Arandoza Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Also curious if they work with the Axpert’s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris-R Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 Hi @Heinds, I know for a fact that the B4850 Dyness battery packs works with Axpert, Infini and Goodwe models. They have been thoroughly tested with these models over the last year and I was involved with some of the testing on the Axpert units. They are very similar to the Pylontech batteries, with most of the changes being in the BMS System. Unfortunately there is nobody in RSA bringing them into RSA in bulk quantities and are therefore a little more expensive than the pylontech's. As for the Dyness Powerbox - ... I cannot for sure say that it has been tested and has never seen it working myself. I have just send an email to Dyness and will let you know soonest.

Mike Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 i use the Dyness with SMA, Victron , Goodwe and the Synaps. they work well, look good and so on, my ast one i used 2 x 10kw powerwalls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 I must add, that the owners of Dyness are actually ex members of pylontech, that went in another direction, you can see the visible similarity inside the units. The Dyness i find are actually cheaper than the pylons and have slightly higher output for eg. the pylon 3.4 = dyness 3.6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His got his location on the website. Google streetview shows what appears to be a small office block in a larger residential area. The business didn't exist in 2015 though... Whois info is fully redacted. Website is hosted with Xneelo (aka Hetzner), but seems the server is owned by kwikwap, small website kinda gig. Google finds some gumtree ads for 4x4 solar stuff. So it seems like a legit (small?) solar shop... but we learned with the Leoch debacle that sometimes an otherwise-reputable shop can be swindled. Perhaps best to call them and ask.

Mike Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Okay, my importer has them on his database, small shop with no stock. he has queried the model of selling at below cost incl of VAT......the reply is we make money from selling the panels....i would be carefull in dealing or should i say handing over any funds before the product is in front of you, as my distributor does not send shipments out before payment in full from supplier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fazil Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Local agent for Dyness that I have procured few units from is DC Rebel. Contact Dan Botha and check him on FB. I have these batteries with Axperts running at various sites. seems like a good buy. Offices based in Midrand business Park (https://www.dcrebel.co.za/) Dan is very helpful.

The Dyness i find are actually cheaper than the pylons and have slightly higher output for eg. the pylon 3.4 = dyness 3.6 Mike, good morning i have just installed a Victron Easysolar 5kVA, 12 x 335W panels and a Dyness 9.6kWh power box. I am having an issue with the battery monitor in the colour control. When i use the Dyness battery monitor the power going to and from the battery is very low (eg Grid 1023W AC loads 750W and batteries 15W). If i change to the Victron battery monitor the figures are more realistic looking ie power in almost equals sum of power to loads and batteries. Are you able to offer some assistance in the setup of the batteries and associated Victron parameters? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
