Not a good chemist

Wiglaf posted:

it sounds to me like this is a problem with the battery control.

Using the 11 weeks from full charge mentioned on the blog and the 53kWh capacity of the battery gives roughly 28 watts as a continuous load (which would require a big solar panel), not counting the self discharge of the battery pack. That seems somewhat high, and makes me think that it really is a software problem if it's a real problem at all.
That said, all batteries can be ruined by deep deep discharge.
