Battery is running great. Only (major)downside is that the Bluetooth connectivity is wide open. I can manage my system fully remotely, but it doesn’t matter much if someone can walk by and shut off the battery via readily available Bluetooth app. This is a major vulnerability to the security of my system. Can’t recommend until this is fixed.
I’ve had this charger just over a month now, it is above and beyond what I expected. It’s lightweight and compact compared to other 4 bank chargers. It charges my watt cycle batteries fast and keeps them healthy and charged. And you CANT beat the price anywhere
Works great, good price, and the compact size is perfect for mounting in my boat.
Only reason it doesn't get five stars from me is I have an older Android 7 phone (Nexus 6) which is not supported by the BMS Meta app. I was able to get it working on a Kindle fire 7" by using a free app called Fake GPS. This was only possible after "jailbreaking" the Kindle and enabling google play store (a technical process which is difficult for many). If you have an obsolete phone this may be an issue for you and I did not feel like I should have to purchase a whole new phone just to watch the battery's behavior. I purchased after watching teardown videos on youtube to confirm build quality and safety features. Really, this is a five star battery for anyone not using an obsolete phone. After a few weeks, I liked it enough to buy a second unit and hooked them up in parallel for 200 amp hours.
I needed an affordable large amp hour battery in a small package. The 12V 280Ah Wattcycle Mini was the right match. This battery went in to a tight fitting Airstream Basecamp 20X trailer battery space. I did not need to make any modifications. I installed it with no issue and put a fuse in place to protect the electrical system. On three-night winter trip in the Oregon Cascades and with temperatures well below freezing, the battery easily was up to all the tasks: propane heater fans, roof vent fan, lights, 12v fridge and device charging. (I am also happy about having low temperature protection for the battery). The 300w solar panels were shaded by clouds much of the time. Thankfully, on this batteries maiden voyage it performed perfectly. Having had battery power anxiety so many times when traveling, it was great to spend more time enjoying the adventure travel experience without sweating about the battery. My next battery related purchase with be the Wattcycle 60amp charger for those rare time I want to fast charge the Mini from an outlet. For now, I look forward to many, many years of service from the battery.
