I have 2 SKyla IP-65 70A chargers connected in a pair and are having a problem similar to this thread “Skylla IP44/65 Charger Storage Mode Firmware Bug”.
They are both configured as battery type 7 and I have the “watch” setting turned to off and have the latest firmware. I‘m on a boat using a genset to power the chargers.
#1 device runs perfectly at 14.2 Volts and 70 amps in bulk mode. The #2 device usually but not always runs at 13.5 volts and 25 amps in bulk mode. I watch them every time I start charging and #2 starts in degraded mode better than 85-90% of the time.
I’ve tried the following to isolate the issue with no success:
-running both in isolated mode, not bus connected to each other or my cerbo
- turn the #1 charger off
-doing hard reset back to manufacturer defaults and then changing the charge profile.
-it even tried #2 on other profiles and it still mostly starts in degraded mode.
My dealer has been helpful but doesn’t think I have enough evidence to submit a warranty claim. Anyone else seen this issue or have others things I can try?
thanks
