LBS OFFERS A 4-YEAR FULL REPLACEMENT WARRANTY THAT COVERS MANUFACTURER DEFECTS WITHIN THE WARRANTY TIME FRAME. USE TERMINAL POST COVERS TO PREVENT ANY SHORT CIRCUIT CIRCUMSTANCES.FOR LONG-TERM STORAGE KEEP BATTERY CHARGED AT 30%–50% OF CAPACITY.DO NOT EXPOSE THE BATTERY TO FIRE & HIGH TEMPERATURES.COVERED BOX NEEDED IF BATTERY IS INTENDED TO BE USED IN MARINE APPLICATIONS.NEVER SHIP OR STORE THE BATTERY WITH METAL.NEVER CONNECT THE POSITIVE AND THE NEGATIVE OF THE BATTERY WITH METAL.Plus, when the MPPT is in Float mode.there is zero current flowing into the battery. Maybe I have my battery charged voltage set too high? The MPPT has absorption set at 14.4V and Float at 13.8. The only thing I can think of is the manufacturer has documentation that the battery resting voltage 100% SOC at 13.6V. In the chart below, you can see where I did the reset and then the voltage coming back up and each time the SOC decreases. I've repeated this process with a variety of settings.scenario stays the same. In the morning, the MPPT Solar charger kicks in just for a very short period of time (3x100watt panels) and brings the battery voltage back up to 14.2V.yet the SOC stays at 92%. The trolling motor does not have an alternator and, therefore, cannot recharge its batteries like your outboard motor does. What I see is a gradual decrease in the SOC overnight to 13.8V / 92% SOC. Did Sync to 100% SOC and let it sit overnight. I have Full Charge set to 14.2V per the battery manufacturer (300Ah). I do have a known parasitic draw (~.5Ah) on the house battery given the design on my Airstream Interstate. Nothing is on battery side, except battery - wire.

I hope these suggestions can be taken into consideration, at least in part… at least the talk of battery monitor cycles. When I had the Epever-based system, a simple object costing 20 euros would record months of data at a time in.

The trend is only available on the App for 46 days and the possibility to save the history every 30 days (but only manually) from the smartsolar. Instead it is the only data that is only available in real time.Ĥ) it is a pity that a small economic accessory is not available that records in a memory all the data of historical trends in CSV format to be exported.

It would be nice if the AH count was implemented in the historical trends of the smartshunt. This temperature is certainly detected by the smartsolar but is not displayed.ģ) it would be nice in the 'trends' section to be able to cross the curves of 3 values and not just 2.įor example 'battery voltage + battery current + soc'. actually never below 80%.Ģ) it would be nice if the victron Connect app for the smartsolar also displays the internal temperature of the solar controller. In fact, I have average discharges of 25/30 ah and this is not detected, since my battery pack is 178ah and I never discharge below 65%. In fact, the average discharge is based on cycles and not on synchronizations. This also leads to an inaccurate reading of the average discharge. So no cycle counts, apart from synchronizations. I live in a pretty good climate and never run out of batteries below 80/85%.

IN my RV the system is correctly sized, the batteries are agm for 178ah, and the photovoltaic of 450 watts. This is incorrect in my opinion for lead acid batteries one should count a cycle even at 90% or 85%. Hello, after 2 years of use and study I noticed fews things that Victron products can improve a lot with little effort.ġ) the count of the cycles of the smartshunt and of the various models of BMV.
