Hey man, awesome setup you have. We have a tiny townhouse with a stupid roof so not much room unfortunately. I would love to have gone big like that but only have 3.7kw of panels. Anyway, that sungrow has 2 MPPT inputs right? Do you have your East and West strings connected in Parallel into one of those strings and the North on it's own string? Also, are you on pvoutput? Cheers for the video!

@@offgriddreaming5403 Yeah I agree, anything is better than nothing! Thanks for the info about your tripple MPPT, that is cool. I think it makes sense for inverters to include more than 2 trackers but it historically hasn't been as common.

Have these (2x 310w) for 2 years now on my boat and they are worth every cent because they aren't cheap to buy. Very tough panels but the junction boxes on mine have sun damage and are a concern, I would recommend the bottom mounted junction boxes. They harvest sunlight like no panel I've had before with a record 4kws produced in a single day compared to the 2.3kws from traditional glass panels which needed frame work to support the weight, These I lay on netting to keep cool on the boats roof having a 5cm air gap for Qld summers. Am atm saving for 2 x 430w panels to run the air-con off a seperate battery bank. Overall I love the low weight, Low profile and high output.

It would be very difficult to rebuild a milwaukee battery as the pcb kinda shuts itself down when there is a fault. Have you tested the voltage with a multimeter? Maybe it's just low voltage in which case you may be able to jump strat it. Good luck 👍🏻

Never run these at their max rated voltage. I found ~75pvdc to be their limit. They work best when you use multiple chargers rather than 1 big one. So like 1 for every 2-3 solar panels.

Very useful! I was wondering how your Voilamart is behaving three years down the track? I live rural and would need 45k actual range with smallish hills involved. I was thinking that might be 60k to be safe, would that be14S 6P, not sure how that equates to Ah? I would love to get second hand celIs, but would be worried about being ripped off. Is it cheaper for a newbie to build their own (new), or get something off the shelf? You obviously have a lot of battery knowledge, I was wondering if you have any interest in sourcing battery parts yourself and selling parts for self-assembly or as complete kits? Tall ask, but you never know!! Many thanks.

Hi Sorry for the late reply. I would highly recommend the voilamart kit. I think that pack was 14s 5p. I would have a go at building a battery if you have some electrical knowledge, otherwise maybe try and find someone who could build one for you. If not off the shelf might be the go. Hope that helps
