Battery discharging then charged every night — Potential Sustain protection or SOC setting

What does Battery discharging then charged every night mean?

The battery undergoes a cycle of discharging and then recharging each night. This behavior might be related to the system's Sustain protection settings or the minimum State of Charge (SOC) configuration.

• The 'Sustain protection' feature is active and managing battery levels.
• The 'Minimum SOC' level is set too low.
• Sustain voltage levels are set too low, causing the battery to drop and then recharge.

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Consider increasing the 'Minimum SOC' level in the ESS menu by 5% and observe the behavior.

2. 2

   If comfortable, adjust the sustain voltages in VEConfigure. Use caution, especially with lead-acid batteries, as these levels are designed to prevent damage.

3. 3

   Review the system's daily energy usage patterns to ensure the SOC settings are appropriate.

4. 4

   Consult the manual's section on 'Sustain' for detailed information on these settings.
