Remember that CAN bus wires are very prone to EMC/EMI from anything. Especially at higher baud rates. So have them shielded and twisted according to spec. Many uses patch/ethernet cables (shielded of cause), which is quite ok in many cases
@@gelisob modbus has some recommendations which were not that true cause growatt said 15 m, but in reality some have already achieved 125 m and up to 800 m should be possible. Not sure about Can Bus, but it depends on your configuration cause usually batteries run can bus for the car and inverters tend to use modbus , even though Growatt offers CAN BUS too, but a different dialect.
This is amazing idea. Local car breakers selling 50kwh battery for £5000 from Renault Zoe. Assuming you want this mounted outside with some fire protection .
Victron support is not difficult using can bus. Reconfiguring a 400V pack down to 65V can be a little tricky though. If you are looking for a specific EV battery to do this I would recommend the Zoe ph2 52kWh given its internal cell layout and the fact I have one running with a Victron Multiplus 10KVA + Cooler Control GX.
@@TheKingpleb M3 would be a nightmare to do tbqh, it's entirely possible to do just not with the existing onboard cell monitoring (no balancing).

This is pretty neat. Maybe you can talk with another RUclipsr Will Prowse. He does solar content and he's always talking about needing better software for the equipment. He likes the other company's battery's but maybe if we can recycle some old battery's it will be even better.
Well done. 👍🏻 I guess that you have put in many hours in all this coding. I have a Solax x3 g4G3 15kW inverter and a zoe 40 kWh battery pack. The battery pack is just laying around at the moment so just let me know if there is anything I can do for you if you want me to do some tests for you. Greetings from Sweden🇸🇪
according to github Zoe should work now - in experimental mode, but I bet you will get it running too. Zoe on top of your ID.3 battery trailer will be a nice upgrade I guess, but the City Stromer is also still one of your running projects.
This is awesome progress. Dala, do you have any examples of how the car batteries are stored/installed in a home? Are there any wall mounts available to attach the vertically etc? Can the batteries be outside and handle the rain / fog / moisture?
Hi Dala. Was it just me or did you mention a Discord? If so, could you share the link in the description? From my end I have Huawei's popular SUN2000 (specifically the SUN2000-6KTL-L1) inverter, which can normally only connect to Huawei Luna or LG Resu batteries. Looking to hook that up to my Leaf's 2011 24Kwh battery. So, that's a possible test that could be made.
Yes most of the quick day to day development discussion is being held on my Patreon Discord server. Link here incase you want to support and join! www.patreon.com/dala
No the env200 cannot get 62kWh installed, the shape is too different. Only 24/40 env200 is possible to swap between. Also the LEAF 62kWh batteries lack AC cooling.
Unbelievable work. World it be possible to connect an titansolar or pylontech hv battery to the fronius Inverter? This would be also great. Best regards Alex
This all sounds great but can this setup be used with a bunch of individual batteries rather than complete OEM battery packs? If so is there a minimum number of cells? Thanks.
Dude, the whole point of this is because there is 1000 systems already available to do what youre describing here, and 0-none for running complete packs.
See my other videos on using individual cells stringed together with a BMS. I do not recommend this, it costs a lot more, and requires way more skill/effort.
I have a Renault Fluence since 2021 in my Garage with 47% Rest-Capacity = 10-11 kWh. Thats the same type of battery as the Leaf. Could I use the same system as you did on the Leaf ???
Thanks for posting this! I'd also like to know if there is a way to keep the battery in the car and have the inverter at the house as an emergency source.
Amazing project!! Your are douing fantastic work! Did you think about adding some web interface or small screen with buttons to control manually turning on and off of battery? Can this battery work without solar investors like simple bms?
I wonder if anyone tried with Sungrow SH10RT-ADA Australian version? I'm currently planning to install panels in my house in Canberra Australia and also thinking to find the battery. My provider says Fronius will be way more expensive compare to Sungrow. BTW I'm planning petentially to by EV. Does it make sense to buy 3phase inverter? It is very rear case when I drive more than 60km a day. Currently I do not have anything what uses 3 phase. The only what could be is the EV charger from 3phases. I wanted to buy 3phase woodworing tools, but not sure if that ever happens. I'm currently reviewed supported invertors and looking to buy one of Fronius Primo GEN24 6.0 Plus, Fronius Symo GEN24 8.0 Plus, Fronius GEN24 Plus Symo 10.0 Plus, Sungrow SH6.0RS-ADA, Sungrow SH10RT-ADA
I can add it if I get some CAN logs! I need: - CAN logs from a running Hyundai ioniq, from the CAN bus that is connected to the battery - Two logs, one at low SOC%, and one at high SOC%. Also some discharge/charge logs would be good. - CAN logs from a standalone ioniq battery Then once we have that, we can: - Experimenting by sending the complete CAN data to the battery, and seeing if it stays on - Do the standard integration to the LilyGo hardware
And again - thank you for this work!!! It's looks not so complicated for people without technical background. Is it possible with LILYGO to set specific time for charging battery from grid? In my region we have very short daylight hours (4-5) and a lot of clouds. And every night electricity from grid is very cheap, and afternoon hours very expensive. Difference can be up to 1 euro per kWh.
Dala, you are a real battery/EV wizzard, looking up to your projects. I have one question concerning the charging of the leaf battery. Is there a lower limit in charge below which you risk to reduce it's lifetime? The solar system will often deliver very little power... I am using openWB wallbox to charge my leaf on AC depending on solar production and I've set the minimum power to 1.4 kW. Beside the first question, are you aware on any low limit on AC charge for the leaf?
Hi Dala, i plan to assemble a hybrid residential solr system, and i decide go with fronius gen24 plus inverter, but i cant’t purchase the overpriced BYD battery, does this project will allow me to use a DIY lifepo4 battery pack?
Not by default. The project focuses on safe re-use of complete EV packs. If you build a custom battery, it's gonna have to be 400V and speak CAN. Not that easy thing to do! I would suggest picking up an old EV pack, see the wiki for compatibility: github.com/dalathegreat/Battery-Emulator/wiki

One quick Q if I may, if I were to get a Solax hybrid with a 24kwh Leaf battery, could I add an additional Leaf battery to the same inverter in the future? Thanks!
so essentially i can tell the battery that it's technically still in a car and use the internal bms with balancing and all safety features while being able to use the hv output to any yet supported inverter that matches the voltage range ? that's pretty amazing work!
I have a Tesla Solar system with one power wall ... Do you have anything with your boards that will allow me to make my own DIY battery look like a second or third power wall so I can connect to the existing system with out re-inventing the wheel ... thanks keep up the good work
Would be great to see how your approach would work with the new Goodwe ET 25KW - 30KW Hybrid high voltage inverters as they have the capability to have two batteries connected via separate connections. With your interface, do you think it could handle a single Tesla model 3 battery connected across both inverter battery connections (simulating a pair of separately connected HVM11's?) I'm guessing the Tesla pack could handle the power output of 2 x HVM11's?
GoodWe and Deye are on the "BYD BATTERY-BOX PREMIUM HVS&HVM COMPATIBLE INVERTER LIST", so most likelty these already work! Someone just needs to test it!
Yes, Pelle_C's Raspberry Pi variant has Batrium BMS support: gitlab.com/pelle8/gen24 However, I do not recommend using an external BMS. It will cost thousands of euros for the longmons and external components. Much better to re-use battery as-is!

Great work Dala! I just today finally purchased a used 40kWh Nissan Leaf battery pack to integrate in my PV system. Looking forward to implement it based on your videos! 🙂
Hi, I’m really curious what a 40KW Leaf pack should cost. Is that something you would share here? Greetings Danny
@@djjmtimmermans Sure, no problem. I paid some 6250£ +VAT and shipping from UK. The battery was from an accidental 2019 Nissan Leaf with some 90'000km on the odometer. It is an almost perfect battery with >90%SOH. Purchased it on Ebay.
Love it 😘
