Very sad indeed. Thanks for your replies. What battery brand would you normally consider?

Hi, Shadders. Thanks for responding. I have two pairs of cables connected, one on the top of the chain and one at the bottom. My inverter is only set to a max current draw of 120 amps for charging and discharging. From what a gathered the suppliers are not keen on doing warranty claims, but will give it my best shot for what it's worth. I'll also reach out to Pylon for assistance. I never thought it would be necessary to use custom settings, due to the default Pylon setting. Great info from the link btw. If I understand you correctly, then this was inevitable no matter how conservative it was setup. Before I purchased The Pylons, I have researched quite a bit and only saw good things about them. What is your preferred battery of choice?

Hi, Everyone. I am based in South-Africa, Limpopo, Tzaneen. I have a Deye 8kw inverter connected to 8x Pylontech US3000 batteries, rack mounted. I noticed that one of the batteries seemed skew in the rack, found it is due to swelling. Further inspection revealed that 6 (3 badly and 3 starting) of the 8 batteries are swollen. Battery manufacturing date is 2020-08-26, installed January 2021 by myself. Battery setup/settings are default pylon settings on the inverter, custom settings not possible, at least not from what I can see. Charge and discharge current settings on the inverter are well under the nominal current. Advice needed please. Kind regard Louis
