Running Heavy Loads in Daylight to Save Batteries — Advice on My Off-Grid System
2x comments from my side. Booster pump (maybe other pumps as well) on a separate inverter ; ie instead of 3x in parallel take 2x in parallel and the third one separate for pumps. I've got a similar scenario and this will ensure that if there is a sudden "pull" that your normal appliances cannot be impacted by this The (almost) 30KwH seems to be quite high for only lights and your base evening load? I've got about 20kwH nominal and can run dishwasher twice in the evening if required.

In off-grid, do I plug the generator into Gen port or Grid port?

Most likely the Gen port , even in off grid scenario the Gen port charging can be limited and inverter is aware of possible hertz fluctuations

ICC Software Monitoring - are they still in business?
Sorry I can't assist with licenses and keys. I'm still hoping that someone would be able to take the ICM project further but this doesn't seem to be the case...

Pylontech US2000 Plus - replacing cells or advise
All back to normal again - this was a once-off lower-than-usual SOC due to very low PV and Eskom being unavailable for a few days in my area. It re-calibrated the same day and back to the normal and in line with the other US2000 Plus'es

Pylontech US2000 Plus - replacing cells or advise
I've been charging my Pylontech's on 52.4v but cycles now around 800 cycles and see that one cell (and overall SOC of applicable battery) is not aligned with the other ones anymore. First 4x = US3000C's , battery 5-8 = US2000 Plus series. Who has experience / guidance here - I've seen some activity where some users were looking for other cells. Would be great if someone can point me in a direction. Screenshot from ICM below.

How to disconnect from Eskom
I've decide to pull the plug - literally but also figuratively. Based on my quick google search the easiest would be an email #DCE submitting a disconnection request. I've send an email this morning but need some advice / guidance from someone that went through this recently.

Selling 6 x Pylontech US3000C
R2.6k more for brand new battery. For some reason batteries got significantly cheaper, good reason to upgrade but has impact on 2nd hand value.

Looking for used Pylontech UP5000, US3000 or US2000
What is your current cycle count - assume you need something more or less the same?
