I got my Goodwe. I un-boxed it. This thing is a work of art. The build quality of the unit is amazing. Obviously it has not been connected but for the price I am very surprised at the build quality. It is similar or better that the Victron units that I have played with. Very solid. I got a smart meter and a connection device with all the connectors in the box. 

 

It has its own app and its own wifi connection.

 

You can hookup more than one unit on a battery bank as well. As we thought.

 

i dont have the EZ converter.... time to check with them... yep i have 3 goodwe's on one battery bank.

if yours does not have a seal on the cover, open and look at the internal build quality....it will surprise you as well.

I like that yard stick you're using :-P

I never said Victron is bad quality. Just very overpriced for what you get.

I know I know... I'm kidding :-)

I've only heard good things about the Goodwe. And besides, everybody manufactures in China now.

Don't know how familiar you are with the site "Quora", a bit of a social media site but for asking questions. There was a question on there that amounted to "why can't China make good stuff" to which there was a very good answer: It is not that they can't, it's that they are asked not to by the American/European overlords who want to make the most profit.

When it comes to things like these, that are designed in Europe and built by contract to a certain spec, there's really no reason to look down on it :-)

Those Goodwe's are nice! Next step is to get hold of that single 48V battery

So how are you enjoying the Goodwe?

Its not installed yet. I am running a Infini 3Kw at the moment testing some stuff for a client. But I am on the farm at the moment working on a big project. Will install the Goodwe in the new year.

Great inverter. One question how many watts do get feeded back in to grid with the grid limitter in place. On my w/h meter it always show at least 0.30kw/h   

Goodwe App = work of fart (Afrikaans readers apply your minds )

Hi All

So where can one buy a Goodwe 4.6ES for the best price?

Hi I’m trying to connect 2x Bydgoszcz-plus batteries, with a goodwe hybrid bp series!
