Sorry I couldn't get back to you on Friday. Were you able to switch it back?

Yes sir. I too was delayed in getting back out to the property. I finally made it out and changed the settings. It looks very, very good, especially since i took it all the way down to auto shutoff.
Thanks again.

My system was placed in lead acid for 4 days now, yet me batteries still haven’t calibrated. This morning, keep in mind I have 5 batteries, they were at 10,28,27,29,10. Not sure why but it’s frustrating that neither in lithium or in lead acid, will they be close on %.

@minidude Good evening.
Yes, they will level out. It will take a lot longer than you/I think is necessary but it does work; it is just a huge PIA.
Hang in there and let me know if you are still having the issue in 3/4 weeks. When I had just one battery, it took almost 3 weeks to come "close enough" for me to switch back. When I added the second battery I had to do it again, this time it took another two weeks after switch back for the two batteries to come within 1%. What was really strange was that when the third battery was added; I did not need to switch at all. I did make sure they were all over 60% before adding the third; however I'm not convinced that had any bearing on the situation.
BTW the manual says that they should all have an SOC above a certain level (I don't remember what it is) but I'm pretty sure your posted SOC's are way too low. Try getting each above 50% before joining to the rest. I suspect it will go quicker if you do them one at a time rather than as a group of 5.
Hope that helps settle your nerves.
Good Luck!

I have a similar condition with my few batteries SOC being different. I switched to Lithium battery- Volt charge and discharge control . SOC is still different , but for me voltage is all that really matters.

@jckemp3 some guy said that he has it on lithium but set to go off voltage. Weird thing is mine was set to lithium and 2 batteries went down to 8% and the other were around 28%. But the system never switched to grid power in order to charge the batteries. Software is so wishy washy. One of my inverters had an over temp alert twice in 3 days. Coincidentally around 2pm on both days. That’s a whole Other issue.

@minidude if you are using Volt for discharge control , it ignores SOC. If you are using SOC then it combines the 2 SOC, then divides the 2 . So it would have used 18% as the SOC value in your scenario, not sure what your cutoff is set at.
I think of the 2 as one bigger battery .

@jckemp3 I’m using VDC. The cut off is set to 50. But for some reason, due to the fact that it takes the average VDC, my batteries go really low. Today it charges 89 out of 96kwh of the capacity that I have. That’s putting the battery it a really low state in my opinion. What I don’t like is that float is set to 57.4, but once the master battery gets close to full, it throttles the rest of the batteries charge capability. I keep asking them why it does that. Everything should be able to communicate and send charge where it needs it.

Luckily I have plenty of solar to charge them quickly. They were set to 57vcd so that it would help them even out. Ended up over heating the inverter. Figure I’ll just leave it in lead acid the whole time since it focuses on the VDC.
