  3. I'm a "eppie' in solar systems...Solar:- 6x365 Canadian coupled 3 in series and the 2 rows in parallel. I begin with a us2000b pylontech battery and a 5 kWh Mecer Inverter. My inverter settings according to Mustek Cape Town were not correct although the system worked for +- 5 months. I switch off Escom power before switching on inverter in morning when sufficient energy was obtained from the panels. The panels give enough energy for the house usage but I could not use the geyser - 3 kW element. I heat up water after I switched back to Escom. I was not sure if I could use Escom and Solar simultaneously - reason for switching. I worked outside and by entering the house the Inverter alarm was on and battery at only one LED emmiting + the Alarm. Question:- battery still under quarentee and to whom can I send it for check-up - DO NOT CHARGE. https://powerforum.co.za/topic/2439-pylontech-us2000b-recommended-chargedischarge-parameters/
