Re: LV5200 Battery Charge rate ?
I’m planning on building an enclosure before next winter. The heater pads are a good tip, thanks.

3 x LV5200 charging on Octopus Go
Hi, recently installed these… They are charging at night for 7.5p per kWh then discharging through the day. Not yet connected to any PV panels but that’s coming next. Only problem so far is the degraded charging rate due to low temperature, I only have the Octopus 4 hour window to charge them back up ...

Re: LV5200 Battery Charge rate ?
Interesting, I’m having a similar issue with low temperature charging, although the figures above don’t seem right as the LV5200 is rated up to 100A for charge and discharge. My Solis inverter says the BMS is showing “status - low temp” and currently limiting the charge to 36A (about 1800W). I could ...
