HubbleLithium Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hi Community, We've had numerous requests from clients to send some photos of the new Wallmount to see what it looks like installed.

Kill_switch Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 (edited) I have to ask, I took delivery of my two batteries (Am-2) recently and my first thought was why have the terminals at the bottom? Is there a design reason to not have them on top for shorter cable lengths when mounted below the inverter( this seems to be the most common mounting option)? I am prob going to mount them upside-down.... *Edit There should also be better natural heat dissipation if the vent holes are on top. If you do consider it, flipping the interfaces would help too else its all upside down when mounted on the wall Edited February 9, 2021 by Kill_switch more info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HubbleLithium Posted February 9, 2021 Author Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hi Kill_switch, Good question. When we looked at the design with holes on top it created a problem for dust and particle, especially water incursion if there is a leak from a water pipe above the battery etc. The only heat being generated will be from the BMS charger which is situated at the bottom when charging at a high rate, however the temperature of this is neglegable. The BMS has temperature control and shutdown if the temperature gets too high or will start throttling the charge/discahrge back if above 65 degrees temperature. The internal prismatic cells we use generate almost no heat due to them being grade A cells. Boerseun, SYC and uDuWaR 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isetech Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 SABS 10142-1 2017 edition 2 (there are new regulations ... just havent got around to paying another R1000) 6.6.1.7 C) A DB shall not be mounted within a radius of 1 m from a water tap or valve (in the same room) unless the enclosure provides a degree of protection of at least IP44. That DB looks closer than 1 m ... however the DB looks like it has an IP rating of at least IP44 ... so its all good. That looks like OBO trunking from Oline ?

Durbanguy Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 I like the wall monting of the batteries very neat, that Phocos Inverters have some good reviews overseas pitty they only have 2 year warranties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swazz99jhb Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Received mine today. The thing weighs a k@k load Do I mount it with rawl bolts? What size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dani Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 My hubble is installed and operating great. I've set the discharge and charge to max 50a will that extend the lifespan? Also what's the recommended % I should let the battery drop to on a daily basis? It's currently set at 35%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iiceman Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 i have set my hubble's drop to 25%, with the charge and discharge rate controlled my the bms... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dani Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Thx Liceman. I cant find any documentation online with recommendation and results from different discharge rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saliegh Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Lots of questions, and very few answers here. Is that really due to lack of data? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moffat Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Could @HubbleLithium at least dedicate someone on a bi-weekly or monthly basis to give answers on this forum thread, I think this would help. I'm looking at getting a HUBBLE AM-4 Battery 25.5v 2.6KWh to replace my current Sealed Gel batteries. On my Chinese MMPsolar inverter I can set four parameters (Maximum charge, Minimum charge, High voltage upper limit, Low voltage cut-off. All else am unable to set as this inverter cannot communicate with the battery. How does this affect my warranty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past, @HubbleLithium have indicated that they prefer customers to log support calls using their official support channel. They feel that they can manage the support workload and quality far better that way. In a way I don't blame them, no battery manufacturer that I know of provides support via social media. To their credit, they have responded on this forum a few times already when there was an escalation. Leshen 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do consider it, flipping the interfaces would help too else its all upside down when mounted on the wall Did a little experiment with mine just to see if it makes a difference in temperatures. Mounted a typical 120mm computer case fan on the bottom left vent hole. I stuck it down with some double sided tape on the battery chassis so that it extracts from the battery enclosure. Had an unused 12V power supply which powers the fan at it's rated 12V Although the average cell temp only dropped by about 0,3deg C, the highest cell temp went down by a full degree C. So now the reported high, average and low cell temps are all pretty much the same temp. So that makes a difference already. My inverter is in the garage so the extra fan noise doesn't bother.

Kawaman Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Hi, Some of you have been asking about Battery settings wrt Hubble Batteries. Go to https://www.hubblelithium.co.za/sunsynk then at the top click on "Inverter Guides" choose your Inverter and see the correct Battery Settings. Hope this helps newbies Energy-Jason 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Jordaan Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Hi I have currently 2 Hubble AM2 5.5kwh batteries connected to my Kodak 7.5 KWH Inverter. Can I string in a Hubble AM10 in with the other 2 Hubble Batteries ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billythekid Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 hello all, some assistance here- what is the process to add a second AM2, after a year -to an existing Voltronic system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
