The new Powerwall 2.1 - built in hours, not months. Introducing the Victron LYNX Bus Bar System.

Показать описание

It took us more than 6 months to build the battery 2.0 and the PowerWall. And sometimes it almost felt like the project would never end, would never be finished!
Similar to the Seplos battery system, I want to show you an alternative to such long lasting projects, still DIY but not as hardcore as the battery shelf where we had to design and built everything from scratch.
I want to introduce the Victron LYNX bus bar system which we will use to build our new PowerWall 2.1. It is a great system which is actually not that expensive considering it has the same functionality as your battery shelf top compartment with all the DC distribution.

Love you Andy!! You said we could Response COMING!!! 😆

There’s a mod you can do to the distributor that involves connecting a ground to one of the pins in the RJ11 port to make the LEDs work on the fuses without the bms controlling them. You might Google it.

Also I think those bars are tin plated copper bus bars not steel….

Only 2.4 Amps going in here on the Adelaide Plains at the moment.
I read an article this morning that Qld. has the highest % of rooftop panels in Australia.
I am now firmly convinced that you Qlders are soaking up all the sun before it can get to us.
I will have to run a cable from my place to yours just to get some input.

Loving your videos mate, keep it up.

I think the victron disease is spreading. The cost of this busbar with a plastic case, is not realistic. But victron === good, durp...

I wonder if you need a seperate shunt if using the Seplos BMS. The Seplos BMS have a shunt included, so why not use these? The sum of the both shunts from the both Seplos BMSes should be the same as the Victron shunt will measure, right?

Hi, Andy - great video but two questions: why bother with Peter if you could sell it and get another Lynx PowerIn 1000 - just because it was on hand? Q2: what is the total cost of what you showed? I’m sure cheaper than doing a lot of work on top of materials and space is always worth something, too as is Mfgr warranty and testing of their item. We all like watching you do a lot of work while we sit about with beers, but that doesn’t mean it is always a good enough reason to make everything. We can watch you do more useful work, too. 😊

The way those Victron components link together without cables is slick. Thanks for showing us.

Arrrghh…. Waiting till tomorrow for unboxing 😮😢

Now for a question about fuses. Any concerns about using much-less-costly automotive fuses in these Lynx boxes? I am thinking 1 x 300A 80V DC in the shunt for the main positive feed from 2 x 150A combined Seplos 280Ah battery banks and 4 x 50A for the four feeds from each of my four Victron MPPT 48V 150/35 solar charge controllers)? regards to all from Northumberland

Thank you Andy! Someone recently asked me about busbars and I didn't have a great answer. Now I do and it's available world wide.

ToddDesiato

Some say that "powerwall" was used even before you coined it, but I think that's utter nonsense. ;-)

@AveRage Joe haha we can't let you take it man, ! Boom💥💥

There is some controversy even on the Victron Community forum if these bus bars should really be rated for 1000A without generating a lot of heat since the cross section of the bus bar is only 8mm by 30mm. Even Victron's 600A busbar is considerably thicker than this.
