  2. First of all if I'm posting in the wrong place please excuse me. R50.000 - Full 2nd Hand Solar System Currently Installed. Or make me an offer... Reason I'm selling?, A nasty tree I can do nothing about is casting shade making it very in-efficient to have this system. The system is fully operation and includes EVERYTHING you need except mounting brackets for the panels. Other than that move it, hook it up and you're good to go! As one would expect, there is superficial usage wear and tear. The system is working perfectly well and easily generates 2.3 - 2.5kw It has been installed for approximately 3 years. Infinisolar - 3000kW 220V - Sinewave inverter 12X SFS 250 WP Panels. Deep Cycle Batteries Well looked after 3 years old, excellent condition: 8X Trojan T105 225AH @20Hr Battery Box Included All Cabling included: Hiqh quality Heavy Duty Cables Batteries to Inverter +- 1.5 M from Batteries Solar Panel Cables, Plugs and Wiring DC Fuses and Breakers for batteries and inverter NB! Only available as a whole I'm afraid no parts are available individually. If you are interested please PM me. **EFT Only, POP doesn't count. It's only paid when the money shows in my account**
  3. Hi Wetkit, thank you so much for your answer. What you say about Grid-Tie-Backup makes a lot of sense. Could you please let me know what your power management settings are? I've attached what I have .... bare with me, I'm really trying to learn the quirks of the unit so my questions might sound somewhat stupid. I was in off grid mode today but the inverter didn't kick in the power switched off... I had to do so manually. Thanks!
  4. Hi, I'm in the final process of setting up my infinisolar 3kw+ and would really like to know what settings others are using or recommend. Here is my kit: 250w Panels x 12 Trojan t105's x 8 (48v) Infinisolar 3Kw+ This afternoon I hooked up the infini to the battery bank, solar panels are on the roof but not mounted or connected yet so I'm looking to connect in UPS/Backup mode for now At this stage I'm curious to know what more experienced members would recommend for parameter settings, I've attached a screenshot of what I have and I'm a little confused on a few of them quite frankly. The unit keeps on running the fans every few minutes even though I'm at full float voltage... (there is no load connected at this stage, 1 step at a time) Ac and battery bank connected... 300w power draw even though there is no load applied and batteries are fully charged, is that normal? I can't see what it needs that much power for when theoretically in standby, I'd see this adding up quite considerably over a period of time. The fans also keep on switching on every few minutes, I find this curious as there is no load and the batteries are fully charged I'm really confused what mode to put it in for backup, is it right according to attachment? Battery specs trojan T105, 6V 225ah Absorption charge 7.4 x 8 = 59.2 (can't go higher than 58 it seems) Float Charge 6.6 x 8 = 52.8 Equalize charge 7.75 - Can one equalize with the infinisolar? I'd really appreciate any input... thank you! Greg.

    This unit looks exactly like an infinisolar 3kw+, even the LCD readout is idendical, in fact I'd be willing to bet it's rebranded or vise versa.
