very strange indeed - could it be that their power supplies are older and more sensitive to power / voltage fluctuations?

It depends on the hardware version of the device you got - there was a revision at some point. Newer devices show those values as well as the default power-on behaviour as well

shading perhaps ?

Assuming its a sunny day of course 🙂

You can capture the inverter details on the sunsynk website and they will apply the warranty for you https://www.sunsynk.org/warranty

Which ports is the CT coil installed in? Did it work before or has it always been like this?

do you have an external meter connected to the inverter?

this is how my 2x5kw were installed as well - haven't had an issue (only been 2 months or so)

Without the CT I don't think you can separate eskom from non essentials... While those with CTs can

I've been using a time for the past year with no issues - also frees up the aux port for a generator should you need it later

Are both your installs connected with the correct comms cables and pinouts? You'll need to show us how the inverter and battery are setup

That is my understanding - i will test this and let you know (possibly only tomorrow)

Alternatively to the above - untick use timer and this will force the inverter to charge batteries to 100%

From the manual But i haven't seen it in action

Perhaps get hold of them - that document was last updated 2 years ago and things have moved so perhaps they have a new list that's not on the website

yes and yes

Yes you can add a 3rd AM2 with little to no issue.

Yes it will work with no issues. Main difference is that the SNA is an off-grid inverter while the LXP is a hybrid inverter. The SNA CAN feedback to grid in some instances but the LXP is better suited for this.

Inverter seems to have an CAN and RS485 port so it SHOULD work with either battery. Dyness uses CAN and Shoto uses both. all you'll need is the correct pin-out from battery to Inverter which should be available somewhere. I also see that Dyness is on their list of approved batteries

Makes sense

I remember this was the interim advice they gave users to use it on voltage settings until they fixed it via a firmware update. Are you able to update firmware remotely / by yourself or do you have to take it in?

Yho @Steve87... This is most impressive

What sparky said. 8 is perfect for each mppt

Solarway suppliers is also good.. Bought my phase 3 kit from thrm

we need to see how you've setup your time of use settings before we can assist - often there is something there thats causing this. FWIW a constant draw from lights, fridge and other devices can get your batteries down to that level. What level were you hoping to achieve?
