Hi all My system won't accept my current generator wich is a schults 5 kw unit , my installer says output on the generator is not clean ......i am looking at the 7.5 kw petrol generator Adendorf sells. Has anyone used this generator on victron inverters ? The 7 kw husquavarna is also a option for me. All advice will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Plonkster Came right thank you , landed up being telokm. Set username to telkom unrestricted apn and it now works 100 %

Thanks again for the reply gents, the thing is.....i can access it from my laptop in the house over my wi fi , cant access it from my cell phone or tablet and neither can the people who installed it. Vrm works on all my devices and the data is updated no problem.even my phone and tablet wont open the remote console whilst connected to my wi fi at home. Thanks for the imput so far.

Thanks for the reply Plonkster ! Any advice for the whole lte problem ? Is it settings on the router maybe ? Specific ports that need to be added or opened ? I get the idea that telkom might be seeing it as a hack and therefore blocking it ?

Hi there I hope i am in the right place to ask a question or 2...... My system consisting of a 48 volt 4000 watt multiplus 2 , venus gx , 2 us3000b pylontec and 12 x 3000 mono solar pannels was installed about a month ago. It s running great but i have a couple of questions...... I seem to struggle to get the remote console to work , i have telkom 4g lte running at home to wich the system is connected , on the portal all the info displays and updates but when i want to open the remote console it doesnt , basicaly says it cant connect , is there settings on the rooter that i need to change ? Lte i presume doesn't have a static ip , is this the problem and how do i get around it ? Also , what is the right voltages to charge the battery to , pylontec manual seems to say 53.2 but my installer says victron recomends 52.3 ? Does victron have a support line localy in SA ? Thanks in advance for the help Morne

Morning Jaco A little more info : daily usage on prepaid is about 30 units....i have a gas stove top installes already.would love to convert geyser to solar also but i am scared that i dont have enough space on the roof for that and enough pv pannels for a system. My aim is to start with a system that will immediatly lets me use less eskom power and also gives me a good couple of hours worth of backup when the power fails or eskom load sheds. daily load excluding things like geyser , washing machine and dishwaser should not exeed 1700 watt.i was thinking of either a 3 of 5 kw victron inverter(multipluss) , some lithium batterys and either 6 or 9 300 watt pannels to start with , hopefully that will be in my budget ? any decent installers and retailers in the Rustenburg area ? thabks in advance for al, the help.

Howzit all I am in Rustenburg and realy want to -need to get onto the solar train.....reasons for this is eskom and the great xtate of the grid and the other is to try and save some bucks. I have about r90000-00 to invest in a solar system.What should i be looking at ?any recommended installer in Rustenburg ? Do i go for a victron inverter or will the axpert units do ? All advice will be greatly appreciated ! Have a good night Morne
