Wow, that's a very nice expandable battery!! And great video :D

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

Thanks Man! I am really liking the wall mounted batteries!🤘

@Bowhunters6go8xz6x 26 дней назад

Awesome video, now you can run the AC at night on batteries without worrying too much !

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

Thanks and Appreciate that! I think my AC will drainer down quick. My house was poorly insulated...😭

@jpbliss1 25 дней назад

Joe, aside from the video content, (which is fascinating to me), I commend you for the production value. Good audio, explanations, annotations, etc. Really impressive work!

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

THANKS! I 100% Appreciate that! Hows your system doing?

@ahaveland 26 дней назад

Nice one Joe, you should do this for a living! 🙂 Glad you covered making sure states of charge should be similar - this worries me in case someone connects an empty battery to a fully charged one. (I've had copper vapor flash burns a couple of times from shorts!) I think some manufacturers might mediate and equalize the charge gently and then engage relays or mosfets to make a hard connection, but that would add expense and extra resistance so I wouldn't count on it.

@colormaker5070 26 дней назад

That was my first thought as he did a battery shutoff with 1 indicator lit. That explosion clip gets me every time. I miss the farts though 😊

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

There was a fart in there🤭

@thedabbler2753 26 дней назад

Ah that feeling of adding capacity! To paraphrase Chief Brody, “you’re gonna need a bigger wall.” 🦈

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

LOVE adding moar capacity!!! WE NEED MOAR WALL😜

@wayne8113 25 дней назад

Thanks Joe

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

Thank you for Watching Wayne!🤘

@kevinmills5293 25 дней назад

It’s a very neat system. If it stacked from the bottom (controller at the bottom) adding more batteries would be a lot easier. Useful to see how to add batteries but I’d have thought anyone willing to spend that much money would have it installed professionally.

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

Yeah thats true! Having the controller at the bottom would make it easier. I think they would want to make that box a little stronger lol, its pretty light. Yeah this is a UL certified system so it can 100% be installed by a professional or installer.

HOWdy A-V-R-J, ... Thanks COOP ...

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

HOW DO

@clarencewiles963 26 дней назад

Now I’m thinking your power wall is ready for an overnight. Thumbs up 👍

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

100%...without AC lol🤘

@Self.reliant 25 дней назад

I knew joe had some screws missing lol

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

That slipped out😆😆🤘

@kuhrd 26 дней назад

Seems like a lot of wall space for only 300Ah but I suppose most of these smaller stackable battery modules take up quite a bit of wall space compared to a server rack full of 280-304Ah batteries.

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

They are basically server rack batteries mounted on there side or on the wall to get away from the big server rack.

@terrahillfarm 26 дней назад

Having a 6 sever rack battery system in a large wheeled case, I have to say I’m a little jealous of all the extra free space you get with a wall mount battery system like this one. This system still gives you some redundancy in case one battery fails. You just pull it out. 🤩👍☀️⚡️

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

My first system was in a server rack and it took up so much space. Main reason I mounted my next diy battery(not finished) on the wall. I really like the wall mounted stuff!🤘

@sebastienmuniz9788 26 дней назад

Clean work ! I still think ep cube rocks !

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

Thanks! Yeah the EP Cube is a nice looking wall mount system as well!

@cyumadbrosummit3534 15 дней назад

Been running my entire house off grid with 66kWh of recycled Tesla modules for 3 year (there is no cheaper $ per kWh battery) for 1/5th the price and space requirements of this setup.

@AveRage_Joe 15 дней назад

Hell Yeah! Yeah diy can be a lot cheaper for sure!🤘

@CJ-er1pf 24 дня назад

Nice install really neat. I have a question: With the new battery installed, why you didn't add second pair of power cables to the inverter?

@AveRage_Joe 24 дня назад

Great question. Id like to find some bigger flex conduit but didnt want to buy a whole roll for 2-3ft. The battery cables are 1/0 as well so I will be good for a bit! I also want to test out some other batteries I have here.

@CJ-er1pf 24 дня назад

@AveRage_Joe Great can't can't wait for those videos in the future.

@1982757 25 дней назад

Clean and Nice install! Is the 15kwh the nominal or usable capacity? What is the recommended DOD of this battery?

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

Yeah it is! I actually havent done a full capacity test yet. Recommended from the manual it says down to 20% can exceed 6000 cycles (lifespan of over 10 years and is engineered to withstand more than 4000- 8000 cycles at 80% Depth of Discharge (DOD) at a rate of 0.5C)

@lezbriddon 25 дней назад

I only have 8kwh, but its only a small camper

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

Thats not bad for a small camper!

@johngermain5146 26 дней назад

Been waiting for this video. looks like the upgrade went well. I was always interested in the configuration, ... that is , should I buy two then get one more or buy three then get two more? Always finding questions. Looks like you solved yours and the system is looking good!

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

We gotter done and yes, it went well. I would for sure get a 3 stack and go from there. I am by no means trying to upsell. Depending on what you plan to do. Off grid or as a backup. If your house gets sun on the panels early to start charging. Your golden. I dont get sun on my panels till noon due to trees. If we dont run the AC, 15kWh will get us through the night. If we use the AC....not even close lol our house is drafty and poorly insulated🤭😁

@shubinternet 26 дней назад

Interesting. I always thought that data cables had to be separate from the power cables? And if the data and power cables have to cross, then they should do so at a 90 degree angle?

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

I havent heard that. Ill have to look into that. If so Ill have to run another flexi.🤔🤘

@jdorville 25 дней назад

You are right if the UTP cables are not shielded and they are near of AC power cables, but DC power cables do not make any electromagnetic fields, so UTP cables will not be affected. Regards

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

That is good info!🤘

@TheBomo 26 дней назад

Now that’s a big battery 🔋 Haha 😂 name dropping big battery

@AveRage_Joe 25 дней назад

💥💥BOOOOOOOM!!💥💥😜🤘

@caserio323 26 дней назад

system is ok for some one who like good looking system but 9 k for just 10 kwh is to much for the price.. i get 32 eve lifepo4 304ah cells i make 2 48v bank i get 30 Kwh for half of what this company is charging. i do understand you got it free system for the grate video you make. but that is way not to many of us can not affordable. what happened w the old day we DIY stuff? you just to appreciate DIY Projects. we stop doing this videos. we need them back joe.grate video. nothing personal just missing the real Videos

@ahaveland 26 дней назад

We can all make cheap batteries with the skills we have acquired over the years, but what we often forget that our time also has a price! I still have 1000 good 18650s that I haven't managed to find the time to make a 13 or 14S pack out of, and am too busy working or sleeping to expect to be able to, so will probably go for a system such as this when prices come down a bit more. If you can do it, then go for it, but there are also people that want to just buy a system which is also supported and has a guarantee - and that's important if your house is on the line!

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

Yeah for sure, doing a diy set up can be cheaper. I still have to finish mine🤦‍♂️😁 Ill be getting back to that here soon.

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

I ended up selling the thousands of 18650,s I had set aside. Most of them tested🙄😆 Yeah that is very true. A lot of people just want a system meow or dont have those skills to diy. Man I really need to get back to my diy system😀

@jamesroyal8331 24 дня назад

So if I lose power how long would they be able to run both freeze and lights and tv without worrying?

@AveRage_Joe 24 дня назад

Batteries running them only and no solar? My fridge uses 1.7 to 2kWh a day. Led lights and tv are usually pretty low consumption. I dont know how much your 2 frezzers use but just throwing out a guess, Id say 3 days.

@jamesroyal8331 24 дня назад

@AveRage_Joe thank you very much. I usually lose power for around this long so it would be very good for me.

@AveRage_Joe 24 дня назад

Of course when the grid is gone I would imagine you would not open the freezers as much and or conserve a little. If you had some solar coming in then much much longer.

@hollywoodj500 26 дней назад

Joe can you please put the link of that lift table?

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

Here it is on amazon amzn.to/4bNPXa8 I got the "cheapest" I could find that would hold over 300lbs and raise higher then many others. Seems to work great so far. Only assembly was the handles🤘

@randya9143 26 дней назад

Northern Tools or Harbor Freight

@AveRage_Joe 26 дней назад

Only reason I didnt get one from them was the limited height...that I saw at the time I ordered.

@acefire4050 24 дня назад

I guess it only could be a backup. 15 kilowatches, but half the power you use. If you have a 100% of your house underneath electricity, I'm not just playing a light bear of everything. Cause I do believe more people like you use more power than that and engage time. Cause you still hook up to the power line. A person like me don't have that option..

@AveRage_Joe 24 дня назад

Yeah I use more then 15k. If we are in the spring or fall, we could survive on 15k. Once we turn on the AC....Game over lol Yes we do have the grid as a backup.
