Harvesting the power of the sun
We have set up a new configuration to test the solar charging of LFP batteries. Two solar panels (217Wp each) are in a serial string to charge a 48V/90Ah battery pack made of 4 pcs of LP12V 90AH batteries.
During a sunny day in October, we are able to gain more than 2 kWh of energy from
Using solar chargers to harvest solar power
We are testing different solar chargers to see their performance with the LFP battery packs. Here is the summary of our tests:
- shows the initial charging of a completely empty 48V/20AH LFP battery pack. We were able to charge 25Ah of
Simple solar solution for off-grid applications
This isour demonstration panel for simple solar solutions based on the 12V LP batteries. Check with us if you need such solutions.
Testing Solar-charge controllers with LP batteries
Sample 1: STECA SOLARIX MPPT 2010
This is a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) solar charge controller. It works perfectly. It gets the maximal power from the solar panel. The ideal peak reached was 200W of power input from 217Wp sola
Using LiFeYPO4 for Solar Applications
With the life span of 3000+ cycles, with no memory effect and full support of deep discharge, the 12V LFP batteries are ideal to be used and station batteries for solar and backup applications.
