You’re most welcome my friend!

First time ever working with an EnjoyBot, have to say it’s nice seeing they have a quality product. Thanks for stopping by! 👍

I haven’t used Victron AutoX or others. If I was wanting 240 split phase I would prefer a dedicated inverter to support this. (Less components to fail and less losses through the system) If I had 120V and wanted split phase I would buy a properly rated buck boost with 120V primary 120/240 secondary. There will be losses of course through the windings but it would be robust and provide decades of trouble free service.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I was thinking about a alternative way to generate 240volt. ​@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD

Sorry I couldn’t provide a first hand experience with the AutoX. Have seen buck/boost that are over 50yrs old and still working perfectly.

Thanks! Glad you’re enjoying! Self-heating options are becoming more common from manufacturers. This is good to see for those living in cold regions. Price is coming down on these units as well! Take care!

These were not my Growatt units. They most likely will not be seen on film again. This system is undergoing retrofits and upgrading.

The battery is capable of 20Amps. Check your specifications on your DC refrigerator to make sure. Example Bodega brand units usually pull 6A so it would run a Bodega cooler. Hope this helps!

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD THANKS FOR THE ANSWER...!!!

You’re welcome!

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD I WILL MAKE MY OWN SETUP BASED IN YOUR VIDEO...THANKS.

14.4 volts*

LiFePO4 charges to 14.2-14.6 depending on your charge preference/cell voltage target. After coming off the charger within an hour or so, the voltage will usually settle to 13.5-13.6 and after 24 hours some will settle to 13.4-13.5. You can’t go off voltage like lead acid. I have some links to an affordable energy meter in the description that tracks the energy in/out of battery. Or you can use a larger 500A shunt and program it to coulomb count for you. Hope this helps!

You’re most welcome! Thanks for stopping by to watch and comment!

This is catered to automotive uses, just showing some other uses for it, mainly lead acid golf cart batteries is why I purchased! I can show some other solar tools/meters, any brand/specific tools you had in mind?

Awesome! Aims are simple and tough. I’m considering another Aims inverter but in split phase 120/240 for another project I’m working on! Take care!

Probably best to have a stand alone 120v to 12V dedicated charger. You can charge from multiple sources to one battery bank as long as you don’t exceed battery rating. Noeifevo makes an excellent charger that’s quite efficient and affordable. Various charging rates available as well. Hope this helps!

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD awesome!! thanks for the info and help

You’re most welcome! Hope your build goes well!

Self heating batteries are appropriate for cold climates such as yours. The heaters warm the battery to an acceptable temperature before initiating charging to the cells. This is controlled by the battery BMS. Temgot battery is one example and has a nice unit out that is self heating. There are others out there too. Hope this helps!

I believe the trolling motor unit has the TVS diode whereas the others don’t. Also it’s a G24 format. I can’t speak on the group 31 as I haven’t worked with it, sorry I couldn’t be more helpful!

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD Thanks you were helpful. I was looking at the Classic and it was a few dollars cheaper.I was curious why..

Probably due to size format. Usually the smaller case command a slight premium. Minis and G24 are usually more $ than G31 size cases. Don’t know why but that’s how they price them.

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD ah ok that makes sense

As long as load is under 2400 it retains proper and safe working voltages. Any resistive load (cooktops/heating elements) will just produce less power from a lower voltage. It’s inductive loads like refrigeration compressors, motors etc that can be harmed by the low voltage of this machine is overload. 👍

You’re most welcome! Peak is rated 4400W. (That was a 3300W load) the dropping voltage is part of a “soft start “ technique that some inverters use to try and start a load without tripping or melting the fuses off the PCB. This control logic is also seen in many 12V HF power inverters but they will usually trip in a shorter time frame. I would have run it longer but my other power station off camera that was part of the “load” was getting upset!

Thank you!! I wouldn’t series 2 (24V) LiFePO4 that will give you 51.2V nominal which exceeds the input voltage (48V max) boost charging in the unit, input has to be lower than battery voltage. This one has 15S battery which is 48V not 51.2 like a 16S pack. 2(12V LiFePO4) in series would work and would deliver 240-280W into the machine depending on SOC/voltage Hope this helps!

Thank you! The side receptacles units do have disadvantage of not stacking together nicely on a shelf. Got to leave room between them to open the little cover and route cords. At least on this unit there’s only one cover. Some units have 2 covers to open to access charge on one side and AC outlets on the other!

You’re most welcome! 👍

Glad you enjoyed the review. During the long term field test I stayed under its limits and treated normally, no complaints out of the unit. Not a ripper of a machine but it is quite affordable and capable within its specs. Good refrigerator backup power or camping power 100%.

You’re most welcome! Thank you!

With the free panel offer it’s a good deal as long as one stays within and understands its limitations! Take care my friend!

Thanks BrushBum! Have a nice Labor Day holiday as well my friend!

I usually don’t test to high current shutdown, my capacity test setup and inverter won’t handle extreme current testing. Regardless I would have OCPD at 100A on this battery if in use, so that would activate before a BMS overcurrent trip delay from either current sensing or thermal trip.

I’ve got them mounted to the wall of my power shed on a piece of 1/4” concrete board/tile backer. Comes with a template to align the screws for installing. 4 keyhole openings on the rear back plate slide over the screws. Hope this helps!

@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD Thank you Sir. I am mounting mine on a "z channel" to raise them off the mounting surface. It will be in a motorhome exterior cabinet/storage bin. I hooked mine up earlier (60A) version and heard a ZAP!! it's doa....amazon refunded and shipped out a replacement without issue. Hope it gets here by the 4th so I can install it and head to Idaho to do some gold panning 😁

Sorry to hear you had a doa, assuming all the working voltages /PV input were correct? Gold prospecting in Idaho sound like a blast! I do a little gold prospecting myself on occasion. Hope you get everything worked out and have a good time! Best of luck to you!

920Ah @ 12V? .1C charge rate would be 92A, so 100A barely over. Manufacturers mostly recommend .2C rates or lower charging for longest possible life. Hope this helps!

Glad you enjoyed! Your observation is exactly why I check them out! At least 2 to 3 new brands popping up every week. Redodo, LiTime, PowerQueen, Lossigy have been around for years and are solid options. Newer brands (less than 2yr) that are good and maintain consistent quality are LiPuls, GrenerPower and XZNY.

Yes we make Raspberry, Strawberry, Blackberry jams/preserves all grown and processed at home!

Hope this can help you, kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHmUqXiHjbihn9ksi=d5O3GysVIYt7vQZb

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD thx you =) ill watch it now

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD It does but my 300ah battery will be outside on my rv hanging below on the undercarriage and the dems are around 13.58 long and about 7.48 inches wide. I am replacing two 100ah batteries. Can you recommend batteries for that? Thank you!

Glad you found the video helpful and were able to save money and repair! Good to hear this and one of my main goals is to help others save time, money and frustration too! Thanks for taking time to comment and share your experiences. I appreciate you! 👍

Thanks! According to their website, you should be able to contact them before ordering for custom connectors! I just went with the Anderson due to having a whole stack of the A50s on various devices. Thanks for stopping by to watch and comment, haven’t seen you in a while!

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD OK I'll check that out. Catch ya later.

Thanks Tobi, definitely a solid performer! Appreciate you stopping by!

Thanks for sharing your experience!

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD I am having INCREDIBLE trouble with Bioenno Products! In 2018 my wife and I bought a 12 Volt 100 Amp LifePO4 Battery. It has a 20 Year Warranty. It failed this Year. Kevin has replaced it, and offered a 200 Amp replacement for my inconvenience. It came today. IT IS DEFECTIVE OUT OF THE BOX! I want to share with your Subscribers my latest communication to Kevin I sent 15 Minutes ago: NEW 200 Amp Battery is stopping at 13.4 Volts. Was on the 35 amp Charger for three Hours. It is NOW on the 10 Amp Bioennon Charger. History: Bought 100 Amp Battery-Failed at 6 Years. Bought 2 Pure Sine Inverters-Both failed within Three Weeks.One of them failed THE FIRST DAY! Bought SEVERAL 40 Amp Batteries- 2 of which failed and you replaced them. Bought 2 20 Amp Charge Controllers 1 Failed. I believe you replaced that, but do not have the records to verify this. Yesterday, the SECOND 20 Amp Charge Controller Failed. Installed the new 30 Amp you sent me. We'll see what happens. 10 Amp Bioenno Charger now says new 200 Amp Battery if full. Surface voltage across Battery Leads is reading.13.37 Volts. I BELIEVE THIS BLF1220AS IS ALSO DEFECTIVE! WHAT-THE-%@@$#$#?! I'm very sorry, Kevin. This SEALS IT! Here is what I would like to do. A. Return EVERYTHING! Both Charge Controllers, Both sets of 50 Amp Jumpers, and BOTH Batteries. B. I want a Refund Check for $862.49, the current price of the BLF1210AS. I have lost faith in your products. Bruce A. Forster

You’re most welcome brushbum! Hope you have a good evening as well my friend!

Glad you enjoyed! Duly noted on your content request! I have plenty of 24V content inbound soon, thanks for watching!

You’re most welcome, thanks for stopping by to watch! 👍

There are all kinds of voltage and current options with this brand, I’ll be a return customer 100%! Glad you enjoyed the review, thanks for stopping in to watch and comment!

120V mini split will work with portable power stations. You just power the outdoor unit. The mini split wiring controls and powers the indoor air handler. Here’s an example of one kzbin.info/www/bejne/bXynmYOLbrebiMUsi=prssk0uNeXonqUnl Hope this helps

Always on a budget here as well, why I always try to find best value in these components! Glad you have a system up and running, this is an achievement you should be proud of. It’s taken years to build my system up. Keep at it until it’s the way you want it! You got a great set of batteries no doubt. That is the plan with the Redodos here as well, 24V. Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate you!

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for sharing your current charger experience! Hope you can check out a Noeifevo and have a better charging experience!

You’re most welcome, glad it was helpful to you! 👍

You’re most welcome my friend!

Awesome! Glad you like your LiPuls and that Bioenno power honored their warranty! Never worked with their products unfortunately. Got you a nice sized battery bank now! 👍

@@THEOFFGRIDMOUNTAINHOMESTEAD Absolutely. And I am GENUINELY thanking God for this amazing blessing! When the Bioenno Battery gets here, I'll have a 5.12 kWh Power Bank in our Home! Do you have an email where I can contact you directly? I discovered a VERY interesting thing I can do with a less than 600 Watt Solar Array.

As stated in the video I carry the small panel bc it fits in the bed. Also stated that 200W would be bare minimum to keep up with a 16cf refrigerator

You’re most welcome my friend!

Believe you’re off a digit. 5 hours @ 100W is 500Wh so 25 hours to charge from 0-100%. This panel was for a demonstration and one I keep in the back of cart or lay on the roof. As I stated in video it would be minimum of 200W of panel to keep up with a 40 watt per hour average refrigerator under good conditions. I charge the battery with a 25A charger from another small 12V system. Cart has its own charge controller and boost charger built in.
