Thanks man - what is powering your 12VDC power supply? Or did you modify an existing power supply to power the fans?

Hi Guys, Coming to the party here - I'd like to install some fans on my Sunsynk 5kw inverter and Sunsynk Battery. Thinking of using PC fans fitted with a filter to prevent dust build up. Has anyone done this? Anyone know easiest way to wire the fans?

Hi all, Newbie here and I was hoping for some advise please - I read through some of the threads and I've completely confused my self... I am getting a 5kw Sunsynk Inverter installed with a 5kw Sunsynk Battery and 8 panels. The previous owner had an old resistor type inverter installed years ago and the house has already been split between essential and non-essential. I would like to understand if the following is possible please: the essentials will be fed through the inverter; the non-essentials will not be fed through the inverter; An example of a day: it is 11am and the batteries are fully charged the panels are producing 500W essentials are drawing 150W - so panels feed 150W to essentials non-essentials are drawing 500W inverter takes the "spare" balance of 350W of solar power and feeds that to non-essentials, reducing the amount drawn from Eskom for non-essentials down to 150W Would the above be possible, and if so, does anyone know what settings I would need to have enabled? If the above is possible, on one of the threads, I saw that the risk of the above is that at night the batteries will power the non-essentials as well. So is there no way to have it that the non-essentials will never use battery power and will only use Eskom (if there is power) and solar (to the extent that there is surplus solar after charging batteries and running essentials - and so where there is load shedding and not enough excess solar, then the non-essentials will be turned off? Would really appreciate the help guys! Thanks,
