  1. Hi Thanks for a great forum. I have an existing Axpert 5.5kw inverter with 2 x 2.5kw Pylontech batteries all setup. I was wondering - who's the goto guy in Jhb for mounting solar panels on a chromadek roof?
  2. If you don't want the hassle of making your own cable, such a cable can be purchased here. https://www.hdcabling.co.za/product/pylontech-console-cable-for-battery-monitoring-us2000-us3000a-b-us3000c-up2500-up5000/?attribute_pa_pylontech-cable-options=2-meter-usb-to-rj11-for-us2000-us3000a-b.
  3. Question: WIll 2 x Pylon tech US 2000B survive loadshedding over the next year, or do I need to order another battery? Currently, the batteries are giving me about 4 hours running time on current load. Thanks in advance
  4. I think the issue is resolved with the above settings. The new problem is that the Axpert doesn't always switch over automatically when the mains goes down.
  5. Thanks Beat. To clarify, We have 2x Pyltontech 3000B batteries. Axpert settings are below: 01 0E1 02 20 03 APL 04 5DS 05 USE 06 LFEa 07 EFD 09 50 11 3DA 12 48 13 51 16 SNU 18 GOA 19 ESP 20 LON 22 AON 23 BYD 25 FDS 26 53.2 27 53.2V 28 PAL 29 46.0 30 ONE 31 56E 32 AUE 33 EDS 34 58.4 35 60 36 120 37 30D 38 D15 39 ADS
  6. Hi, We have an MECER Axpert MKS Hybrid off-grid inverter 5kVA/5kW with Pylontech 3000. At the end of load shedding, when the power is restored, the inverter begins charging. Right at the end of its charging cycle, the power drops for a brief period and causes all computers in the office to switch off. Any idea on what setting on the inverter needs to be adjusted to prevent this brief cut off from happening? Thanks Jim
