Hello, I have two 450watt panels in parallel with an open voltage of 47volts I’ve been using for 5 months to charge my Elite 200. All, was well until yesterday when it just stopped mid-afternoon. No alarms triggered. The display does show solar connected and yesterday clicked on and off every 10 seconds, but never pulls amperage or displays watts. Today no clicking when I tried it again. It does show 46 volts in the app and on my fluke. The panels do still work on another powerstation with the same cables. Everything else works normal on the Elite 200, just no solar amperage. I have a ticket into bluetti for a couple days but no response so I thought id check in here to see if anyone else experienced this after a few months of use. Thoughts?
Does a single panel work? Generally a parallel connection is fine and the MPPT controller will reject the remaining amps/current, but not all solar panels will 100% work. MPPT still has to negotiate the charge. Back off one panel and see if that works.
Yeah, I did try one panel. Still nothing. Also, I’m no where near 20 amps. At best its 12ish this time of year. The most I’ll see is 550watts for maybe a couple hours. Summer time it did +800watts regularly.
