What software is that? Does it work with the Axpert or the 702?

Hi Valken, I do have one left.

Thanks for all the advise and help, really Appreciate it , I will be going 50mm2 with lugs all round! Will get it done and over. From pole to pole will be 170mm long and batter to inverter will not be more then 1M long. I have Traction plugs and 80Amp fuses on both neg and pos poles between the batteries and inverter. Took some reading today on both 24 and 48 at the same time. What you guys think? 24v is 33.3Amp (This Inverter is 10m away from the panels) 48V is 18.2Amp (This inverter is 38m away from the panels)

TTT what You magazine? Sweet will do that. I still have alot to do..... just time is never on my side at the moment. Cables size ok at 16mm? Will get lugs today. Cheers

Forgot to add, gas geyser and stove and oven, ever light is LED

Appreciate all the help I can get, thanks

Thanks guy's, I will be moving it on Saturday

Oh hell, don't say that bud

Install 1. 48v 5Kva 6 by 315watts panels and 8 by J305 6v 310amp. 2 by 80amp fuses. BMV 702 Install 2. 24v 3Kva 5 by 315watts panels and 8 by J305 6v (2 banks) 610amp 4 by 80amp fuses. BMV 702 Still have a lot of cleaning up to do, so please excuse the dirt Hoping to have both to 48v 5Kva and 10 by 315watt pants each by the end of the year. Very new to solar and only started playing around 6 months ago, before that I knew nothing! Hope all is in order. Been running very well so far. Just not sure if my panels are in the right place! I am a more of a try and error person.........

Sweet, thanks will do that.

I was going to keep it as spare or use it on another project, but it has been laying at work.... long story short I have a very good mate who can get them at a very good price. I dont need to sell it, but it is getting dusty....... I dont even know what I got it for, what is the price of them now?

Hi TTT, it has been sold. But I do have a 702, if you would like to make a offer on that one. Still in the box never taken out.

Hi All, Where is everyone from? Would be great to meet up and chat. I have seen more and more instalments done in my area and would love to swop idea around. I am in Waterfall Durban.

Thank you, R1000 onco I managed to get the 702 cheap and did not use the 700

I have a sealed BMV -700 if any want to buy it. Thanks.

Hi Mark, Yes it is. Are you close to 54 Worraker St, Newton Park? Thanks, Ryne

Ok cool, I seem to be understanding it a bit more now,thank you guy's. but what is confusing me is, currently I am putting in 60 odd volts from the panels and 30 odd Amp per hour at peak. Now if I changed the Axpert to 48v and batteries whould I still get 30 odd amps per hour at peak from the panels?

Thanks Chris, ok that is making more sense. If I had to go 48V my batteries would charge quicker as I would have only used 60 odd Amp compared to 120 odd Amp to put back? Is this correct? If so I could maybe add more load on the system?

I have a spare BMV702 still sealed if anyone is looking to buy one.

Hi All, Need some advise please, Very new at this so please bear with me here..... Current set up 8 by J305 6V in 2 strings of 24v 620AH 3KVA 24v Axpert Plus 4 by 300watt panels, adding 2 more in the next few days.Panels in strings of 2 2 by Victron energy Bmv702 Max Amps pulled by the next morning is 125AH of the 620AH I have. The washing machine, tumble dryer and dish washer still on Eskom. If i just chanced the Axpert to 48v, my battiery bank would drop to 310AH, would my Amp drop in half to 62,5AMP in the morning? or am looking at this all wrong. Could I keep my panels connect the same way as i am only getting around 60V. Would going 48V benefit me in any way??? cheer
