Guthrum got a reaction from occuplus in SunSynk / Deye inverter using power from grid@Michaelza Unfortunately that's is the issue I have with this brand of inverter. We replaced the inverter with a brand new one, same issue. Had a couple of solar expert come and try to sort out this issue to no success, they tried adding capacitors to my setup did not work. SynSynk/Deye was contacted with no solution. My only solution at this point was to switch off the grid during the day as well. If you find a solution please do share.

Guthrum got a reaction from Analytical in Hubble Lithium Battery AM-2 5.5kWhI noticed my cycle count is also doing 2 a day, I read somewhere on the forum that every manufacture calculates it differently. I speak under correction but with one of the support emails with Hubble they did mention that "Cycles are calculated when you drain your battery by 50% and charge it back up, this will be seen as a cycle." So I suppose two a day checks out then not super happy with it.

Guthrum reacted to Analytical in Hubble Lithium Battery AM-2 5.5kWhJust to add a bit of my experience here. My batteries were losing capacity like crazy. I ended up at 174Ah for three batteries according to Solar Assistant. Hubble support asked me to send the batteries in so they can troubleshoot, but I was reluctant to take the system apart and be without my batteries so procrastinated for 3 months. I was convinced it was firmware, as the cell voltages were all very close and didn't indicate bad cells.
Last week I saw Guthrum and werner.potgieter had success with with getting the firmware from Hubble, and they were kind enough to share with me. I have the RS232 cable as I run Solar Assistant and uploaded the firmware a week ago, and my capacity is now sitting at 315Ah (315 x 50 = 15.75kWh). Checking the logs and I can see that I get about 12.5kWh from my batteries each night at a DoD of 20%, so I am much happier with my setup now.
My remaining issue now is that the batteries' cycle count is still increasing too quickly. About 2 per day, where I definitely do not charge and discharge that much. I hope the cycle count is not used for warranty purposes as the batteries are burning through the cycles.

Guthrum got a reaction from StepbyStep in Hubble Lithium Battery AM-2 5.5kWhNot sure if SA can update it directly, but if you get the firmware from Hubble Support you can use the SA cable with a laptop to install it. Support provides an app to do the install that way.
I don't have a Riot link but don't like the idea that I need internet access all the time. SA work offline and has great realtime stats.

Guthrum reacted to JayN in Hubble Lithium Battery AM-2 5.5kWhI've had my firmware updated and the the battery now refuses to go below 52% SOC. This was the original issue, then it suddenly dropped to 0% and was erratic. I basically have about 40% capacity in the battery after 7 months.
@HubbleLithiumPlease can you comment, as your batteries are failing left right and centre.

Guthrum reacted to Tariq in Excess Grid Usage - Deye 5Kw Hybrid Inverter with 5.5 kwh Lithium battery and 8x JA Solar Panels@Guthrum, you mentioned that you are based in Cape Town, if you don't come right, maybe I could come out and help you.
