July 14, 20251 yr Good day,I have a Victron Easy Solar 2 3000kVA unit for sale. I used it for back up power during loadshedding. Only problem is, the MPPT is not working. Otherwise it works perfect. R6000.Based, Pretoria East.Mornes Edited July 20, 20251 yr by Morne van der Merwe Sold
July 15, 20251 yr Hi @TaliaB am not too familiar with Victron, but just a thought, is one able to use an external MPPT and bypass the internal one and still get this to work as a work-around? Edited July 15, 20251 yr by Moffat

He said just buy Victron MPPT. Then all sorted. I used this unit with a Blunova battery for only backup during loadshedding. Was fortunate to buy a house with a complete solar system. Reason for the sale.Regards

Bought the easysolar inverter and instead of bypassing the mppt integrated into the GX system i replaced the 250/70 mppt with a 150/35 mppt as i don't need all the solar power and the cost of the 250/70 is quite high. The 150/35 is integrated into the gx system and works perfectly as it should.

Takes me to the good old first question all installers and resellers MUST ask a client, "What do you want your system to do or run?". But alas some resellers just look to sell and not give value. Enjoy your new tools.
