MeDat got a reaction from Youda in Pylontech us5000 balances every dayYou can be sure what voltage your battery starts balancing at by using a terminal software like putty OR the console window in Batteryview (with Admin login of course) and type "config" at the command line.
This will show all the current settings in your battery.
BTW what version of Batteryview do you have?

MeDat got a reaction from Youda in Youda's off-grid LABLots of thanks to you Youda and everyone else for the wealth of knowledge found in this thread.
I wish I had this info when I started my journey with the pylontech batteries.
Still not where I would like to be yet, but i want to gather all the relevant details before I ask for help.
The info so far has taken me several steps closer, thanks again.
By the way the goal is H48050s in parallel not series.

MeDat got a reaction from onobeka in Pylontech us5000 balances every dayWe are making progress!!!
This is a wealth of info to use to get better acquainted with your battery...
I think there is no need to jump to CODE RED at this time.
Give me some time to look over the info and share what your battery is doing and hopefully why.

MeDat got a reaction from onobeka in Pylontech us5000 balances every dayI want to help you have better control over your battery so that it does what you want it to do.
This starts by knowing what your battery settings are.
For example, my battery balance start voltage is 3.36V per cell which is too early for me. With a target of 3.5V per cell charge it started to discharge both the high cells and the low cells which made my 75mV delta V into 200mV in a matter of days. So I had to reduce my charge voltage closer to the balance voltage to correct this (which also took days). When delta V was 20mV I returned to the previous 3.5V charge per cell.
So lets get to know your battery...
config = battery settings
bat = battery status including which cell is in balance mode
This info will help to customize a fix for the battery
BTW nothing meaningful (re balancing) can happen in the flat part of the curve so it is ok to use your batteries at night.
