Fun with heat
Having fun with keeping the batteries warm. Turned out I had a huge hole in my insulation. Got that fixed. Redid the lid. Etc. Will post an update in a few days on what temp the batteries are staying at. So at below 0C the batteries "plating of metallic lithium can occur on the anode"? I've been pretty close to 0C. So far so good though. The inverter as a heater is working at least for late fall/early winter. Yup, I did it again Lucked out. 2015 pack this time. 17kw of goodness. The battery packs appear identical to the previous gen. So not sure what or where the .5kw comes from. Next I'm planning to try a high voltage install. Something around 120v. Maybe Sunny Boy? Hmmm. All to drive a minisplit. Should be a fun experiment.
