  2. Awesome feedback, thanks @Sidewinder Looks like my best option is to bite the bullet and get a professional to sort it out. Can't beleive I ever got a CoC for this system. Must have been a back handed deal with the installer.

  4. Hi everyone, I bought a new battery and would require a new CoC after installation. I would appreciate it you could let me know if there are any red flags on my current setup that I could fix prior to getting someone out to do the CoC. Thank you.

  13. Hi Guys, I have one of these adapters (see pic below). Will I be able to use this to create a cable for connecting a US3000C to PC using Batteryview? If so, please can you let me know which pins of a RG45 connector go where. Many thanks.
  14. Google them. All details on their site. I installed it myself. Easy setup! Cheers
  15. Hi All, Is it normal for a solar installer to charge a call-out/labor fee for the removal and re-installation of a battery (under warranty)? Thanks!

  19. Hi All, Please refer to the two wiring options below: 1. Is there a benefit to using option 1 vs the more common method in option 2? 2. In option 2, does the + & - cables going to the inverter have to be the same length? Thanks!
  20. Hi Theo, Go to "Battery Setting", select Use batt %, accept changes. Wait a minute or two then change back to Lithium and accept changes.
