Are they not reliable?Reliable and Hubble in the same line. 😂
Reliable and Hubble in the same line. 😂
My mate swears by them and he just helped us purchase two of them so I trust him x)yeah, don't say things like that without a reason why
for a lot of people they are probably a top of list choice, so seeing you say that is sad
Did you see the review on the item?Here you go,
Hubble Lithium AM-5 5.12kWh 51.2V Battery
Hubble Lithium's AM5 model is a low voltage (51V), 5.12kWh battery made up of superior prismatic lithium-ion (LFP) cells. These battery cells have more energy density and a longer cycle life compared to standard lithium cells. Product Features Delivers unlimited charge-discharge cycles within...powerforum-store.co.za
Something wrong with Hubble? I just purchased a Hubble batteryReliable and Hubble in the same line. 😂
You having issues with them and what did you buy?Something wrong with Hubble? I just purchased a Hubble battery
No I was replying to @Confucius 's post implying they're not reliable.You having issues with them and what did you buy?
Happy you not having issues. What did you buy?No I was replying to @Confucius 's post implying they're not reliable.
You went on MyBB? What is this?! Jk jkI’m not sure about the latest AM5 but the AM2 had serious issues with losing capacity and the support from Hubble was shit. They basically didn’t want to support people who didn’t get a battery through an approved distributor and also required people to buy the expensive cloud monitoring so that firmware updates could be pushed.
Initially, they said warranty is void if bms was not connected and later when the shit hit the fan, their solution was to remove the bms comms and just use voltages.
Even the AM5 comes with a 10 year warranty and unlimited cycles but the fine print says the the BMS only has a 2 year warranty. Like wtf. Why not just provide 10 year on the whole battery.
Initially, all negative comments about Hubble was deleted from powerforum and anyone that questioned them was banned.
There’s also some threads on mybb about them.
Edit: I see the am5 also now use LFP cells instead of the older AM2 that used NMC. So maybe it’s better.
Installed a luxpower inverter this weekend with a 5kwh Volta battery for a pure backup solution, no solar. So far, so good but they are both relatively new in the market.
In my previous life before I joined carb I was on PF and mybb.You went on MyBB? What is this?! Jk jk
Thanks for the detailed feedback.
How does a C.O.C prove that the person installed it did it correctly? A C.O.C doesn't check your inverter/battery settings it just says "yo... the wiring in this place is up to code".The gent did say that in future they'll probably request that you provide your C.O.C for the installation to make sure that it was installed by someone qualified and done correctly, which I can understand considering how quickly you can destroy a battery if you don't know what you're doing
It's a decent middle ground I think. Like at least done by someone qualified who did it with the right protections. At least that what I thought, based on the guy who did mine, telling me the things that he has to check before signing off on it.How does a C.O.C prove that the person installed it did it correctly?

X100 is LFP, X101 is NMC...They replaced it with a x101 as the x100

Sure it's not checking that the inverter values are correct, but it does check that some basic things are in place, like the wires are the right gauge and there are fuses in place and stuff.
It's better than something like only accepting claims from one of their approved installers

I replaced an inverter at my sisters place recently.
This is what I found after the previous inverter install.
This is what it looked like after I was done.
None of those checks are relevant to the battery and it's operation. Those checks are to ensure electricity supplied to the home is according to regulation and protects the home and its occupants, not the battery. The battery has its own management to control flow in and out. I too can't see the relevance of a COC for a battery warranty.It's a decent middle ground I think.

Not gonna lie, that's was bit dick of them.X100 is LFP, X101 is NMC...
According to Hubble Lithium | X-101 it's a Lithium bat... Where did you see that it isn't?X100 is LFP, X101 is NMC...
Both LFP and NMC and lithium batteries. It’s just different materials that they use for the cathode.According to Hubble Lithium | X-101 it's a Lithium bat... Where did you see that it isn't?
Thanks for the clarification.Both LFP and NMC and lithium batteries. It’s just different materials that they use for the cathode.
