Mike, have you bothered using the Infinisolar inverters again?

Nope, there has been a few more failures here by the coast or within a 5km radius. corrosion on components from moisture drawn in by the fans if installed in a garage....... as they are IP20 casings. so have decided to use the replus and goodwe as ip65 units and if i must an Imeon in a cabinet so it runs hotter to avoid moisture

    No I use to look at lots of settings but Ed has ported them all to SolarMon/SolarWeb and so I have switched the LCD off. I use to have it backlight all the time and on specific useful menus. Daniel, m

Just to make sure, I think you mentioned it earlier or somewhere else, those are not stack-able (parallel output on a single phase), right? Thx

The websites of those manufacturers are hard to navigate - easier to ask someone who does know them.

not the Goodwe or Replus, there i split the main DB to however many inverters on their own circuits.

Mike, so you use Replus but  not Infinisolar? the 3kw Replus has identical specs to the infini 3kw plus and the replus is 2k cheaper in the power store. 

Would be interested in your input?

Haggers, No i use the Goodwe 5048ES hybrid - it's a 5kw IP65 based unit, no fans nothing fancy like a screen, just a box with flashing lights and wireless, thats what i use and to know whats happening internaly i use an android phone wheni am out and when at home i have 2 x R450 7inch tablets - one in the office other in the bedroom and i can see all.

I would not consider personally using any inverter now that is not IP65 rated unless away from the seaside
