RE: 6000xp bug in charge controller setpoint voltages with open loop

Sun came out today and charged system to full.... verifying that the charge curve is NOT doing what I programmed. The 6000xp is holding end-of-charge ...

RE: 6000xp bug in charge controller setpoint voltages with open loop

these settings did not work by the way.... charge behavior showed that system ignored the EQ setting, and just stuck to a CV=54.5..... which results i...

@jarrett , thanks for followup... if and when a patch is ready to test, I am more than willing to be a beta tester and report results. The goal of cou...

RE: 6000 XP set solar charge limit?

@jpangburn ... not pointless to be concerned, but better to be educated. using LFP in cars is far different than solar; mostly because of the charge c...

RE: 6000 XP set solar charge limit?

@jared , you gave an incorrect and incomplete response.... a. LFP charge curve *should* bulk charge to 56.2, and float at 53.5-54.0 for best results...
