EEVblog 1634 - 15kWh AERL LFP Home Storage Battery Install!

Installing a 15kWh AERL Life2 LiFePo4 solar home storage battery to my Deye inverter. Thanks to Peter Watkinson from AERL, one of my long time viewers! AERL were the first to invent and patent the Maximum Power Point Tracker MPPT used in all modern solar systems.
