On the LiS circuit board the switch is a very small red rectangular thing, on the left side of the board, below the negative terminal blocks. It might be 1/4" long, and 1/8" inch wide, that's being...

RE: Batteries in different SOC - I did charge them separately after the initial attempts to charge them both at the same time. I used a small lithium compatible portable charger, and it took a VERY...

Resolved Pt. 2

When things would shut down, there was an audible "click". I don't hear very well, so missed the source. I was all focused on the WFCO LiS board and upgrade, or maybe the batteries, or wiring...

Thanks, that's good advice.

FWIW they were both at about 70% (using a small 3.5a trickle charger) when I separated them and charged them individually. So, that helps me feel somewhat confident...

Well, I separated the batteries and charged them individually, and things worked fine. They only took about 15-20a charging rate each, so even combined that's a lot less than was being produced to...

Thanks, that's an approach I hadn't thought of. I'll try it if I don't find some other solution. I'm still wondering why the 55a charger wants to push more power than it's rated for. I know the...

I'll let you know how this turns out.

Both Renogy and WFCO have replied, with questions that I've answered and I'm waiting to see what they have to say.

Thanks for the responses.

FWIW the batteries check out fine, w/no error codes. They were delivered partially charged, at 33 & 41% respectively. So, the controller was working pretty hard to ...
