You can daisy chain the components to get them to work with the Bluetooth module.
I have dcc50s -> 100aH battery 1 -> 100aH battery 2 -> bt-2
From the app I can see dcc50s and both batteries.
Although my first one did die on me I run the Renogy DCC50S, latest version and this will take a solar input, the starter battery input and according to the manual will divert charge back to the starter when that battery gets below a certain level.
That means one unit potentially takes the...
...30A double pole switch, think cooker switch here without a neon indicator and that's what I've got.
Turning off the solar means the Renogy DCC50S sends up to 50A to the leisure battery from the alternator via the starter battery and turning the solar back on calms things down by reducing the...
Dell if I cant repair my CTEK have you any experience of the 50A Renogy IP67 battery charger with MPPT - Renogy are doing them for 259.99 and they look a bit smaller than the DCC50S and I need to get everything under my drivers seat.
That’s interesting. In my manual it doesn’t have that warning, and it says
“4.3 If the service battery type is set to lithium, the DCC50S will stop charging the service battery when its temperature is lower than 1C, and recover to charge when it's higher than 3C.”
Exactly what I've just fitted. Had renogy for a few years now and can't fault it. And the fact you get the BT and M1 for a quid is a no brainer. Good app too.
I'm just getting around to starting the install (just the lifepo4 battery, Renogy DCC50S and Renogy 1000W inverter at the moment) and have found the 100A relay and 80A fuse next to the leisure battery. The wiring does indeed look as you have detailed above (couple of pics below). Am I on the...
From personal experience get the Renogy DCC50S and you've got up to 50A charging from the alternator or more normally the input is split 50/50 with the alternator and solar input.
You can get an external mains EHU charger, I've got the 30A Victron but again from personal experience the only time...
...want to consider the new Orion XS (if you can wait until March) as it's smaller, runs cooler and can change up to 50a.
Comparing the 2, the DCC50s limits the DC-DC to 25a if there's anything coming in on solar, so if you end up going for a big capacity lithium battery you might want to go...
...it up to spec for off grid solar etc as currently it only has a poxy 75ah lead battery. I've bought a 150ah lifepo4 along with the Renogy DCC50S for decent DC charging. Due to the leisure battery location I will be running 5 metres of 35mm pos/neg cables from the starter location to the...
Ordered another Renogy DCC50S as this one appears to have karked.:cry:
Solar, alternator and ignition trigger all there but no lights for their inputs just the blue led for lithium and slow flashing red led.
Too thick to get the Renogy app installed let alone operate via the Bluetooth module but...
Cheers for the feedback Frosty,
Right you are, cavalier yes...there is no more 80A fuse so current to MPPT charger is open to whatever it can handle (max 50A i'm assuming...open to further commentry)...I reckon 60A inline fuse for now and as you suggest, throttle the SB charging parameters back...
I'll be honest using the Renogy DCC50S as the battery to battery charger with the additional panels on the roof I've only used my Victron IP22 30/12 once to put the initial charge into the seat battery.
I reckon doing the same thing after junking the Durite will see you in the same boat as the...
Can anyone explain why the DCC50S is charging my LiFePO4 battery at 14.4 volts, all day, when it's already fully charged.
It starts charging in Bulk mode when the sun comes up then, mid-morning, switches to Boost mode and charges for the rest of the day at 14.4v (0.5 - 0.7A)
The van's just...
