SOLIS S6 6KW ADVANCED HYBRID GIVEAWAY
I never had any issues with the Sunsynk, I had the model with the old Solarman dongle, with limited inverter control functionality, I am not sure re the new dongle or application. The Solis app has a great interface and many options for controlling your inverter settings. I really like how quiet the Solis operate and the better PV and many other features you can read about. Their prices are also pretty similar.

SOLIS S6 6KW ADVANCED HYBRID GIVEAWAY
I have a 3000w ups for my alarm, pc, laptop, router with 0ms switching and sometimes when load shedding kicks in the ups doesn't get triggered and other times it does, not sure why it sometimes triggers and other times not, but impressed with the times it doesn't get triggered. I definitely think I'm getting better PV with the Solis, even or rainy and overcast days, there has not been a single day my batteries haven't charged back to 100%

SOLIS S6 6KW ADVANCED HYBRID GIVEAWAY
@Moffat Normal household usage, gas plates, electric oven, tumble dryer, 3kw PTC geyser element, 51000 BTU aircons, kettle, microwave, borehole pump, etc etc average daily statistics: Before with my 8kw Sunsynk i would of added another 8kw, thus having 16 kw, but two 6kw's would only give me 12 and I didn't want to have to get another 6kw at a later stage for future possible needs. super quiet, much less noisy than the Sunsynk Zero export configured and zero exported Sold the Sunsynk to the installer, paid for one of the Solis 6kw's

SOLIS S6 6KW ADVANCED HYBRID GIVEAWAY
Finally installed and up and running! Before: Now: In addition to the 6kw I won, I purchased two 6kw's, three AM-2's and seven 550w solar panels. I now have 18kw load capacity, 12495w solar power and 33kwh backup power. The Solis app is good, interface and functionality wise, but only updates every 5 or so minutes unless you are connected via Bluetooth at close range, rather disappointing. I still have my Hubble Cloudlink connected to my batteries, for firmware updates and can see near real time charge/discharge values, but Hubble is still developing the inverter integration so cant see near real time inverter statistics. Overall the installation looks kick ass, my batteries have only gone down to a minimum 40% overnight and solar max's out at 11.5 kw before my batteries are fully charged around midday. Any questions let me know.

SOLIS S6 6KW ADVANCED HYBRID GIVEAWAY
Have an existing 8kw Sunsynk and three Hubble AM2's and 19 x 455 watt solar panels, any guidance to get them to work together? Using the inverters aux port? Which one as primary? Planning on getting 3 more Hubble AM2's. Couldn't of come at a better time was just planning on getting another 8kw Sunsynk and running them in parallel.

RIOT Cloudlink Sunsynk & Deye monitoring
Some good news. After updated my 8kw sunsynk to the latest versions, and obtaining new CAN and MUL cables from Hubble, the monitoring is working: The settings page is still an issue though:

RIOT Cloudlink Sunsynk & Deye monitoring
Hi. I purchased 3 x AM-2's, a cloudlink and the 8Kw Sunsynk inverter from the powerforum store. I am having the same problems: After a week of back and forth, my installer spoke to a senior technician at hubble who confirmed the cloudlink is installed and configured correctly and that full monitoring is not yet working with the 8kw Sunsynk. Do we have an eta on when this will be fixed? Also as per https://www.hubblelithium.co.za/sunsynk-hubble-setup.html full monitoring is available. Kindly advise @HubbleLithium

Hubble battery delivery delay.
I had to wait 6 weeks, paid for three AM-2's on the 30th of November and only got delivered today, also the logistics company they use dispatched the batteries three separate days and returned them back to to depot twice.

Noob : Starting the journey
Good day, I live in Cape Town and need some advise please 🤓 I currently have a 1000 watt inverter with two 105Ah lead calcium batteries and a dedicated DB Board (Main switch, Earth leakage, 6A circuit breaker for lights and 10A circuit breaker for plugs/appliances), the batteries worked OK for about 2 years, but they are dead now and I don't want to be in the same situation 2 years down the line. So I have been doing some research, including CoCT approved PV inverters, battery technology, Inverter technology and terminology. Resulting in: What the System needs to do/have/be able: Use solar while grid is off Use solar while grid is on (even if load is greater than what PV supply) Accurate state of charge (not only voltage, but also including % charged, time to full charge, duration battery left, etc) Reserve power for evening and power failures Modular and Scalable Remote monitoring / control / software/firmware upgrades I need to phase the installation, to start off with "not being impacted by load shedding" and progressively generating my own power to rely less on Eskom. The System will be in my garage, where I have multiple tropical fish tanks with industrial Metal Halide lights (2000W total), water pumps and water heaters. So the inverter and batteries need to be able to handle heat and humidity. I do not want the industrial MH lights, water heaters, geyser, tumble dryer or stove on the System, but would like to be able to supply any excess PV to these appliances to reduce my electricity bill. Detailed appliances that need to be on the System: Lights (Inside and outside), (CFL or LED, busy replacing CFL with LED) Computer/Work room (PC + Work Laptop + 2 x Monitors, internet, alarm, fan) Garage door, water and air pumps, electric gate Lounge - TV, surround sound system, fan, android tv box and heating pad (for my super tiny chihuahua that gets cold on 30+ degree days) Bedroom - bedside lights + chargers, heating pad, fan and wifi camera to monitor my chihuahua (as he has seizures) Borehole irrigation Regarding Inverters, I need 8kW for future additions, I am looking at: SunSynk 8kW Hybrid (https://powerforum-store.co.za/collections/inverters/products/copy-of-sunsynk-8kw-1p-hybrid-pv-inverter-48v) DEYE 8kW Hybrid (https://www.deyeinverter.com/product/hybrid-inverter-1/hybrid-inverter-sun5-6ksg01lp1us-sun7-6-8ksg01lp1us-eu.html) Axpert MAX II (https://voltronicpower.com/en-US/Product/Detail/Axpert-MAX-II) Some questions, re Axpert MAX II: Would I run in to problems given the heat and humidity and only 1 - 2 years warrantee? Don't think it supports feeding excess PV to appliances not on the System, kindly confirm? any personal experience or things to be aware of? re SunSynk and DEYE: Would I run in to problems given the heat and humidity? I like them both but not sure which one is better and why? any personal experience or things to be aware of? Regarding batteries, I prefer Cylindrical over Prismatic (https://blog.epectec.com/lithium-batteries-cylindrical-versus-prismatic), they need to be LiFePO4, have a 10 year warrantee, >5000 designed cycle life, be compatible with the above inverters, be able to last at least 2.5 hours, 80 - 90% DOD, and recharge before the next 2.5 hours. I am looking at getting 2 or 3 of the following: REVOV 2nd LiFe R100 ,51.2V 100Ah 5.1kWh (https://revov.co.za/2ndlife/r100-2ndlife-battery/) Shoto 5.12kWh (https://sp-energy.co.za/product/shoto-5-12kwh-lithium-ion-battery/) Some questions, Both the batteries have a 10 year warrantee, 16 cell configuration, designed cycle life of 7000+. But they vary in price 25k vs 22k each. Would I run in to problems given the heat and humidity? Which one is more reliable? any personal experience or things to be aware of? Regarding solar panels, I will be Incrementally adding them as budget allows and I am looking at: Mecer - Solar 445W PV Modules MONO (https://www.geewiz.co.za/new-items/160048-mecer-solar-445w-pv-modules-mono.html) JA Solar 540W Mono PERC Half-Cell MBB (https://powerforum-store.co.za/collections/solar-panels/products/copy-of-solar-panel-ja-solar-490w-mono-perc-half-cell-mbb-silver-frame) Which one is more reliable? any personal experience or things to be aware of? Many thanks for taking the time to read this and your advise would be greatly appreciated!
