      I had done an older overview video but nothing recently. I should do a updated video and see if I can figure out what I paid for everything and what I saved on taxes over a couple of years. This system is really for when the lights go out, but it does run a Medium sized refrigerator in the basement full time. The money I save running that refrigerator is probably very limited.

    It's probably a more expensive option and it might only be useful for if you're going to seal one of these cans up and bury them, but could you also use a conductive thermal paste on the seal between the cover and the case itself?

    • @thechiefsway2618
      @thechiefsway2618 4 місяці тому

      If you have set the charge controller properly then I would suspect the problem is your battery is out of balance. The battery is out of balance enough that it can only achieve 26.4Vdc before the BMS cuts off charge because a single cell exceeds 3.65Vdc. Set your charge controller for 26.3vdc and it run there for about three weeks then slowly turn up the voltage by .1 or .2 every week till you can reach your desired voltage. I have two videos on balancing a battery and battery bank. Watch those two videos.

      Not at all. I did another video where I took it apart and it's actually pretty heavy duty. I believe the issue is more with the charge controller. I think the charge controller doesn't function well at 18Vdc and high current. I now use the panels in a 3S configuration at 54Vdcish, low current and it bangs.

    • @thechiefsway2618
      @thechiefsway2618 4 місяці тому

      I would definitely trust the charge controller to a point. The duty of the charge controller is to monitor the battery voltage and stop charging when it is full based on the battery type you had selected. The Renogy charge controllers do show about .1 to .2vdc low so keep that in mind.

      Yes you can connect the panels that way. That is a 4S 2P configuration. See my Video below on 3S Configuration but just use 4 panels. Just be aware that your open circuit voltage (VOC) will be about 88Vdc, and the full sun voltage (MPPT) will be about 72Vdc if using 100Watt Panels. Make absolutely sure you charge controller can handle that high of a voltage. I will be doing a 4S video this summer. ua-cam.com/video/wh-JdIQfAZ4/v-deo.html

These panels are the newer Harbor Freight 500w & not the older 300w panels. These are 6.2 Amp & 18 or 19 Volt max panels. My panels have gone to 6.2A and 14.8V so far, but stable at 5.3A & 14.2V during charging and usage (21.3A & 14.2V) Total of 4 X 100W panels. This is a great emergency power source.
