Simply, what does the BM-2 do that the BM-1 doesn't?
For anyone who does not know the difference, the BM-1 is rated up to 100 amps and the BM-2 to 200amps.
£100 ishmy existing Solar regulator shows charge rate, discharge rate and battery Voltage or % charge what is the differance please.
But the blurb says it can handle from 5 to 650 amps What on earth are you running to want 2.5kw--must be overkillNeed to buy a BM-2 (as I now have a 2.5KW inverter ), so selling the BM-1 I have (never installed or used). Offering here before I put on ebay.

Sorry about that Pablomc, I'm no electrician nor do I fully read the postings. :Sad:
So have I goofed in buying a BM-1 to connect to the 4x 6 volt 232 Amp hour house batteries that are connected in series so giving (if I understand it correctly) 12 volt 464 AH?
Thanks :thumb:

only drawback with a large inverter, it will use more power when idle...ie: on standby with nowt plugged in... than a litte 'un so really needs turning off completely when not in use.See the previous post re the rating. :thumb:
Re the 2.5 better to have too much than too little. :Tongue1:
BTW if you have 4 X 6 volt batteries then they should be wired as pairs in series then those two pairs in parallel for 12 volts. If you wire them all in series you will have 24 volts and if all in parallel 6 volts. If in doubt ask. :thumb:

thats what i mean.....doesnt sound a lot but added up it is a lot.0.4A in power save mode and 1.8 A in on mode, or as described by Techno100 can be switched off at the remote panel.
1.8amp over 24hrs = 43.2amps

That's your average MH battery flattened in 24hrs and the inverter has done sweet FA work.
Mind you, same average battery wouldn't last 10 mins with that thing really working. Lifespan of battery wouldn't be long I would think.
