Are BMS reliable?
Often the SOC needs a calibration,Hubble had me drain to 0 then charge to reset,I was sitting at 0% SOC when there was around 30% left in the tank before recalibrating like that

PV Power On Load
Lower PF than 1?

Axpert MAX 7.2 problem in SNU charging
Seen same behaviour on my clone,do you have a "Utility First" Charging Source Priority available?

CCTV Cameras flickering on inverter
Odd Analogue/Digital cameras? BNC/CAT cabled?

New Kodak installation
Voltage based guestimation doesn't work very exact when those batteries have a sudden voltage drop when applying load Also there's usually an inherent leech involved even with no loads
-
Generator Sizing
Suspect Mecer just went with the guaranteed nuclear option,able to provide your entire load + charge at maximum C rating simultaneously - not exactly wrong,but likely overkill

Is 10x 460w solar panels too many for 5kw inverter/battery?
Rather too many panels than too few,for the less-than-sunny days to have some production rather than nearly nothing I rate

How much should Solar system be producing
Underfloor (well any area heating) is very inefficient powerwise and just gets worse the larger the area and increases power losses You'd be better served using something concentrated like heated blankets and at worst - aircons with heatpump+inverter

Logging power consumption...
Haven't noticed the same but then again I only experimented with Ewelink (Sonoff) Found my preference to be Smartlifehome (Tuya) like this
-
Logging power consumption...
Seems to be 1-2seconds,i've used these types of breakers to monitor power consumption live as devices are switched on and off

Watchpower for PC
If it's the Wifi module I think it is - no,there is a Wifimonitor APK that can do local network connection but the modules need to be configured for Wifi instead of AP connection I've only seen Watchpower PC be used with USB (USB->Serial) or Serial connection

Help on Gas geyser suppliers
So the Liter capacity rating on Gas Geysers is the flow per minute 6l - tap 12 - 2taps / Shower 16 - Shower 20 - Shower + tap / bath etc I've got 20Liter units installed for Bathrooms on my house and cottage,only thing that is a bit of a niggle is a bath takes longer to fill up and it takes some adjusting to learn how to work the type of gas geyser playing with the hot water settings (i'm using constant-flow/instant heating/battery ignited) As long as you have gas you won't run out of hot water basically

Help on Gas geyser suppliers
26Lt seems a bit excessive,you running 3xshowers at once?๐ 20Liter + install should go around 12k

Usage not making sense
As mentioned above,there's an inherent leech of inverter on batteries. Also some models of inverters have a PF lower than 1,so 10-20% extra draw from source for providing power

You've tried PBMSTools?

12 x 315watt JA Mono Solar Panels
Interested if it falls through๐
