    thank you very much for your videos, they are very interesting… since I too have a 100 amp eco-worth I am happy with the result obtained after one year a warm greeting

      At what volt is this battery fully charged and discharged? Just bought this battery and i think my battery monitor may be inaccurate. Can someone tell me pls i havent fully discharged it yet.

    Just a observation, the 10A discharge rate on that 100ah it’s a 0.1C. The 1C would be 100a discharge over one hr or so.
    Nice results nevertheless, 108ah after first year it’s pretty good.

    Great video! I think I'll try recalibrating my Atorch tester and see if I can match your tests. At the same settings, I'm getting 95.7Ah/1224Wh out of my Eco after 10 months. Nice job with the new BMS, bluetooth and heating are great additions!

    Nice to see the battery hold up well ..cheers forthat .. BTW the "C" relates to the capacity so 1C discharge for this battery is 100A ..10A discharge is 0.1C.. No biggie ;-) !

    Thanks for the video. I was wondering what the low voltage cut off is on the Eco BMS? Also, how is the battery holding up after another year? Thanks

    • @DCGUY
      @DCGUY  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Mine are still doing the job. Low voltage cut off should be in the region of 10 volts.

  • @philbrooke-little7082
    @philbrooke-little7082 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    What sort of use did it have in terms of cycling over the year? What voltage were you charging to? How low were you cycling it? What sorts of charge and discharge currents? Any idea of Wh cycled?

    • @DCGUY
      @DCGUY  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I charged using mppt set at default 7 for lifepo4 14.2 discharge currents varied day to day. I'm upgrading bms to help me capture more accurate data. I have 2 banks of 3 in parallel which in my set up I can use one bank or both banks, same with charging.

    Hi, hope you're well and enjoying the Sun we have today. I was wondering if you still have and use these batteries. FYI remember i told you about an issue i had with the Edecoa All-in-One 4500w inverter and the voltage coming from the Input, well it was indeed an earthing issue. Strange that there is not 1 person reviewing or talking about this inverter on TH-cam or pretty much the entire web.

    The 1.3 ohms you mentioned earlier in the video is the load resistance, not the internal resistance of the battery.

    I am back with another question. What manufacturer is the BMS in your batteries? I ask because that is the part that usually fails onn these batteries. Thanks in Advance.

    • @DCGUY
      @DCGUY  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The are actually JBD BMS units, not top of the range but functional for the use. I ended up upgrading mine with an updated JBD 100a BMS with Bluetooth as I like to see cell data.

    I noticed your 100 amp eoc worthy batteries have prismatic cells. Eco-Worthy has told the one I purchased a week ago has cylindrical cells & it does weight more by about 3 lbs. I have not load tested but it wil;l only charge up to 14.2 volts. How far does yours charge up to?

    • @DCGUY
      @DCGUY  ปีที่แล้ว

      14.2 is what I charge mine to. If it is Cylindrical Cells the bms will take a bit longer to balance too.

    • @louisbond646
      @louisbond646 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@DCGUY I was A little hesitant because it seems they have changed the internals of this battery to Cylindrical cells. I know that Battle Born uses cylindrical cells also & they have a great reputation along with a high price tag.

    Hello, I realize your post was a year ago, but I am going to try to ask for help anyways......
    I bought 2 Eco worthy batteries just like the ones you have in the video. 12v100ah, last summer. I also have an Ecoworthy Charger. I only ended up using one of the batteries,as the other was not needed. I used this battery about 5 times last summer( on a snowcone stand), never fully discharged. They were kept indoors all winter, cool dry room.....Well, its Summer here now-neither one will charge, the charger flashed 13.0 then 4.5A ,and that all it does....The batteries measure @ 1/2 full but have both dies when I tried to use them this year, today actually, while serving customers at a market----and the fore mentioned is what happens when I got them home to charge them and try investigate what happened. But I don't know whats happening, or what to do about it, or anything? Cold you please help me? Keep in mind, I am not as advanced as you, not do I have all these interesting gadgets---just a farmers market snowcone stand owner trying to get help. I hop you get this and can reply. Thank you for you time.

    • @DCGUY
      @DCGUY  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Sorry to hear of your situation. Do you have access to another charger? It may be the charger that is causing the issue, but it is a case of ruling that in or out.

    • @uncontrollabledogs3791

      I Would attempt opening the battery and measure each cell to see if voltage are equal and above 2.5v. If not, charge cells individually and try again.

      While lifepo4 can be charged to 14.2-14.6V their resting voltages are usually in the 13V range, so anything over 13.5 is considered fully charged these days. Low voltage cut off is 10V
