  1. Hi all. I've got a Luxpower 5Kw SNA inverter with a Shoto Battery installed since last year. Yesterday there was a thunderstorm, and at one point during a sharp bolt of thunder the Inverter dripped at the DB board. I switched it back on and it's still working fine with solar but its saying battery communication failure. Any idea what the issue could be ?

  6. Dude @mzezmanthank you so much for the above youre a real champ. I was stressing thinking the inverter was the wrong one or something. Will play around with the settings over the next few days and see what works best. Thanks again mate 👍
  7. Hi @mzezman. theres 4 panels connected and it went live late on Wednesday. Yesterday I noticed when there's eskom power the solar output drops to like 60W while grid power is then 400W. However when there's loadshedding then the solar kicks up and gives power of around 400W. This is during the day when not a lot of power is being used except for 2 freezers. The battery level was around 100% mostly as I only had 1 loadshedding outage for 2 hours. See screenshot below I haven't really fiddled with anything on the app

  9. Hi all. I recently added solar panels to my luxpower 5kw inverter. But it seems like I have more power coming from the grid than from solar panels, unless there's loadshedding then the solar panels start producing more power. How do I change this ? Ideally I want more solar power throughout the day and only grid at night?
