good morning all! hope =veryone had a great weekend.. minus GSJ with no power.
i feel very good about my visit today. i was =eceiving error codes pertaining to an OVER-VOLTAGE
situation. this is =reat news considering we have been fighting the opposite problem since =he hurricanes. i have had the
system set to perform at the absolute =eek voltage it can to avoid loosing power. this maximum voltage setting =eeters
the system on the edge of its capabilities. as we see now it has =btained and exceeded its voltage setting limits on the
sunny islands. =here is no damage done, only the inconvenience of it shutting down to =rotect itself. Today i throttled
back the target voltage by lv. this =hould prevent more shutdowns due to over voltage. i think we have got =his system
dialed in.
All the best, Dan Chrisman

Good =fternoon all, sorry for the delay my email had an issue and became
=nlinked so I wasn't receiving these untill now. Regarding GSJ =ere is what's been achieved.
-all Aquion battery =odules are wired to bypass the corroded, water damaged
circuit boards =hat could interfere with charging profiles.
-sunny islands (6) =ere downgraded to firmware version 6.0.02. This was done
to allow a =roader, linear charge profile to be set
-charging parameters =re now based on voltage set points rather than state of
charge =alculations done internally with different references.
-max charge voltage =as been set to 58.5V and the batteries will not stop
charging untill a =oltage 1.5V over the set limit is a achieved for 15 seconds. This gives =hem the ability to serpase the
previous charge voltage of 56.7V
- the main issue =hat caused so much down time before was as follows. A target
charge =oltage that matched the Aquion batteries was not possible with the =revious profile. Compiled on that was
faulty Aquion circuit boards =reventing the batteries from properly charging to a suitable voltage. =quion, as we know, is
no more, so it's impossible to obtain =eplacement parts. Aquions bms never met the as advertised performance =nd
created more issues than we could have imagined. In short, the =hanged I made allowed for a higher, more suitable
battery voltage to be =chieved and prevents the premature shut down we saw before.

Afternoon =ichard,
Brad is traveling to =an Francisco for a conference and I'm boarding a plane to
STX. ='ve asked Dan to write a synopsis of his efforts and we have =een monitoring for proper function. I'll relay this
tomorrow =nce he's finished.
We're still =valuating but all is functioning as intended for the moment.
Additional =onitoring and confirmation are needed since the weather over the last =eek has been extremely cloudy.
Would it be possible =o have our call on Thurs. afternoon at 3 EST?
