Hello house, please how good is Cworth lifepo4 lithium battery compared to Blue carbon battery? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Dam5reey(m): 9:23am On Dec 09, 2023 |
abuuthmaan: Cworth is well built. With New under capacity Cells. Their 48V 5kwh pack, is 4.4kwh. Blue carbon compromise on quality of cells used. |

Braaad: Is the setup hooked to a decent hybrid inverter?. Or do you have a means of logging daily energy harvested from solar panels and energy consumed by load. You say the system shuts down by 5pm and you installed the setup, so am assuming you are a bit knowledgeable. 1. Are the 4 batt banks connected with same cable size and lengths to a busbar..wherein the inverter picks up the energy from? 2. When the system shuts down by 5pm...have you checked the individual SoC or voltage of each battery pack? 3 Likes |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Braaad: 9:17pm On Dec 09, 2023 |
The system runs with 3 units SRNE inverters (which I trust to be "decent" -connected in parallel. I use Orange Pi with Solar Assistant for data logging daily since the system was installed. This logs daily energy harvested from solar and consumed by the loads, and also the SOC of the batteries at every time. The system doesn't shutdown by 5pm, the battery energy or SOC just drops from 200% to within 59% to 48 %. (The batteries must have been fully charged till floating - end of charge current pull from the battery is about 0A to 1.8A on average. With a load of about 2000w connected to the system, the battery will dip to 48% immediately the sun goes down. earthrealm: 1 Like 1 Share |

primefaith1: I had used the communication cables that came with the batteries to connect between them. But no communication between batteries and inverter. ( I think to he inverter doesn't have the battery protocol preset on the inverter) |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by primefaith1: 7:36am On Dec 10, 2023 |
Braaad: Go to page 14 of the manual and see how to communicate the batteries. 1 Master and 3 slaves. The communication is done by using the dial switch on the battery. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 8:25am On Dec 10, 2023 |
Braaad: All the 4 battery packs drops instantly to 48% soc? At the same time? If so i suspect some cells in the pack are out of balanced.which is why i prefer these diy/custom built packs, with bluetooth BMS that enables you see the individual cell capacity & voltage. But strange that all 4 packs will have this issue simultaneously. Must be a very poorly built pack... At this point, only option is to explore the warranty option. If out of waranty, open up and capacity test the cells, top balance then slap on a jk bt bms with 2amps balance current |

microgiant: Inverter bought from Valto, it is working great unlike the 1500w I was using before, which developed fault. It has been serving me since 2019, although I suspect actual capacity may be 500w. They just added 1 in front of the 500, because if the TV and Decoder only is on and I plug in a phone charger, it goes off and comes on again. But after getting this from Valto's shop in Bayelsa, the story has changed. ![]() Advice for those who are still waiting for millions to install an inverter system, I live in a rented apartment and can't install panels on the roof, no enough space in compound. My system in use since 2019, sachet inverter 1500w, 40A Lifepo4 x3 in parallel, Powmr 60a mppt solar charge controller, 160w x2 connected in parallel (installed on Fence), I have not bought much fuel since to watch TV, charge phones and use my Laptop while at home. Generator is fueled only to pump water. I use TV, Decoder, 2 AC/DC Fans connected to the inverter and 5W DC 12v bulbs connected to the batteries. Note: my panels are installed in the wrong orientation, facing North instead of South. 5 Likes

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ewizard1: 8:20am On Dec 11, 2023 |
Wow! Brand name batteries with their fake capacity labels. ![]() But most people would think a locally built battery with real same capacity should be cheap! Meanwhile, my "Locally Built" 24V 200Ah Real Capacity Lithium-ion battery is still available. Coupled with a Local Brand BMS and Super Active Balancer. Again! It is not cheap!!!

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojesymsym: 4:03pm On Dec 11, 2023 |
I believe some folks have made a case for North instead of South before. If I remember the argument correctly, it is that during the rainy season when you want to squeeze as much son from the sky as the sun is usually on the Northern hemisphere but that during most of the dry season that is when it moves to the south. microgiant: |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Ferdiwar: 4:39pm On Dec 11, 2023 |
I had almost same issue with my system (5kva Deye inverter and 5kwh Deye lithium battery), the communication cable was not properly plugged so there was no communication with the inverter and the battery so the readings was off. The inverter kept pumping current to the battery till the BMS shuts down and stops charging and battery SOC on the inverter will read 60% while the battery indicator suggest charge above 80%, I reached out to the guys at Xtra power where I bought the battery and was asked to confirm the connection which solved the issue after I reconnected the cable. You need to establish communication between the inverter and the batteries to enable the inverter have a proper information on the battery or try and play around with the settings. Braaad: |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Juror: 5:00pm On Dec 11, 2023 |
Ferdiwar: Could you have set the charge settings manually on the inverter as backup instead of relying solely on the coms? It's nice to see Deye lithium around, how much was it? |

Juror: Definitely I'll be concerned about leakages but saying I'll inherit the panels when the tenant is moving away is another thing entirely except I offer to buy them. Best an agreement is reached to seal the roof properly after the panels have been removed. I know many landlords don't joke with their roofs 2 Likes |

Ferdiwar: What lithium profile did you use on the inverter? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Ferdiwar: 10:52pm On Dec 11, 2023 |
Yes of course, the inverter is designed to work with other batteries too. To manually set the charge profile you'll have to select either battery voltage or % (frame 1) and adjust the charge parameters accordingly (frame 2). I got the battery @1.350m. Edit: sorry I couldn't upload the pictures Juror: 2 Likes |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Ferdiwar: 7:48am On Dec 12, 2023 |
The inverter automatically detected the battery to be a Deye battery when I connected the communication cable properly and used the default reset settings for Deye batteries. Same also goes for most of the known battery brands like pylontech etc. For the unknown brands it will adjust to the charge/discharge profile from the BMS or you manually adjust it based on the battery information. mank1234: |

Hybrid600: Sealing a roof is like joining wires.. no be everyone sabi do am well. Damage to roof means damage to other materials like wood, POP etc. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by Dam5reey(m): 8:05am On Dec 12, 2023 |
Juror: If comms is removed then, manually setting is active.. I just prefer comms anytime cause the BMS is telling the inverter the battery condition and allows charging/discharge accordingly.. |
