  1. MNK1234 posted a topic in Inverters
    Hi Has anyone tried the new Deye cloud app and more specifically the AI “copilot” that replaces the time of use settings? Apparently the AI is meant to optimise usage to ensure max cost savings.
  2. Hi I have a 3-phase supply from Eskom, and currently have the inverter on a single phase. This means that my load is not properly balanced with more load on the phase with the inverter. With the requirement to register as an SSEG becoming seemingly more important, will this be an issue? 1. Is SSEG registration needed? What are the consequences of not registering? 2. Would I need a 3-phase inverter (or one inverter per phase) or am I fine having only one phase backed-up?
  3. Hi All, My solar geyser recently packed up. I am debating whether to replace it with another solar geyser or add more panels to my solar power system and run a normal electric geyser. I should have enough capacity to run the electric geyser during the day through my solar system. What's a better option?
  4. Hi has anyone used SA solar suppliers? Their prices seem almost too good to be true https://sasolarsuppliers.co.za/?product_cat=lithium-ion-batteries
  5. Hi I’ve seen felicity solar batteries advertised that seems quite cheap for the size. Anyone tried them? https://www.solarwaysuppliers.co.za/product/felicity-solar-8-7kwh-li-ion-battery/
  6. The rates Isc or norma operating current?
  7. Hi I have a 5kWh sunsynk inverter and would like to upgrade my battery to 5-10kWh. Which is the best value battery in the market? I have seen massive swings in prices from the quote I've received.
  8. Yes with the battery still having capacity
  9. On my 5kW Sunsynk the max MPPT current is shown to be 13A
  10. So the MPPT will almost manage the current? Which may mean that the performance on the 540W panel will go down to keep the current within range of the inverter?
  11. So when will the current tend to ward the short circuit current?
  12. Short circuit current and operating current is higher than the rated 13A of the inverter
  13. Sorry short circuit current
  14. And your 540W panels with the 5kW sunsynk work fine? We have 4 x540panels so unlikely to exceed the voltage
  15. So the MPPT current is 13A, and the open circuit current of the panels is just more than 13A.
