April 29, 20242 yr Morning all, Solar setup; Growatt 5000ES inverter with an Easy Power 5.1kw/h battery and 6x265w panels connected to Eskom (no export). (Luv to get more panels.) Installed 12/5/2023 My problem is that sometimes the battery goes into "sleep mode" with only 2 green LEDs on instead of 4 at the SOC. On the inverter readout panel the battery indicate 100% charge. Do i need to worry about the 2 green LED's and call out the installer or is the battery just in a "rest" mode? Everything else works 100% and load shedding is something of the past. Keep up the good work and interesting topics. Regards, Dries

It would appear the inverter thinks it is full based on your settings while it is not. Do you use comms between inverter and battery?

As soon as you start charge or discharge it will show the SOC status via the 4x SOC led's 25%,50%,75%,Full. I have installed the same setup you are running great combination. Should you need the Elithuim Easy Power manual pm me with your cell number and i can give you a copy via watsapp. (12.8mb to large to upload here) The led indication status is on page 23. You can post the charge settings as @Scorp007suggested to ensure they are correct. Below installation pics.
