Hi All, 

I have an Axpert King 5 kW with a very tired set of agm batteries. I want to get a lithium battery that will communicate with the inverter. The manual and settings refer to pylontech. Does anybody have experience with what batteries are compatible (i.e. communicate properly) with the King. 

Main firmware version: 71.90

My options are Hubble AM2, Greenrich UP5000, Kodak BL5, Pylontech US3000, Pylontech UP5000

Any advice would be most welcome. 

Thanks - Rob

Dyness battery modules communicate with Voltronic Power inverters with removable displays including Axpert King

BX51100 and B51100 5.12Vdc 51.2kWh 100Ah are two such examples.

See excerpt below from the Dyness B51100 User Manual on how to set the battery DIP switch to communicate with Voltronic inverters.

Thanks for info. 

 

All the Pylontech batteries are compatible with the King.

I notice that Segen Solar have put out a notice saying that the newer Pylontech batteries do not currently work with the Kodak inverters (Axpert) and need to be treated as dumb batteries.

Good afternoon Rob

 

I have the Kodak Max 7.2Kw units which are communicating with the Greenrich 3.686KWh LiFePO4 batteries via the RS485 cable which I received with the inverters. The cable pinout for the Kodak inverter are Pin 3: RS485B, Pin 4: RS485A on the inverter and Pin 7: RS485A, Pin 8: RS485B on the battery.

Have a look at, Gustav du Plessis puts it all in this post

 

One of the reasons why I chose the Greenrich batteries are that you can connect your own battery cables to the battery and are therefore not bound to a specific cable like those used with the Pylontech and those type of batteries.

 

Kind Regards
