Noob to solar: Weird Switching

Featured Replies

Hi All,

Pretty new to this solar and inverter thing. Did my hard study on the manual, and have made some tweaks regarding where the solar load goes etc.

But I do have a question regarding some weird switching. My battery is pretty much sitting at 98% to 99%. During 98% the bluetooth apps is in Line Mode, pulling power from the Solar and Utility if needed. But when the battery reaches 99%, the inverter switches to use the battery only.

Now my question: Is the above normal behaviour because the battery is full?

 

Current Settings:

Output Source Priority: SUB (Solar Utility Battery)

Charger Source Priority: SLB UCB (Solar Energy provides power to load first, and allow for utility to charge battery)


Regards,

Grant

Hi Grant - Just for the sake of answering your question. It depends what inverter and batteries you have matched with each other. Also depends if the batteries have a direct communication connection to the inverter. If you have a Voltronic, older versions have firmware issues that can be resolved.

You're welcome to message me privately and I assist you any way I can.
