  1. Hi @r1biker, no, sorry - the BMS was sold.
  2. Item: 12V 4S 120A BMS for LiFePo4, including battery balance leads. Age: July 2021 Price: R500 Payment Method Accepted: EFT/Cash Warranty: No Packaging: No Condition: Very good Location: Amanzimtoti, KZN Reason: No longer used - upgraded setup. Shipping: Yes, cost for buyer. Collection: Yes Link: Original link no longer available, but similar to this: https://www.amazon.com/DALY-LiFePO4-Protection-Balance-Battery/dp/B08MW4H68L?th=1
  3. Batteries all sold to @addisonk. The BMS is still available however.
  4. Hi @addisonk, I have 4 100Ah cells also bought from LBSA in 2021 which are no longer being used. I suspect that one of them has failed however, as the voltages on the 3 cells are between 3.1 and 3.2V, however the one is at 2.55V (BMS cut-off voltage). It might have just been due to a bad connection on the battery, but I have no way of charging the one individual cell up again. They had only been cycled approximately 30 times in my DIY setup (no longer being used). I am willing to sell the 3 for R600 each, and you can have the fourth one for free (it might be recoverable if you have something to charge it up/balance with the rest) - are you interested? I am based in Durban. I also have a 4S 12V 120A BMS, if anyone else is interested?
  5. No solar yet, but I am keen to connect panels eventually! Please let me know if you have any luck setting any panels up with it.. Thank you for the link - I am keen to see how you go with changing the fans!
  6. Yes, the fans sound like jet engines just about to take off.. even under no load or charge. I had to put this whole setup in the garage because of the noise. I didn't top balance the cells, but they all came at the exact same voltage (bought them from lithiumbatteriessa.co.za). Where did you get yours from?
