Brilliant videos. I've bookmarked and subscribed to your videos. You've got the clearest explanations about how to do things. I watched your video about adding a BMS to the batteries. I'm pretty confident I could do that first time now. What I don't understand is my BMS appears to have a C- wire too.. i'm in the process of creating a wiring diagram and now i'm stuck! I don't know if you have one of those kind, but it would be great to see a video of you setting up the batteries to charge AC > DC with a shunt! that would be ace.
Thanks for your kind words Andy, I am really trying to be clear as possible, getting to the point and not to woffle to much. I'm glad its coming across. My older videos I want to remake, as I feel I've found my grove and learned a lot in creating video's. On your BMS have you got 3 large cables? (Ignoring the balance cables) As I think I know what you have. In my video my BMS has 2
@@SolarPowerChannelwithChris Hi Chris. Apologies, I put the equipment down for a while. It was getting stressful. You certainly don't waffle too much. I have 3 large wires. C- B- P- . The added complexity is trying to work out which my shunt connects to. On my diagram, I have my shunt on my P- cable, which then goes to my load. My C- cable goes directly to a bus bar. But equally, it could go on the C- cable right?
Thank You Chris really enjoying watching some of your content really enjoyed it. been watching though all your videos on battery bank cells and i started getting my very own. always wondered about aliexpress how long they arrive to the UK.
Hello and thanks for watching, they can take 3 to 4 weeks to be delivered.. I know it seems a long time. But it soon goes. Same as all the big manufacturers, they can take a while for them too.
Absolutely love this. You’ve explained everything so well. Which BMS did you use? There are multiple available from that link. Thanks. Love the channel 😀
Very informative video, thanks. I'm in the process of upgrading Lifepo4 cells(24v) from 130ah to 305ah. My question is though, can I use both batteries in parallel? Obviously they have separate BMS's. Or not advisable?
It's not advisable.. but I know people that do it! I have a video on this.. I follow the two BMS's while discharging the two batteries. 100ah and 200ah. Video is called mixing capacities. I have been known to do this a little in the winter to help a smaller battery on solar. Lithium.. This is pulling small amps I may add. Running my IP security camera's.

Does 3.65 volts mean 100% charge and 3.4 volts will charge the cell to 80%?
Or are 3.65, 3.5, or 3.4 volts the charging speed of the cell?

Thank you for the feedback. I try and be as clear and quick without woffling on as possible! Thank you for watching.

@@SolarPowerChannelwithChris Thanks for the reply and advice, I'll check the video out for sure. 👍
