  2. Hi, email has been sent... Please follow the SOP.
  3. Hi There, I have sent it to you by email. Please let me know if you have received it.
  4. Great, well done!
  5. Sent you an email with the previous version, please try and let me know if it works...
  6. Sorry, have to add, this only works with windows PC and also at your own risk.
  7. Firmware received from Growatt China (Feb 2022) I used that guide and it worked out that the inverter has to be in Battery standby mode, else it wonโ€™t start the process. i.e. The only thing to be connected to the inverter is the battery. Disconnect Solar and disconnect all loads. There was a step-by-step instruction on elleyhillpower.co.za however their website has been down for more than a week now, not sure why. The file "SOP" gives decent instructions to follow. Installation tool included in the 40.06.rar 40.06.rar Update SOP for SBC5000_20200115(1).pdf
  8. @ccitaly Hi Bud, I have e-mailed the files to you with some additional info. Both bin files included and the Installation tool. Best of Luck

  13. Hi, I received your message, I will email the Firmware to you.
  14. I would suggest you go with the Deye/Sunsynk. After a lot of research on the Growatt, they are quite a few steps behind the likes of Deye/Sunsynk, Victron etc. I still think the growatt is a great inverter and great value for money but it's short of a few features that some of us really want, biggest issues being it's not a proper Hybrid and does not Blend as it should, I would assume if Growatt fixed that in their Firmware it would be a game changer for them.

  16. Hi @MikeP, did you get the firmware? If not, I can send it to you. Send me your email address.
  17. Hi, Thanks for this, will definitely keep it in mind. One of the features of the Deye seems similar to this, I will post the video to this message. Seems like you are managing your system well, well done! Sunsynk's are highly rated, I believe the Deye is quite similar, maybe check it out, the Deye is also a lot cheaper. Sorry to hear about the substations, hope you never get affected by it. Soon they will steal the "Sun" then we F#$@*&.
