October 6, 20223 yr Hi everyone When looking at the output on my inverter, it seems it is drawing power from the batteries even when there is enough solar and utility power is also available? i have looked at every setting there is, but it doesn't seem to make a difference - any ideas on how to fix this?

October 6, 20223 yr Looking at the PV power , it is not enough to supply the load. You have 2.8kw load and only 898W solar power , so it will pull from either Grid or battery, all depending on your settings. If you don't want any battery drain , set your battery voltage a bit higher or set it in SUB mode.

Hi Jaxone That is with eskom and solar both available (grid in red is Eskom, and Solar is Green), and even with both of them available, it still draws from the batteries
