  1. Hi guys, hope you are having a great week I just wanted to find out how possible is it for an inverter to reset AC charge settings I got a luxpower which went to default settings on its own but the battery settings did not change just wondering if anyone experienced it And also how can one maximize on using solar when using a luxpower inverter haven't noticed a difference with 8 panels Regards Tapiwa
  2. For that price for your own peace of mind get a Lux power and a greenrich perfect combo
  3. The voltage is fine that's the range according to panels data sheet it's 1 41vlts you right there I suspect a faulty panel hope not just the thought of removing them all again 😂🙆‍♂️
  4. We got 18 Panels 460W Connected to 2 separate strings one with 10 the other has 8 We got a pre-wired Combiner box with two Isolators INVERTER strings with 10 connected to mppt 1 the other one mppt 3 voltage it's 328 and 300 respectively
  5. Hi there, I got two strings connected facing north 1 string is working fine but the other one doesn't the moment we connect to inverter the string loses voltage what could be the issue here Is it a loose connection or what am confused anyone experienced this before
  6. Hi how do I get a to change this can i get an electrician to do it or I go to Eskom directly

    Hi guys I would like to find out from the experts is it possible to combine two strings facing different direction and make it one from the Combiner box to inverter
  8. Hi everyone, please I would want someone to explain something in lay man terms Max AC current? What it means, what is it for? I noticed a 5kw Deye inverter has max AC current of 25 A of which an 12 kw inverter has max AC current of 27 A Only to find out that an 8kw has something like 36 A all with the same AC continuous pass through of 50 A Thanks Regards Tapiwa

    Thanks for clarifying that it makes sense now

    Hi everyone hope you guys are doing well with all that's going around the world. I got a question I want clarity on assuming that I got an 8kw Inverter with 2 5.5kwh lithium battery Using a 4mm AC cable to supply grid charge does this in any where affect the current with which the battery charges with let's 50Amps since it's using a small cable
  11. The use of diagrams makes it more complicated with the input and output for essential loads you can achieve what you want just allow the Inverter to export power it will feed the excess power to your geyser and stoves
  12. Hi everyone I would like to know if its a good idea to invest in a single phase inverter, whilst you got a 3 phase on your property. My problem is how would one feed the excess power assuming your panels are producing extra when your geyser and stoves are connected on a different phase how does it work? Thanks in advance
  13. HI there you can send me your email we are happy to help
  14. Personally I think Hubble has been marketed better as compared to green rich I prefer the later
  15. Hi guys have a problem with an installation everything seems normal up until grid power comes on it cause the earth leakage to trip had an electrician come in to check the circuits that seems OK, but still experiencing power trips when power comes in just after loading shedding Can anyone elaborate may be you encountered a similar problem Thanks in advance
  16. Hi everyone happy festive season, am looking at solution for loading shading have a small load just a 3 bedroom with a lounge of which I love to have my fridge on My plan was to start with 550watts Canadian solar panels, 5kw Lux power inverter and 4.8kwh lithium ion battery can this work for us
