They are made with CATL LFP cells. I chose them as they compatible with my Growatt inverters. I would recommend them, but a single large battery is easier then a few smaller one as you don't have to worry about balancing them.

​@@EcoHouseThailand got to love smart batteries, much more reliable than the lazy and/or forgetful owner operated/maintained (myself included)

Thanks for sharing the pictures, I remember they created a good deal of interest in the forum

What is real range on full battery on motorway? Around 100-120 km/h?

@@SerceWTropikach Some people in the Aseannow EV forum here have claimed to get close to the official range, but as I charge mine for free and enjoy using the 3.8 seconds acceleration get closer to 500km

@@EcoHouseThailand Thank you for the answer. Have a nice self sufficient day.

Might be easier if you watch the 2 earlier videos I did on V2L which are linked in the description, where I show the transfer switch in action. There is no app, I plug the car into my inverter when I need some extra power

My installer is very good. He is a Thai graduate engineer. Lots of videos on my channel of his work. His name is Tam [email protected] facebook.com/buachetsolarcell

There is a Spotify app imbedded into the infotainment system. You log on with your account and it remembers what track was playing the last time you were in the car. It is the fastest way to get music playing. After the infotainment screen has loaded, you can play your own music from your phone over Bluetooth, wireless connect your phone to android Auto or Apple car play and use any music apps you have. You can also load music from the SD card that is used for the Dash Cam. BYD has added a few apps over the year I have owned the car, like KZbin and a browser, but these 2 only work when the car is stationary.

@@fknracer High is the regen level

Yes my house is single phase. It was designed to be off-grid so grid power was only going to be a temporary thing during the build. I have never had 3 phase electrics.

I have never tried that as it could exceed the V2L maximum power output of 3.5 kW and V2L could well shut down.

@@EcoHouseThailand I just wondered if there was a way of limiting the total draw without disrupting the house load - so just dumping the excess up to say 90% of the total v2l limit.

@@007silverwings I don’t think you can limit power output from the car

@@EcoHouseThailand I guess the only way would be to feed the car into the hybrid inverter and charge the batteries with a programmed wattage limit, or as you do, power the house.

@@Airbag888 My MG is over 4 years old and doesn’t have V2L but new MGs like the MG4 do. I started my solar journey 6 years ago with 11kW of 350W PV then increased to 20kW using 550W panels. There a plenty of videos on my channel about my solar system this is the latest: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpK0e3amapVof8Usi=9KTb-aUR_8E-qya4 Land: we have 3.5 Rai (1.4 Acres) (0.56 hectares) around the house and about 7 rai a few hundred meters away - videos on the channel

​@@EcoHouseThailand so are you looking to adopt by any chance 😂

@@Airbag888I have a one year old son and no plans to adopt

Several years ago I purchased a bunch of smart Xiaomi temp and humidity monitors. They only work when connected to the Xiaomi China server which I no longer have access to, so they are now just dumb displays. I am about to replace them with Tuya devices to add to my Home Assistant server, this will give me access to historical data. The house is designed to naturally cool and vent via stack effect and as a result we hardly ever (1 or 2 days/year) have aircon on in the living room, meaning that we don’t use the ERV much as well. The only rooms we really use aircon is the bedroom, my office and the cinema. All the aircons in the house are just 8,500 BTU.

Did you watch the first video on V2L? link in the description

The V2L adapter that came with the car was restricted to 2.6kW from memory. I bought an aftermarket 3.5kW which I thought was maximum for the car. I only V2L at night as I have a lot of solar and home batteries, so I rarely draw more than 1kW

@@EcoHouseThailand Great, what made you think the 3.5kw was the maximum?

@@georgehartshorn8932 What I have seen online, but I haven’t tested it to confirm

3,Y,S+X don’t, CT does

Watch my video on home energy monitoring, because you not only need to know what your monthly electricity usage is but also what your peak loads and when they occur. I had solar for 7 years before returning my meter so I was confident that I would be ok going off-grid. I am also retired so I can charge my EV in the middle of the day.

I have the same inverter. Not sure if you have seen all 3 of my videos on this topic this is video 3 of 3 - links in the description. I don’t have a grid connection so V2L is connected to grid input on the inverter. The adapter supplied with my Seal was only rated for 2.5kW, so I bought a higher rated after market one. The cable I used was a high capacity one. I only use V2L at night when I am using less than 1kW most of the time. If you exceed the 2.5kW of the adapter, maybe a pump coming on, the maybe V2L will disconnect and you will have to reset it.

@@EcoHouseThailand I did watch the video, just couldn't understand why it wouldn't work for me, I even reduced AC IN limit to 10A. I even removed AC out to see if batteries would charge, inverters just doesn't accept the car. There are victron forms with people having the same issue. I'm glad your setup works well. Thanks for creating the videos.

3.5kW. I set my inverter priorities to Grid (V2L) then Solar then batteries. I don’t have a DC charger as they still quite expensive. Both my EVs came with free 7kW AC chargers.

@@EcoHouseThailand sorry for my lack of knowledge is your inverter a hybrid type? I have a conventional fronious inverter ATM, So I'm trying to work out what bits I need to buy. I see that box on your pole next to your seal what exactly is that called? Also is it necessary to have other house battery storage or could i just use my car for powering the house overnight. These hydrid inverters from ready need a battery attached? Thanks mate

@@triplex7144My inverters are hybrid off-grid, so they can draw power from the grid but can’t feed back power. The box is an outdoor waterproof electrical box. It initially held my V2L adapter. My overnight load is less than 1kW if you need more than V2L can provide like when pumps come on with a big initial spike then you will need another power source like grid power via an automatic transfer switch. V2L can trip off if the max load is exceeded and will need resetting

@@EcoHouseThailand thanks very much for the information much appreciated.

Warning indicator if you exceed the max speed you selected (looks like a speed sign) I have it switched off .

@fnordpol I can run my house at night for 12 hours with aircon and servers running and only deplete the battery by 7kWh so it seems very efficient

@@EcoHouseThailand I cant tell because I have no idea how much of those 7KWh is getting used by your house and how much is getting used by your car. If your car burns through en extra 300 Watt just to keep the MCU and Battery condition running, this would loose half of the power you are draining. And the thing is: I have checked the reports and calculated this drain this on other models. In your scenario it is mostly the question if you should probably charge your house battery from your car, and turn the car of to get better efficiency. In my case I plan to power a camper with it off grid and it is the question if I can run 2 days or a full week on the battery.

@@fnordpolYou should watch my video on “how to size battery storage for home solar” The seal is way more efficient than my home solar setup. When people choose inverters they never consider their efficiency, but with EVs that’s practically all they talk about.

The link is in the description. Maybe look for a similar item on AliExpress if you don't have access to Lazada online market place

3.6kW, but the supplied adapter is rated for only 2.6kW, so I bought an after market one. I only use mine at night as I have solar. It can run 2 aircons (8,500 BTU) multiple fans as well as stuff that is switched on 24/7 like fridges, freezers, and servers.

@@EcoHouseThailand What was the aftermarket charger that you bought? Cheers George

@@georgehartshorn8932 Here in Thailand EVs only started selling in 2019 so new EVs come with free wall chargers bundled with the car. My MG came with an MG branded charger and my BYD came with a ABB charger.

​@@EcoHouseThailandAs I understand you rather power a few selected appliances than 'home'. And you still have to disconnect form the wall charger and plug the V2L adapter to do that? Am I right? The perfect V2H would use the wall charger both ways and allow at last 11 kW load on car!

@pawefiett2468 ​I power the whole house load at night. My inverter priority setting is Solar, Grid, Batteries, with Grid being my Seal as I don't have a meter. I charge my car from solar during the day as I don't have a grid connection, so yes my charger is unplugged at night. The Seal has V2L using an adapter not V2H using a bi-directional charger like the F150 Lightning which is very expensive.
