  4. Missed this.. DId you get around to ordering? Not sure I am keen at this point.
  5. Already went through that.. 😥 @plonkster I realise there are a lot of variables and you always give an additional view of how/what/why, which all of us in the blue corner really appreciate! Just feels like something that should work.
  6. Yes, I set that up last year sometime. Cable is very short, inverter is next to the board.
  7. Also all of a sudden gotten this twice just as Load shedding kicks in.. no loads to speak of

  11. We currently have a power failure since around 20:00 last night, the batteries went sub 30% this morning for the first time ever. Nothing popped up yet.. sun came out at the perfect time and they are over 40% again

  15. I see a new test report is out: https://batterytestcentre.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Battery-Testing-Report-8-April-2020.pdf At about 1600 cycles (4.5 years) having around 85% usable capacity left and seems to still be going strong while some of the other friends have died along the way.

  17. Two modules picked up 74A (37A x2)
  18. I could, but I have been running it like that for a year. Will there really be a balance issue?
  19. Mine is also not "correct"

  24. I have been live now for a year and according to the data generated 4541kW (4.5 MW sounds better) . My consumption has gone down since the geyser was placed on a timer with the installation, but as you can see the grid usage percentage is low, which was part of the goal, but of course beating loadshedding was the priority

  28. AC or DC symbol, VAC/VDC, or spelled out One of my fuses has VAC, other only has AC symbol on. I bought some Mersen VDC rated fuses from a local shop. https://ep-us.mersen.com/sites/mersen_us/files/DS-HP10M-HelioProtection-Photovoltaic-Fuses-Mersen.pdf
  29. Thanks, worked
  30. My Firmware and VE configure options seem to have disappeared. I checked it seems the two-way communication is enabled.
  31. Funny enough.. this was done on installation.. and it turns out that only 1 fuse out the 6 was a dc fuse. This is what happens when people are left unsupervised and want to complete the job and make due with what they have in a toolbox somewhere. I was pretty livid to say the least. I am still planning on my next approach as on closer inspection 3 out of the 6 fuse holders are AC fuse holders..
