wattmeter / energy cost measuring device you can then measure this perfectly in order to set the dimmer optimally. A little hint (for everyone else): Energy cannot be saved. So if I want to boil my water, I always have to use the same amount of energy for one liter. Christian's method relies on a longer period of time with less power in order to be able to use the power provided by the PV as efficiently as possible - so consumption peaks are intercepted. In the end, the energy consumption should even be (slightly) higher due to the interposition of the dimmer, but it doesn't matter, since more efficient coverage by the PV system and therefore better use of the self-generated energy.............................🌞........

I read every single bit of information it came with before I hooked anything up. Its quite an impressive piece of equipment isn't it !!! I've had mine over a year an a half now . I have 21 210 watt solar panels , with a victron mppt smart solar charge controller , and 32 280 AH prismatic lithium cells configured into a 16s 2p 48v bank which is 560 AH . I also have a generator hooked up just incase , But It never starts ! The solar panels supply enough energy to keep the batteries up even on cloudy days .

    Can the Moes ATS-11KW Intelligent Dual Power Transfer Controller be used to transfer between 2 battery banks in a solar system using 1 inverter/charger? both banks are 24v AGM, the batteries in each bank have different AHs which is why I have 2 banks. One bank is made 20 AGM 12V 35AH batteries @24v bank, the other is 2 AGM 12v 210AH batteries @24vs. I want to be able to charge both and switch between them automatically as one bank is drained below 11V it switches to the other.

    • @Chamdar17
      @Chamdar17 2 года назад

      The system switches between power sources according to a voltage reading from a single battery - it monitors when that battery should be used (per your set preferences) and when it should switch to the alternate power supply (intended to be the grid). In order to flip back and forth between two battery-powered systems, you would select one battery to be 'primary' which the switch actually monitors while the other (secondary) goes un-monitored and the switch will transfer to it whether it is charged or not according to what the primary battery voltage is at.

    @j.badinter988 2 года назад

    No. This is not the way to do it, sorry. With time and discharging cycles, your tape will expand. And if a cell is bad, what do you do to replace it? The way to do it is to insert 1/16 plastic sheet (cutting board style) between each cell and use a 3/4 plywood on each end connected with a1/2 treated rod wrapped in PEX tubing and nit and washer licks on each end. 2 rods on each side.
