Has anyone managed to purchase one? I see on their site it still says that they are expecting stock Q1 2020. Looks pretty cool, and would be perfect for non highway travel.

I also wondered if I could sync with a cheap pure sinewave inverter and the batteries I already have for my modified sinewave. I have a few tabs open on the subject. Lets see.

Hi everyone, I have recently installed a Hoymiles MI-600 microinverter and two 365W Mono Percium panels from ARTSolar. I still need to align them better, they are ground mounted and not on the roof. I see you can get a DTU for there micro inverters in order to monitor their output and also ensure that you do not export to the grid. Exporting to the grid is a real issue as our base usage when we are not at home is about 100w. But anyway the exporting of power is not my main issue, I would like to get the best alignment for the panels to give me the best power production curve across the daylight hours. So I need the DTU for that. The pricing I have found is more than what the panels cost shipped to Pretoria! https://leroymerlin.co.za/microinverter-data-transmission-unit-ellies-81434955 Do any of you have any cheaper sources for the DTU? Cheap knockoff units form Aliexpress maybe? I have already determined the the communication happens with NRF24 chips, so I might attempt to sniff the communication. On this front I don't think it broadcasts its power production without a DTU on the other side, as the LED flashes differently when paired with a DTU, so it might need a DTU to start transmissions, who knows, but we'll see what I'm able to sniff if I cannot get a cheaper DTU. May the sun be with you!
