I was going on the spec sticker on the invert: Thanks, will double-check on the website. But do agree, it is disappointing seeing that it's much more expensive model

I have 2x LXP-5K Hybrid models now

@Bill Gibbens I had to do the same. My units first started with random errors and eventually started tripping constantly to the point where I had to power them down and switch over to just AC. I now have 2 LXPs and don't have any problems. Just note that the EPS output of the LXP models is lower than the AC output in some models. My LXP models can only do 3KW each in EPS mode whereas on AC I get the full 5KW per unit. But I agree, you will have to replace it! Fixing it postpones the inevitable of them blowing eventually. With mine, on a really hot day, you could see water drops forming on some of the circuits when removing the bottom black part. Both my units were put up in my living room as that was the only possible place so I can't say that humidity was that extreme, after all, I'm in Mossel Bay, and it's generally not humid here. I'm within 600m of the ocean so that might've contributed a bit

Has anybody ever experienced issues with Luxpower SNA5000 and slightly humid conditions? I have 2 in a parallel config. When it’s humid (mostly when raining) my inverters keep tripping, i.e it sounds like a switch going on and off. Eventually after constantly tripping (disconnecting AC and reconnecting) it trips completely and I have to reboot the setup in order to restore power to the house, even though I have a 5kw battery. Happens the entire day until nighttime. One of the solar technicians I’ve dealt with says it’s my battery which I completely disagree with cause it only happens on humid, rainy days… My inverters are both installed in my living room and I live in the Garden Route. If anybody else have the same issues, what did you do? Will the manufacturer replace them under warranty as both are only 3 months old? I feel like returning them and pay the difference to replace them with 2 LXP 5kw models… Extremely dissatisfied
