    @jasonbroom7147 Před dnem

    It was funny listening to your dog, saying "Yes, yes! Turn on the A/C!" :) These mini batteries are pretty cool. Their size and weight are very compelling for specific use cases, plus their costs keep coming down, even when inflation is making a lot of other things more expensive. I've got that same Renogy shunt/monitor and it's been very solid for me, as well.

    You never start a timer and let us know how long the Air Conditioner ran from 100-0%. That data along with the specs of the window AC is important info.

    • @BradCagle
      @BradCagle Před dnem

      I can give you an approximation. The AC was on medium, and running around 900W. The two batteries combined have a capacity of 2560Wh, so the math is 2560 / 900 = 2.84 hours. Now this AC can run around 300w on low, also depending on the ambient temp. So possibly 8+ hours on low. There's a link in the description for the AC. Thanks

    Just installed one on my boat for everything jackplate, trim, 2 1500w amps, gps, accessories, etc..., heavy agm for starting. Ordered a lithium isolator, but may try running this setup for now until that comes. I do have both batteries isolated with battery switches. Motor will charge the agm. Thinking when motor is running I can connect both through the battery switches. Any thoughts or concerns? Or I should just charge the lithium at home with dc lithium charger?

  • @Texelectric
    @Texelectric Před 6 dny

    Would this setup be somewhat viable on an ASIC rig? I looked into their power supply and it only needs about 12.3VDC output with similar 6-pin connections. Accounting for the increase load requirements with a larger solar panel array (I have 54 panels at 345watts currently) and a larger battery bank (260AH with more batteries on the way), I think it could be viable. From the PSU output on an Antiminer S19, its rated output is 233A at 12.3V for all 3 boards. I plan to try this out with some used S19's from eBay so if it's a complete crapshoot, I'm only out about $500 for the machine.

    I’m really glad you tested two in 48v configuration. As battery density continues to increase, and they can get more amp hours out of the same size prismatic cell, this also allows them to decrease the cell size and maintain the same number of amp hours.

    Says something about the relentless advance of LiFePO4 cells when they are clearly smaller and lighter than their predecessors for the same capacity. I was thinking about the cold temperature cut off test - the aerosol spray can you use will get the probe way below 0oC, but really it should stop charging at or near 0oC. I wonder if you could use water and ice + a little salt to create a temperature at or slightly below 0oC? Maybe the water/ice in a rubber glove so you can rest one of the fingers on the probe?

      @BradCagle Před 8 dny

      Isn't it Awesome! Seems like I have noticed LiFePO4 cells getting lighter, and smaller overall. Yeah on low temp test, I've been thinking about it too. I'm thinking of building a precise tester using a peltier element with a arduino microcontroller that can PWM the power to the peltier element. It would use feedback from a temp probe to adjust the PWM signal thus hopefully holding a solid temp. Or I might just use a bench PSU to manually vary the power to the peltier and watch a thermal probe connected to my fluke. I have no free time so might be the manual route LOL :) Thanks, Ben!

      @@BenMitro Well just thought of another issue. So I was thinking I would just use some putty to press the battery temp sensor against the peltier but that would leave one side of the temp sensor exposed to room temperature, or in my case 95f+ sunroom. I suspect this would create a temperature gradient across the sensor. I think I would need to sandwich the sensor between two peltiers.

      @@BradCagle Or drill a suitable hole in a piece of aluminium plate that the peltier is attached to. Easy enough to insulate the rest of the aluminium I imagine.
