Thanks. After my post I understood that settings 12 and 13 don't really matter for me as I have no solar currently. System is only for loadshedding

Good day, I recently installed the above set up and would like some advice on the current settings which are reflecting on the invertor. Setting 03 AC Input Voltage Range - UPS Setting 12 Voltage point back to utility source - 46% Setting 13 Voltage point back to battery mode - 95% Would the above be correct/recommended? Additionally, I noticed my battery continuously discharges and recharges from 100% to 95% , then back to 100%. Takes about 6 hours to discharge to 95%, then about 15 min to get back to 100%. Is this normal and has anything to do with setting 13 by any chance? Appreciate any assistance. Thanks

It worked. Thank you!

Hi, I have just installed a growatt spf500es and Dyeness a48100 battery, however the 2 are failing to communicate and my installer can't seem to get it right. Could someone assist

Thank you, will give it a try

Hi, could anyone assist with the installer code so I may register on the shine app

Hi, did u end up getting this battery? Would u recommend it?

Hi, does anyone have experience with this battery? How does it perform compared to other brands?

Both

Thanks for the feedback all. Any recommended installers for the Durban area?

Hi, I wouldn't say significant but I understand it is cheaper eg. I have been quoted R24k for the R100 5.12kw and seems to have the same performance and warranty as the other options. Is there something else you would suggest? The invertor I'm considering is the mecer 5kw MKS 2.

Good day, I am in the process of buying a revov 5.12kw 2nd life, and just wondering how have they performed thus far? Also how has their service been, if you happened to contact them?

How about Revov Li ion batteries?

Hi, did you manage to come right with an installer? I'm also look for one in Durban

Hi 87, thank you for the feedback. Are there any recommened installers for the Durban area? Re. the Raspberry Pi, without this module will the invertor still be able to manage the battery cycling? Re. the 450V solar input voltage, is this a different spec to the Mecer 5kw or are there various specs within the range? Re. the batteries, these are what the installers have quoted on. Are there other batteries that I should consider?

Good day all, I'm new to this and load shedding has got me really frustrated, so appreciate all the assistance in advance. I've decided to install an inverter back up power supply system at home and require some advice. Purpose: Mainly for load shedding and adhoc power outages Kw Usage: I estimate I consume approximately 2.5-3kwH. Essentials that would be powered by back up are led lights, fridge, 2 x freezer, 2 x TV, 2 x decoder, phone, modem, single door garage motor, ps4, 2 x fan, 4 x led lamps, clock radio Invertor: The Mecer 5kw hybrid seems like a reasonably priced unit, and very common in the market, so I am considering going with this + I have the option to add solar panels later on Battery: Revov R100 5.12kw VS. Pylontech UP5000 4.8kw are the 2 Li-ion batteries I'm considering. 1. Are both these batteries compatible to the Mecer? 2. Are these batteries required to be used daily to ensure lifespan, warranty etc. considering usage will be intermittent 3. Can the Mecer manage item 2 automatically ie. Daily/weekly discharge if required when there is no load shedding Installation + Electrical incld. DB: Based on a few quotes, this cost has ranged between R9k to R20k. Is there a benchmark that I could refer too? Monitoring: Is there a built in / automatic monitoring system that I could check re. usage etc. or is this something additional that I need to install? Thank you
