I have been working through a number of threads to find a solution to the draining of Freedom Won battery prior to being fully charged by PV, where loads in excess of PV supply is sourced from battery (and not grid).
My system setup as follows:
MultiPlus II 48/5000
Victron MPPT 150/85 Te VE-Can
Cerbo GX
FreedomWon 10/8 (200Ah)
Lynx Power In
3.2kWp PV (3x3)
I have set battery SoC to 60% with an aim to use 40% during night to feed critical loads. I have noticed two issues though:
- The battery supplies power to both critical and non-critical loads, which causes it to drain too fast.
- During the day while battery is charging via PV, it keeps on using battery power for loads prior to being fully charged. This slows down charging and often does not reach 100% at end of day.
I suspect this is an ESS setting that I am missing. Any advice?
Thanks
