July 9, 20224 yr Good day guys hope all of you are doing well. ive recently installed 4x545w canadian solar panels working with my up5000 pylontech and kodak og 5.48 off grid inverter when the utility os of due to loadshedding the panels are usaully enough to supply loads but when a tap is opened of the whasing machine is on it usually draws about 7 to 8 amps from the battery to supply the loads and then charge it up again.. does that shorten the battery lifespan? And count as a cycle even though Im only draining about 4% when the washing machine is on it puls from the battery ever other minute to keep it going and then it charges it again.. will it damage the batery? I just dont want to ruin the battery any advice will be really appreciated
