How is your experience with your battery banks? Pink

I see ready battery banks do not cost much more than 16 new battery,, Also something to think about. Pink

$35 +$24 delivery pr piece ($383/16) is $59 or TB2100+ per piece delivered, So maybe not so cheap. Pink

You have any link? Pink

I have not discuss this price, i only see it: Sinopoly 280a new CATL Pink

So your getting 166ah from the 200ah battery? Same seller also sell the black batteries seen on Lazada: Sinopoly 3.2V 200 Ah Prismatic Solar Pack with plastic shell USD 36 Pink

I guess 16 x 280Ah USD 105 each +383 Delivery (Thailand Special Line) =USD 2016 or THB73K is not to bad. Pink

Thanks for that info BritManToo that was useful info. I also found much good and useful info in your solar build tread. Pink

Used Calb batteries (the blue type) is now around 30k for 16 x 200Ah. New 16 pcs CATL 280Ah from China (trusted seller, Jenny Wu from Docan Tech) to Thailand (Thailand Special Line, taxes eyc included) , the cost is 16*105+383 Delivery =USD 2016 or THB73K. Adjusted for difference in nominal Ah around double the price for new. When i checked a few months ago delivery was near USD 500 + fees ( customs etc.) What is the experience with the used calb? what actual Ah to expect and any idea about expected life time? So the big questions is what to choose? Pink

I just emailed some with well known EVE/CATL seller who confirmed shhe could offer me CATL 302Ah: 126USD per piece shipped with Thailand special Line... so now I'm waiting exited how much is that delivery !!! Pink

Currently researching BMS for my setup: I expect to end up with 2 x 16 200A (48v) Calb batteries. Inverter max charge 2 x 100 AH. I want a setup who not push any limits and who also give long battery life. Any suggestions for a good BMS setup for this? I have currently looked at: BMS Daly 16S 48V 100A ( I guess i also need Bluetooth) Ant Smart BMS 7-16S 80A Qucc Smart BMS 6S-16S 80A Pink

I know some around Issan have, i was at the Nakhon Ratchasima branch Pink

When buy at Alibaba its not much seller warranty, but i not count much in for warranties here either. BTW the latest version take 22A the previous 18A. I wanted the 22A. I will give a update with more details when i got mine, so we see its all as expected. Pink

Thanks for that Crossy that was good news. Here is a updated version, hopefully correct if not let me know. Pink

I currently use 20kw per day. My setup is 28 panels x 330w= 9240w (Inverter capacity is 6000w x 2= 12000w) . I will use 2 inverters with 2 parallel sting each: 45.5v x7 = 318,5v and 18.4A Inverter capacity: 450 vdc and 22A. Then battery i expect to be 2x200A 48v. In my calculation it should be enough to cover my needs ( or most of it) and with margins for the setup to not push any limits. Pink

Here is a simple drawing Pink

Today i got another 8 panels today, same deal 2990,-. They just refilled so i know some Global, if any need more panels. Pink

In North Europe where I'm from Prices of electricity is now x5 of normal!!! And 6 months +waiting list to get solar installed. Pink

Not much any more.. Manual says: recommended spec of AC breaker is 40A for SPF 3500 ES and 50A for SPF 5000 ES. I have a pending order for 32A, its to less? Pink

I have placed a order of breakers on aliexpress but they estimate 2 months delivery... thats forever to wait.. I ordered TOMZN ac and dc breakers who from my research should be in the sweet spot of great value, fair quality to fair price. Any ideas for some faster solution of good mid prized breakers? Aliexpress order can be canceled) Pink

Looks good if you want on grid too.. and price good too.. I just completed my 2 x Growatt SPF5000ES order with WIFI and Thailand Special Line delivery for 54k B . So now just wait for the delivery. And hope for the best. Pink

Yes. im tempted... im back and forward now on this Growatt deal and the Mpp Max 11kw. I guess its quite a few more Growatt here in Thailand.. So maybe future service and parts easier? Pink

I posted "Thailand Special Line" to the seller today and got a offer back: 2 x GROWAT SPF5000ES $595 EACH Shipping cost:236USD ship by Thailand Special Line including custom declearance and tax. Pink

What i see from the video he eliminated the Inverters ac inn fully so the ats used direct grid when no solar and no battery. I wanted to switch grid between inverter AC Inn and Main breaker box. Then when grid goes to main breaker box, inverter AC Out must close. Pink

That's why i was looking for a switch solution who close inverter ac out in same time as grid power switched. A remember solution for sure i will not get. Pink
