This battery was only 170 dollar I figured it was worth testing to see if it’s any good, so far so good. I’m going to use it for some projects and see how it holds up. Amazon link to battery amzn.to/3yjzSdg Amazon link to the Shunt/ Power Meter amzn.to/4btIk8H #solar #battery #lifepo4battery
CHEAP PORTABLE INVERTER GENERATOR
มุมมอง 65721 วันที่ผ่านมา
Today we test out the predator 1400 watt generator. We test a few loads and examine the waveform using an occiloscope. This generator is awesome due to its small size and light weight, perfect for camping, or just taking on the go, personally I will be using it to charge my off grid solar power system when the sun isn’t out.

มุมมอง 166K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
After having some success with the smaller 196cc Chinese diesel I decided I wanted to try out the bigger one you can buy, it cost about 450 dollars, displaces 418cc and makes 10hp and 1,000 ft lbs of torque, no clue what we’re going to do with this yet so stay tuned! Open to ideas from y’all. #diesel #diy #engine Amazon Link to engine amzn.to/3vATI2Q
Chinese Diesel Engine charging 48 volt batteries

มุมมอง 163K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is an Amazon 196cc Chinese diesel engine, spinning a 6 phase hub motor from a scooter as a generator, I finally mounted the hub motor to the engine stand, got a belt that fits, and was able to do a test run. The setup worked better than expected. Now that I know it works I will be cleaning everything up then will test different fuel types, run time and things like that. Enjoy Amazon link t...

How To Make A 48 Volt Battery At Home (Easy)
I want to know if it starts with the pull cord,
That's a joke given the cost of all that equipment.
At 75 minutes your fully charged batteries will be at 50%. After that, you throw them away.
Damn how many solar panels and batteries just to run one thing
This is why having baseload battery power in humid environments will never work, unless they come up with a super economical ac compressor that can consume 6 amps, not 60. Not just that, air-conditioning an entire area for such a small amount of human space physically is such a waste, invest in battery powered cool suits.
The 6000XP is no upgrade. It's a high frequency, transformerless inverter that offers a poorer surge capacity and a shorter life expectancy than low frequency transformer based inverters. In addition its not even legal to install in your home as an ESS system in the U.S. because it lacks UL9540 certification.
It's a lot of money for nothing.
Absolutely Amazing . 1 hour of air conditioning, is a life saver . The rest of the neighborhood will perish from heat stroke but you will live 1 hour longer .
I bought one, was dropped in shipping, cracked the crankcase beyond repair. Did get a refund!
Sorry to hear! At least you got your money back
But what do you do when you need 240v
They make 240 volt inverters
arent there minisplits that run on HvDc? could be wrong but i sware i seen some that ran on 96 and 48v
Not entirely sure, they do make a minisplit that can run directly on solar panels
Portable mini split 🤣
So you have just over 1 hour of AC.
Better than zero hours of ac!
@@Mikebuildss😂😂😂 how much did batteries 😅 cost ya & material for your 1t2 hour fail 🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@Mikebuildss Very true!
Impressive and functional, but it looks like youre pressed for room. I think you should get all this out of your living area to be safer. Been there.
12V batts are AGM or LifePO4? DC inverter compressor? BTU and SEER? Thank you !
Lifepo4, yes inverter drive, 12k btu, 20 seer
And how long will the battery last , half hour?
Yah that's about what I would guess.
Depends on the runtime, 2x 12V 100Ah batteries will have ~1200Wh useable (can usually only use half of the capacity on lead batteries), at around 800w it would be 1.5h of continuous operation. Duty cycle will depend on the temperatures and insulation.
Look at the draw. 67A. 200/67=3 hours but that’s the full power so possibly much more if it cycles on and off
@@ericklein5097 those are lead batteries, which means only 50% of the nominal capacity can be used.
@@bastiannenke9613those are lifepo4 probable either group 24 (mini) or group 31 (usual for 100amp hour lifepo4 batteries).
how quiet was it. the 1000 is supposedly noisey
Just hire an electrician in install a proper Outlet
Charging batteries emits hydrogen gas
67 amp? How many watts?
12 volts x 67 amps = 1072 watts
@@samthekashman to bad they cant be ran for long.
That's cool, I guess. But, why?
Why not
As far as a pulley for the motor goes, you might be able to find an old dryer, and use the intermediate drive pulley for the drum for the generator side. Some where spoked, some were sheet metal. It's worth a look at least,. because if all you're getting out of that 10 HP motor is 1kW, that's only a little over 2 HP worth of mechanical load. You're losing power somewhere and I suspect the belt drive is it. Or the motor doesn't have enough field to generator power at the RPM range you're running at.
That’s a good idea, my biggest issue is belt tension is bad and it slips a ton, I’m in the process of making a way to tension it then will make another video
So electrically, you're pulling down 1 HP, on the mechanical side, if you could figure out the torque at the speed you're running, I think you're going to find you're pretty close to 2 Hp. So either your motor/generator is saturating, or your belt is slipping enough that you aren't getting good power transfer. You could look at it with a scope and measure the output frequency on the AC side into one of your rectifiers to figure out your RPM and the wave shape would tell you if you're saturated or not.
U just used my little lincoln handy mig with my little firman w2000i generator. Used .030 and .035 flux core and worked great. No surge and i also used my chopsaw
Great content the cats were a bonus!❤
Like a kid on Christmas morning :)
I built a bank using SLA's 3 years ago. Was waiting till the LiFePO4 came down to what the SLA's were. Now is that time. 2024 will be the year of the LiFePO4.
Yes sir and they’re only getting cheaper and better! Yes your lead batteries then scrap them for some money toward your lithium. Good luck!
These are advertised as "precharged" on Amazon
Yes the unit itself is pre charged, but the line set and evaporator are not, they need to be connected, then vacuumed down, after that you release the gas from the unit
Great videos on this product, I watch pretty much all of them. I never caught the fan noise level on this product. how is it, noise wise?
Loud, it’s dependent on internal temperature. My personal experience with most cheaper inverters is the fans do not ramp on, it’s on or off. They move a lot of air so fairly noisy. But other then that seems to work good
The chargeverter is just a old server power supply in a box with pretty wires. That company found a genius business model.
You are in Texas? Glad you don’t seem to be affected by the storms. Knock wood!
Hah yes we were lucky!
Wish I didn't live so far North... To my south is a bunch of 60 foot pine trees on the neighbor's property. Love this content though...
Nice. Would you happen to know how many ft. pounds of torque?
At least 15-20
Do you have a link to that shunt your using?
Added link in description
@@Mikebuildss Thank you!
Great video Mike! Just curious after 10 months if you are still happy with your Daly BMS ... would you still recommend it? Thanks!
Yes it’s used almost everyday have not had any issues!
Verified and tested low temp charge shut off, or nah?
I did not, I may try that I still have the battery opened up
I does not have low temp charging capability.
U should make this a mud motor for a boat
There’s no mud around here
@@Mikebuildss well i don’t use the mud lol thats just what it’s called like a longtail boat motor
@@Toobluejzs147 ahh I figured that’s what you meant, I think It would work well, could probably turn a very aggressive prop with all the torque it has.
1 Hp will produce 746 watts ! 10 x 746 =7,460 watts !!!
At full chooch!
I understand wiring for these things is pretty straight forward, but include that next time.
Will do man I’ll do my best to help!
Wiring in the unit would be very helpful
I was afraid people would get mad because I’m not a certified electrician
Remove the pull rope assembly, use a socket and drill to start the engine.
You got lucky lol I did the same test and a teardown and it not good they are using b cells and I got 89 on a full charge. And dealing with customer service and OOF. I had to confirm my address 3 times only to have issue with pick up from Fed ex. Want to guess the issue the Label was never sent to return it. So I am glad you got a good one out of the box.
Sorry to hear that man, yea I’ve heard it’s hit or miss, I have low expectations going into these cheap batteries. As long as I get a few years of use out of it I’m happy
Dudes at work playing with a surron… life is good lol
Facts stay humble and appreciate all good things
nice job.
Thank you much!
Put on a Log Splitter
I don’t have any logs to split!
Oh yeah you getting a sunburn put pants on people full ppe or atleast leather / cloth the UV light is fucking no joke
Yea for real I learned real quick!
Can this be charged safely from a truck 12 volt alternator without any special charge controllers?
No because the battery will pull so many amps it will damage the alternator. They make dc to dc charge controllers that will work in that situation
No all LifePo4's need a DC to DC converter. Alternator will burn up
@@bigtrucklittlerv7969 any recommendations

Their prices go up because of all the "Get rich quick" middlemen! So sick of lazy/greedy people standing between products and consumers just to make an easy buck, they totally detract from what Amazon has been built on.
KYD is a prime example.
Your bitch is vapid and annoying af
