Re: help me choose between these 3 lifepo4 battery cells

yes I'll update the thread when I receive the cells (about 2 months)
Why an active balancer, isn't the BMS enough to balance the cells? After a few charges/discharges by using the battery I think...

Re: help me choose between these 3 lifepo4 battery cells

yes it's probably old cells with fewer cycles remaining, but for the price it's fine for me. I will choose a good BMS so it will keep it in a good health.
A 12v 300Ah battery is more than 1000€ here...

Finally bought these 320Ah

Re: Protecting flexible solar panels with glass?

Nope but it seems to be a good idea. Though it defeats the purpose of remaining stealth :)





I'm not sure about the engineers taking much time to think about this problem since their...

Re: Protecting flexible solar panels with glass?

I bought cheap flexible panels I don't think they have an ETFE layer. I know what I bought is garbage but I'd like to make them last more.
Even ETFE flexible panels don't last long in general,...

Re: Protecting flexible solar panels with glass?

I didn't thought of the heat problem... As a matter of fact that's a real concern.
I'll let an air gap between the panel and the glass sheet, by putting silicon/glue only on regular interval not on...

Re: Protecting flexible solar panels with glass?

Thanks for your help.
I can't store them since I'll mostly live in the RV, they will be on the roof all the time.
I cant buy framed panels, I'd like to stay stealth and remain under a certain...

Re: help me choose between these 3 lifepo4 battery cells

thanks for your feedback. I'd go with the last one then, at first it surprised me because I4ve never seen green cells, in a stretched format. The drawbacks is that they don't include busbars and...

Re: Best Sewing Machine

In 2016, I asked for a fancy sewing machine for a holiday and my husband took me shopping (awww, isn’t he sweet?). I figured that because I used my sewing machine so much, I should invest in an...
