  1. Can I jump in with a similar question. On the old inverter setup 'export when battery 100% full' was understandable. With the above set up how do you need to do the setting to achieve the same result? Thanks
  2. On the old settings you had export to grid if battery 100%. Now that perameter has gone so you are just left with export to grid. When will it export and will it carry on for ever?
  3. I wish I was so quick witted.
  4. I have the sunsynk 5kw. I want to have the geyser run on mains only.
  5. I was given to understand that my geezer was not connected to my solar system and would from mains power alone. However when I turn my geezer on my panel showed a 3.4kw load and a 2.7kw draw on my batteries, balance coming from my panels. Is this wrong? The installers have come back several times to try and get it to work as I expected it would without success, their only solution being to turn the inverter off. Am I wrong it expecting the geezer to bypass my inverter and batteries? Thanks
  6. My question has been well explained many times but I'm still not getting it. If I have a timer band set for 50% unticked, the system will run on battery until 50% then grid comes in and keeps it at 50%. If I have it ticked at 50% I will run on battery til 50% reached then if battery goes below 50% grid will charge to 50% I don't see any difference, please explain. Also if I want to export only 5 or 10% of the battery when it is at 100% and only if my panels are producing how should I set things? Many thanks
  7. Thanks but if the numbers on my meter are going backwards am I getting the same result.
  8. Hope this isn't added twice. I have a very old meter and when I export to grid the wheel on the meter spins backwards. Do I have a bi-directional meter without knowing it?
