Remember that CAN bus wires are very prone to EMC/EMI from anything. Especially at higher baud rates. So have them shielded and twisted according to spec. Many uses patch/ethernet cables (shielded of cause), which is quite ok in many cases
@gelisob10 місяців тому
recommended distance from HW cables to avoid problems? and an easy shielding option?
@typxxilps9 місяців тому
@@gelisob modbus has some recommendations which were not that true cause growatt said 15 m, but in reality some have already achieved 125 m and up to 800 m should be possible. Not sure about Can Bus, but it depends on your configuration cause usually batteries run can bus for the car and inverters tend to use modbus , even though Growatt offers CAN BUS too, but a different dialect.

Victron support is not difficult using can bus. Reconfiguring a 400V pack down to 65V can be a little tricky though.

Would be great to see how your approach would work with the new Goodwe ET 25KW - 30KW Hybrid high voltage inverters as they have the capability to have two batteries connected via separate connections. With your interface, do you think it could handle a single Tesla model 3 battery connected across both inverter battery connections (simulating a pair of separately connected HVM11's?) I'm guessing the Tesla pack could handle the power output of 2 x HVM11's?

Dala, you are a real battery/EV wizzard, looking up to your projects. I have one question concerning the charging of the leaf battery. Is there a lower limit in charge below which you risk to reduce it's lifetime? The solar system will often deliver very little power... I am using openWB wallbox to charge my leaf on AC depending on solar production and I've set the minimum power to 1.4 kW. Beside the first question, are you aware on any low limit on AC charge for the leaf?
@DalasEVRepair6 місяців тому
No limits, the battery itself reports what it can handle, and the solar inverter acts accordingly!
@arkadynemanov16073 місяці тому
And again - thank you for this work!!! It's looks not so complicated for people without technical background. Is it possible with LILYGO to set specific time for charging battery from grid? In my region we have very short daylight hours (4-5) and a lot of clouds. And every night electricity from grid is very cheap, and afternoon hours very expensive. Difference can be up to 1 euro per kWh.
