Satellite TV Technology / Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by EdmundDantes(m): 6:02am On Mar 05, 2023
NiyiOmoIyunade:
Things are now far easier boss.

If you put the Victron Venus OS large image on a Raspberry Pi (be sure to use a 3B and not a Pi4) - you can natively connect your Victron smart shunt via VeDirect to USB, also your BMS can natively use the Venus OS driver for serial batteries so that SoC and cell level info are plug and play available on the Pi - works if your BMS is Daly or JBD or Jk and a host of others.

So already you have shunt and BMS data available on the VeBus network and available to use for info and control.

The Venus OS large image has NodeRed and you can create flows to pass BMS SoC data from the USB port of the Pi to the RS485 or CAN port of your Deye - if you are using CAN for control (charging etc) then you must have some control parameters setup.

For free Victron already provided you all the tools you need to attack most automation projects both on Victron and non Victron equipment cheesy grin grin




Hi. I appreciate the knowledge and insight you give on this thread. Can you be of assistance in getting the components and setting them up at a cost? I have a Deye 8kw with a 200ah/48v battery with bluetooth bms. Would love to have the inverter communicate directly with the battery. Thanks.

Wow! Thanks a lot Niyi.

No it's not an all victron setup. I'm using a deye/sunsynk 5kw inverter and batteries that only have Bluetooth comms. This limits me in terms of an ideal inverter config since there's no accurate soc value for the inverter to use, and using just voltages is not ideal

So I'll have the wifi module connected in the rs232 port on the inverter.. That will allow me to use the inverter's own wifi app but these are usually limited.

On the rs485 port, I want to connect a pi running solar assistant.

I'll now have a free CAN port and another rs485 port (meant for battery comms)
So wouldn't be able to implement this solution with another pi as a gx device unless I sacrifice solar assistant.



Hi. I am installing a Deye with a 200AH/48v battery with only bluetooth comm. Can you help with the battery settings on the Deye? Thanks.

@valto has 1 5kw deye for sale .
phocos is a great make also. but in terms of features, deye has more features, and is slightly more expensive as well

Thanks.

Good morning.
Please, I would like to know where I can get a Deye 5kw inverter and how much it costs. Residing in Asaba, Delta State.

Also, between a Phocos 5kw and a Deye 5kw, which should one go for. Taking price, features, quality/durability into consideration. Thanks.

Not likely to be an injury on him since we spoke over the phone and he sent a video were he was being dropped off an SUV with the drivers and other passengers face not shown

I don't understand this. Someone who was kidnapped was able to video himself being dropped off by the kidnappers?

With due respect you are asking some rather silly questions. So you don't know that in Nigeria, you call your Uncles " Bros" ?

Why do you want me to reveal details of family matters on a public forum.

Why do you think someone cannot be a full time housewife for 17 years when the husband works extremely hard to ensure that his families needs are met. That bros has never worked for anyone since 1997. He has been self employed quitely doing his logistics business.

Are you saying a woman that was receiving this benefits monthly cannot build two houses over the course of 17 years or what exactly is your point.

Please ask reasonable questions bro. You no be small pikin. You self don tey.

My Uncle's wife was collecting single parent benefits while she was a full time house wife. My Uncle is extremely hardworking and foots 100% of the house bills and has enough to spare.

Each time he builds a new house in Lagos, the wife will become sad, meanwhile the wife had competed two houses with the free money she was getting without my Uncle's knowledge.

Women are something else, just do your duty abd expect nothing from them and enjoy your life.

If somebody had told us all in 200AD that we would be using a cell phone, a lot of us would have called it demonic and probably roasted the person to death. But here we are 2000AD later, even with the advancement of technology within our very grasp, we are still no different from the "premitive" man of 200AD.

Given the billions of solar systems and galaxies in the observable universe, on the scale of probability i’d say intelligent life has existed and still does exist on planets that were or still exist today….planets that are the right distance from their sun and have the right stable and predictable conditions for life to exist. However, i doubt we’d ever be able to make some kind of contact with one another due to the vastness of the universe and its expansion at near speed of light! Even pictures taken with the best telescopes made by man only show distant galaxies as they existed when photons of light left them billions of years ago and headed in our direction. Some of the planets in them that were perfect at the time for intelligent live to have existed, may either not exist at present, or the civilisations on them would have risen and become extinct just as it would happen with us some day on earth. The planets may have been swallowed by their sun….been hit by harmful gama rays from some nearby celestial body (i think they’re called pulsar stars or something like that)….or been hit by a free-moving rogue planet or body that has become detached from its orbit around its sun!

With the right tech, distance is no barrier. I have seen a craft in motion faster than anything here on earth.

Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by EdmundDantes(m): 12:51pm On Sep 28, 2022
Goodday Oga Gazzuzz and other gurus in the house. Your expert advise is highly needed, please. I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla that I want to work on. The major/easily noticed problem with the car is the transmission. The car refuses to accelerate beyound 40kph. After about 30/40 minutes of driving, the speed reduces further and ultimately, the car refuses to move. One has to switch off the engine and restart the car before it responds and move very slowly.
Below are the initial codes obtained from scanning the car:
P0037-Oxygen Sensor Heater Control Circuit Low (Bank 1 Sensor 2)
P0751-Shift Solenoid "A" Performance or Stuck OFF
P2714-Pressure Control Solenoid "grin" Performance or Stuck OFF
P2757-Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Circuit Performance or Stuck OFF
C1201-Engine/EV Control System Malfunction
C1405-Open or Short in Front Speed Sensor RH Circuit
After clearing the codes and driving the car, we have the following codes currently present:
P0037-Oxygen Sensor Heater Control Circuit Low (Bank 1 Sensor 2)
P0751-Shift Solenoid "A" Performance or Stuck OFF
P2714-Pressure Control Solenoid "grin" Performance or Stuck OFF
P0300-Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected
P0301-Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected
P0302-Cylinder 2 Misfire Detected
P2757-Torque Converter Clutch Pressure Control Solenoid Circuit Performance or Stuck OFF
C1201-Engine/EV Control System Malfunction
C1405-Open or Short in Front Speed Sensor RH Circuit
I noticed that a can of Sea Max Dexron III was used in the car, don`t know if it has any negative effect. I believe the car is supposed to used Toyota WS ATF. Also noticed that thermostat has been removed and fan is always on. The advise I have so far is to change the gearbox (13 pins). Should I go with this or can the gearbox be fixed? Thanks.

A really nice gentleman that liked me alot. Did some service for him and from then on till he died he only patronized me. God bless his soul.
Possibly this must be his successor.

It was a very close colleague. First they told him it was the transmission control solenoid. He paid for it, it was changed and nothing changed. He was advised to replace with 610,000.

He felt the money was too much and they assured there was a gear specialist who can fix it. Gear specialist charged N170,000 and swore to the heavens he has done it countless times and succeeded. To cut the long story short, over 250k eventually went down the drain chasing shadows.

The transmission he didn't want to buy initially was what he eventually bought with about 650k.

Since then I have been spreading the information to whoever cares to listen.

Thanks for this. Planning to work on 2010 Corolla with gear issues. Already getting advice that it can be worked on. Think I will go for replacement.

The ac of 2006 toyota rav4 brings out white particles for about 4 minutes after first start of the day. What could be the cause and how can it be resolved? Thanks.

Gazzuzz and all the gurus, your help is kindly needed.

One other thing, the car intermittently fails to start. When I turn the key, the engine does not crank (dead silence). I have to wait for 2 or 3 minutes before starting it and it immediately starts without hesitation. This behaviour can occur at any time. I might drive for a week without it occurring. No code on the scanner. I use techstream and some others to scan.
