Off Grid Basement
United States
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 3 ม.ค. 2022
I've wanted an alternative power source ever since my basement flooded when the power to my sump pump turned off due to a power outage. It is very exciting and a great learning experience to be able to build my own power plant in my basement. I believe everyone can do this and I would like to show people what I know. Mostly through trial and error!
I will explain everything I do with the upgrades to my 24v off grid system and will show you step by step and how I accomplished it.

NuWave induction cooktop VS Electric Hot plate. Compare cost to efficiency. Which is better?
Battery always full when power c9meing in
How is it functioning so far now 2mos passed?
I bought two of those a few months ago. They've worked great for me. They do drain slightly with the Bluetooth being on constantly.
your fresh air return should be getting the colder air from outside which should improve the performance of the heater imho
Does this have an automatic transfer switch? Looking for a good 2k watt inverter for my camper that can automatically switch off when I plug into shore power.
Desulfication on a LFP?????
Connect the negative first, always in everything, even a meter
I have this same battery happy to know it has low temperature protection it didn't say anything in the paperwork. Thank you.
Another informative video thank you. FYI those bolts are brass not copper. I don't think a copper bolts would last very long. Keep them coming sir. And this and the Elfhub look exactly like the Pupvwmhb batteries I have been buying.
This is some very exciting stuff to see, im just about to get a 24v system built using 4 290AH smart Chins Lifepo4 12v batteries with Bluetooth, and heaters. Going with all Victron components except an Inverter for the time being, and it's nice to see basically my same build incorporating a balancer, and shunt ect, now I am curious, though do you have any for of battery temperature sensor? Like a Battery Smart Sense from Victron? I originally had got my Smart Shunt with the plan to use a temperature sensor on it, but after doing more digging, and realizing that the gray wire can be used for Voltage deviation, opposed to just a second battery system entirely, which im not using, or the temp sensor.. Knowing my main batteries are 12v themselves, the system keeping them balanced is a big thing, as well as being able to monitor it. So I'm looking into the Bluetooth temp/ smart sense by victron.
Nice work, my motorcycle lithium battery is dead. And the lithium charger show errir 0-1. I try this metod.
try the shop Smith when the battery is cool
EB3A can take a max of solar 200watts.
I have 2 fresh out of the box litime 100AH 12V smart batteries, I looked at them while waiting for the hasito battery charger. It arrived and to test drive the charger I put it on my dr preper lifpo with same basic info, the charger topped it off quick. I then attached the charger to the litime battery and get nothing, moved to other litime battery and once again..nothing. u think Chinese new year could be in progress, I've sent 3 messages and wait. I'm gonna try bumping one of them with the full charged DrPrepare battery
I am wondering if the bluetooth introduces a vampire drain. Great review, thanks!
You review the same class battery every time, you should go higher, like 200 or 300 amps!
As you say it seems to be identical to the previous battery you reviewed, with fantastic results. Once again, hopefully UK one day
Another good battery
Why are u on the floor
Say Bougerv three times fast.
Exactly the information and demonstration I was looking for. Great Job!
you could use it with only drinks like soda pop or beers or wine that would not be a health matter if that frigdge was used with what you tried. But not recommendable with food.
I would not take a chance with that technic specially with food. health is important. my experience i monitored my 20sq foot refrigirator freezer in the garage and it is a older model and the monitor showed after 24 hours the refrigirator freezer worked 8 hours out of the 24 hours. I plugged in my bluetti ac180 and added a 12,8v 100ah life po battery. worked well.
i have a pure sine wave 2,500watts invertor. i guess it will power my freezer but might eat up more ah than a 1500watt inveror?
I tested this same panel. Even with it on a good angle on a cloudless day, the best I could get was 67 watts. The amount of room you would need to set up multiples of this panel are pretty big. For me, I didn’t think they were worth it. Thanks for sharing your finding!
what size of fuse do you use?
What is the difference between the Lithium and Lifepo4 settings?
Does this charger charge 24v please?
Yes. This solar charge controller does 12v and 24v.
Thank you,been looking for some back up,if apsortion is on 14,4- 14-or 13,8 and flot goes in, 13,5 is the flot rekomended,so wy go higher then 13,7-8,dont see a big differents ,like you,plus many people agre charge to 14,40 and down to 10%, make a differents in circles from 2000 - 6000, what I see you can use the batteri betwen 13,5 - 12,9 if you vont 6000 circ, of 100 amp batteri,you will have no more the 60 amp to use,we are fooled of the batteri industri,so to pay 1000$ for a 100amp batteri,is not much better the a good gel batteri, And you can keep your 230v charger plus the generator working,BUT, now we can buy kina litium witch I have 460amp litium 150 BMS, bloutouh, for1000$ to my door, the weight is of ofcourse a big plus !!😎
I believe the only reason to go higher than 13.8v is so the cells in the battery can balance properly.
the pot makes a huge difference with the induction cook top. you need someting that is magnetic that pot is aluminum.
It's actually an alumium pot with a stainless steel base. If it were all aluminum it wouldn't work at all.
Like your videos. Please do a video of programming the battery capacity meter PZEM -015. Btw what is your setup for the laptop to monitor your test. Great videos.Thanks
I can do that. Also, here is a link to the battery capacity tester I use: EBC‑ Battery Capacity Tester, ‑ Lithium Iron Battery Load Tester 5A 20A Discharge Electronic Load Meter (US Plug) amzn.to/3z5tNBV
Bought one a few months ago today I decided to look inside, and it's totally different from your I was shocked at the low quality design and components, i would recommend that anyone that owns one of these to take a look inside and compare it to yours and if its not the same don't leave it running unattended.
😳😳
That's crazy! They must of "upgraded" the version of the inverter. That's really no good.
yeap you're right. great mind think alike. when i first got into solar, i set my float at 14. and boy i was wrong. when it reach float voltage it quickly shot up to 15v and shut down my power inverter. my cheap PMW charge controller couldn't handle and repeatedly reset it self off and on due to the massive voltage spike. now i have mine set on 13.7 and it works fine. really i need a better charge controller. between 13.5 to 13.7 is a good number. anything over that will cook the batteries over time. unless im trying to balance the cells.
I'm glad to hear you got everything all figured out. Also, if you charge controller works, then there is no reason to get another! Thanks for the comment.
I just recieved 2 li times smart batteries with bluetooth, right out of box i connected charger to either of them, i get nothing. I tried connecting a tiny inverter thinking if mite kick battery on. I get nothing. Im wondering if using App is non negotiable. Id rather not use app if possible.
They are probably both "sleeping" You can use your car battery to jump them awake. Just connect them for a second or two.
Good review! It'll be great for my luch at work. I just ordered one.
Thanks for the comment! I hope you like it.
Does this unit comes with a built in mppt?
Yes it does.
Thank-You for this review. I recently purchased a Sourcepow and everything about that battery is identical to the Elfhub.
Good to know! Thanks for the comment.
I was torn between this one and the mini version. Minn Kota says my trolling motor needs a 50amp breaker or fuse. I asked Watt Cycle on one of their videos which one I need and they were very helpful explaining the differences and that led me to buy the mini w/bluetooth.
Glad they could help you choose the right one!
I bought one. Online it says it charges at 15 amp but in the book it came with it says a continuous charge of 20?
20A continuous charge rate is just fine. I believe the max continuous charge rate is 50A or 100A
Good review but a tear down, although destroys case, is always needed for a full review.
Im sure there is another video out there that does the teardown, check it out.
Comparing apples to oranges. What's the point?
It's all about the standby consumption of the inverter.
Great demonstration and explanation. I have been procrastinating about getting one of these for about a year now and your little demo finally convinced me to get off my rear and get one.
Glad you found it helpful and decided to make the purchase!
Why not just use battery charger??😂😂
I do. I just was wanting to see if it could be done.
You got to open it up to really understand the build quality
There is another comment below that talks about another TH-camr doing a teardown. Check it out!
That battery looks exactly the same as Elefast I have 2 of them I use them to keep my delta 3 pro running when I leave for a few days.
Good to know. Thanks for the comment!
Oh, It's a battery.
Yes it is! Oh wait.... You're mocking my thumbnail. 😁
Good review. The truth is, most of these BMS boards do NOT have over-current protection...they rely entirely on the over-temp protection to kick in, when the voltage output is too high for too long. That's dangerous, but also anyone using these types of batteries for sizable loads would be a fool to not have a proper breaker or fuse installed. Relying on the battery to save you from an over-current issue is just ignorant...a fuse or a breaker is the answer, not the $5 BMS board.
That's exactly right. You can never be too safe. Thanks for the comment.
You can't just use any fuse either some some fuses have different tolerances before they break
@@viyusavery248 - Yes, DC-rated fuses exist for a reason.
This is the best and safest performance I've seen, also at a fantastic price. No sign of it in the UK yet but will be very interested if it does become available
Thanks for the comment!
Would be interesting to see inside this battery to assess the build quality, cell and BMS manufacturer. You must have a ton of batteries laying around. How about sacrificing this one to see inside?
There is another youtuber that has reviewed this battery with a teardown. Just do a quick search for this battery and it should show up. It's a great battery.
are you sure it was a ELFHUB 12v 100ah Lifepo4 Battery teardown?? Doing a quick search doesn't find it. Maybe you are thinking of a different make and model..
@user-ml8dm9fz6l yes, his name is Clark.
@user-ml8dm9fz6l Glad you said something because I couldn't find it either. Even if you search on Clark's site
Excellent presention. Thank you. I really like your graphs showing the discharge rate and where things drop off. Nobody else is doing this, so thank you again. <grin> Seeing an actual graph of the voltage as capacity nears zero is very, very helpful. Not just for this specific battery but for LifePo4 in general. Most of my batteries don't have shunts on them or Bluetooth so I have to use voltage and the input/output watts to try to estimate where my batteries are at.
You're very welcome! I'm glad this is helpful. Thanks for the comment.
