  1. Thanks John, will do the heat prevention exercise as its cheap and there is nothing to lose. (How many heat sinks are we talking about?) What I am going to do on the power supply side is have a dc-dc converter fed off the batteries directly (obviously fuse protected) to have a decent amperage on the supply and also not have the dips if the inverter switches between utility and alternative supplies. Solar assistant offers 1 month free trial, im going to give it a shot on a different SD card to see what the system has to offer. I will report back on this discussion after the exercise.
  2. Okay so back to your installation and experience, do you experience any software reboots or “hanging ”, loss of trends at all? I understand that people tend to blame the pi’s power supply and overheating and im sure these points do play a role but my personal opinion is that the main cause for the issues would be the ICC software.
  3. Are you using it with pylontech batteries?
  4. Hi guys, was wondering if anyone have experience with the solar assistant and is it recommended over the ICC software? Like most Pi/icc users im having issues with the system. Software keeps restarting leading to loss of trends etc. My ICC software is the centurion solar version, so no updates available. Please assist
