Hello everyone, How are these panels performing? I see they are offering some very good prices on the 480Ws and I am very interested. I obviously want to make sure that they are good quality and hopefully won't crack and break apart in 10 years, because if they do, Canadian Solar would be 'cheaper'. From some research it seems like they are manufactured by Powitt, because it seems like the model numbers are the same on the documentation. Any thoughts on Powitt, and if it worth taking a chance on The Sun Pays. They seem to have been around for ~ 15 years and reviews on Hello Peter and Google are quite good. Being a Toyota driver I am very risk averse, but this kind of savings seem extremely attractive

Awesome thank you!

Thank you. I saw this thread but this is not exactly the same question. If Pylontech tests the design life at 25 degerees, should we aim to run the batteries at 25 degrees, or would it be better for prolonged life if they are run at 15 degrees? From the article I would assume anything between 10 and 40 is 'normal', but I know that this isn't the case and if a battery reaches 40 degrees, its life will be shortened.

Hello everyone, I am using Pylontech UP5000 batteries and are obviously trying to make sure that we treat them 'well' so that they last the longest time possible. The operating temperature is between -10 and +60 degrees Celsius, although the design life is measured at 25 degrees. We all understand that higher temperatures are not good for electronics, and that if you are running the batteries at 45 degrees, they would typically not last as long. Question is, should we aim to keep the batteries as cool as possible (15-20 degrees) to prolong life, or is this also not good for batteries, similar to higher temperatures. Happy to hear your thoughts on this one.

Thank you so much, will check it out.

Thank you, much appreciated, but which interface are you using, the web browser (if so, what URL?) or mobile app (if so which one?)? I am trying SolarMAN02.0 on apple and https://home.solarman.cn/ on browser but my screen is looking different to yours which makes me think I am missing something. I found remaining battery capacity under the device settings online, but I am still not able to see if on the app flow chart or line chart. Other pictures I have seen displays battery SOC on the flow chart and line chart on the mobile app. (examples below, which is what I am unable to find)

Thank you so much, I assumed so. Where can I do this though, I have been through the app a thousand times but can't seem to find it.

Is there a setting that you have to set that shows the SOC on the Solarman app? I can see the SOC under Device\Inverter\Battery, but it isn't showing on the graphs or usage flow.

Hello all, What inverters are you using with the Dyness?
