though haven't used this product for any client BUT it looks like it should autoSelect battery voltage.

Are you sure you connected the battery cable to the right terminal and right polarity ? Certain mistakes are easy to make aTimes
Sure I connected to the right terminals

I just saw your post. Sorry this is coming late.

There's one thing about stand-alone inverters, they need to be connected directly to the battery terminal.

The charge controller should also be connected separately and directly to the battery terminals, (except you're using hybrid inverter where just one wire to the battery serves as both charge input and discharge output).

When you do this, the CC will detect the potential difference between the terminals of the battery and prepare for charging.

The inverter does not have such potential difference across it's terminals.

Now you've learnt your lesson, don't repeat same mistake.
What do I do now cus the battery terminal na plug in. Inverter cannot be connected to it directly

ask questions chief.. I cross posted same time i posted here and also on house clearance sales so don't get me wrong.

However I needed it for an airtel universal mifi that uses unlimited sim same as router ..and not all mifi works with it but mine work with it
seems someOne gave a witty response here https://www.nairaland.com/3589456/house-clearance-sales-come-here/7796#139641052

Hopefully there wouldn't be a blowBack

Here's another person that claims to sell something similar

Is this for real?
At 4s which is a 12v system, it will take roughly a week charging at 50a daily. I will never run out of energy for a year. It will still be cheaper than buying lower ah.

Let's wait for who to ship them in.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by durodee(m): 11:00am On Jun 08
It's the same. It is better if your cables are short between battery and inverter.
Whichever gives you that is better

Observe the diagram and understand what am trying to ask. Although I think I will have to get a breaker btw battery and inverte/Cc

my wires between inverter and battery is very long ehh, 10mm pure copper tokunbo cables. 5ft of cable.

Inverter at the passage cos of ventilation while battery is in the store in kitchen, we had to drill through a wall to pass the cables from passage into the store.

This is wrong though.. battery to inverter should be shorter..

Try to being both the inverter and the battery closer

To prevent power loss

embarassed I don go mess up cry I tried connecting the communication cable to my Cc . As i on pv breaker na so my inverter that was off blow and now reads 12v same with the cc. If u connect 24v battery to the cc, e go the blink error but if u connect 12v the cc go start to the charge normal. Pls guys watin be my hope. embarassed
Finally sorted it out. I manually set the cc is now charging g the lithium battery, but I lost my inverter cry @linov to the rescue Sha. So the cc is now charging the lithium battery y am now on my old msw sarchet inverter with my weak gel batry alongside pwm cc, I dey on shege promax at the moment.

I think this is the main reason y the inverter damaged . So the question now is how do I connect? Or is this battery only for hybrid users?

No I didn't boss. Everything went well untill I tried connecting the communication cable with the battery to the CC. After which I switched on the pv breaker because I been switch am off immediately the inverter that was not even on blow and started displaying 12v likewise the cc. Na so e take happen

I just pray you don't damage this your battery with all of this experimenting. Permit me to say you didn't plan this well as a DIY guy. You should have thought about the battery terminals of the Itel batteries before opting for it. SMS, LVTOPSUN and others would have given you peace. 🤷

If I may ask, why did you want to communicate your battery though?

In my opinion I think inverter to battery communication is one very needless feature, especially for small systems. In complex systems involving multiple batteries/inverters yes its understandable.

If you think otherwise please educate us.

That should be the battery terminal.

1. First look for a way to connect the CC with appropriate DC cable size (Positive to positive, Negative to Negative).

2. Then connect the inverter to the battery terminal P to P, N to N.

Or you can do number 1. Then turn on the CC and configure it to match your battery voltage before you move on to number 2.

You should be fine.

See as charge controller wey no too cost money take get fancy + fine display. The ones wey too cost no go even try get s3xy display. Kai

Still believe if you had connected the battery first to the charge controller, before the solar panels, the battery would have dropped down the voltage coming from the solar panels to the battery's nominal voltage. We not there with you BUT if you had connected the Solar panels first, or you connected the battery first BUT did not turn it ON (a lot of these Lithium batteries do have a power switch), then it's high voltage from the solar panels that damaged your inverter.

You alone knows which you actually did BUT if it was properly done, there shouldn't be any issue

Bros abeg no start argument Ooo. glad say no be me talk am else dem for talk say I hate Lithium battery.

But truth be told, those communications work though not really as important as it is for large setUps BUT then again, it's a shiny features that makes the customer's wallet bleed more
