Mecer 2400va Trolley - Can I add solar regulator?
There is no need to push your lead acids so high each day, 14.3volts per battery is a tad high in my books Go and edit your settings in the Victron App and dial it back a bit My Mecer 2400VA permanently shows 27.2 volts for the 24v array when connected to ESKOM, and only goes to 28.4v when recharging after loadshedding.

Kw/Watt hour meter
I am running a 25 Amp SONOFF from Communica for R750 and love it, it gives me monthly reports based on my daily consumption for last 3 months, I have set it to only switch on in the mornings before I shower for 45 minutes, so far very happy with the results. Ignore the cost, I just entered R2.90 per unit and I know that is higer than what I am actually billed for. R750 from Communica https://www.communica.co.za/products/sonoff-energy-monitor-pow-r3?variant=39438047150153 Here you can see in April I consumed 42 units and there was a spike on the 16th coz I manually overrode the geyser to be on longer as I had 3 loads of dishes to do 😆

18650 Testing
This I see the Opus BT-C3100 v2.2 has the battery resistance tester also built into it. Does anyone know if we can buy these locally? I only find it overseas https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01852TBOU/?coliid=I18VWS8Z2AGWHA&colid=731MJRD5SVTB&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it
