eugenedp Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Does anyone possibly have any info on when Solar Assistant's support of Luxpower inverters will improve? At the moment it is very limited. I am still learning so I am playing around with settings often and I have to switch to the Luxpower Device monitor software everytime I want to chance anything. It works well for monitoring though. I am on the latest firmware - 2023-08-16. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best would be to message the SolarAssistant dev and hear from them what their roadmap looks like - they can sometimes be very quick to respond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenedp Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 Thanks, I did not know how to get a hold of them but I just checked again and found the "contact us" link at the bottom of their website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eugenedp Posted November 7, 2023 Author Share Posted November 7, 2023 Yes, they replied to me and suggested that I join the beta program, and I did. Lots of new things in the pipeline. I have not tested yet, will do soon and report back. mzezman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eugenedp Posted December 2, 2023 Author Share Posted December 2, 2023 After updating to the latest beta version of the software, I am now seeing a lot of the settings that were previously missing - thanks devs. Not all settings yet, but at least enough to keep me busy and it feels like we are getting somewhere.

eugenedp Posted December 24, 2023 Author Share Posted December 24, 2023 Finally, after 8 months I have my panels up. And of course, just as I was finishing the connections it started raining. And yes, it took me 8 months to build the rack - I work slowly jumper and mzezman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eugenedp Posted December 24, 2023 Author Share Posted December 24, 2023 Thank you - and I have seen the magic already. Even during the thunderstorm - only a little magic, but something happened. Hope for some sunshine tomorrow. Merry Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen the Automation functionality but am too "scared" to try it out I would like to see feedback from others first as to how they try to use this feature.

I am on the latest beta(yesterday) but it must not be available for Luxpower inverters yet. Not a trainsmash - looks like some settings to play with, but nothing I desperately need right now. mzezman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
