    LFP for EV's projected to be less than $56 per kWh within 6 months

    When were these price changes supposed to occur? Will we get to see the benefits of this price reduction

    Hybrid output function?

    I can continue playing with settings to see if I can make that hybrid mode occur. I will be careful about back feeding. I may have to use a different AC source to truly prevent that. my system is not plugged into the standard meter full time though.

    Hybrid output function?

    @Mattb4 I have not been able to create that function yet. I can ask PowMR staff how to though. I am in a whatsapp chat with one. they have been responsive and helpful - far more than i expected.

    Hybrid output function?

    yep. Everything is working. I can test the setting for you this upcoming saturday and will send a pic then. It won't take me long to do that.

    Hybrid output function?

    I didn't have any AC input at the time of this photo. I can get some later this week in other modes. you can see in this mode that the solar PV is charging the battery and also supplying the loads. Basically running in off grid mode.

    Hybrid output function?

    Yep it works. lol

    Test run with a small system first?

    lol. thats funny. everything is working fine. At least for now. I have a quarter of my home's wall circuits and ceiling lights running off the system now. watching it generate right now

    Test run with a small system first?

    It isn't. I did a bunch of tests and realized that I hand the incorrect charge settings activated on the AIO. I was able to get it to charge the battery and will see if the panels charge the batteries properly tomorrow. :fp2 Was a silly error, but all is well. I am still learning what each...

    Test run with a small system first?

    I think my battery just died somehow

    Hybrid output function?

    I have enabled that mode in option 34 and have not seen this icon show up like that. I haven't tried turning it off and on to see if it would change yet either.

    Interesting powmr facts

    what software are you using to connect to the PowMr AIO? Also, how do you 'turn on' the setting that uses PV to charge the battery and powers things in the house at the same time?

    Test run with a small system first?

    @Mattb4 update. at home its not showing as generating in AIO. Open circuit voltage at 156 edit: I am dumb. i took away ac input and it works now. new thread on AIO settings probably good idea

    Test run with a small system first?

    yeah. I will have to figure it out. I get friday afternoons off so I can actually see the panels during the day and see if its doing anything. I was thinking the battery was charging while i was at work and I would come back when no loads were currently being drawn. I will be adding another load...

    Test run with a small system first?

    My battery died last night and its not clear if my solar array is even generating anything. 😓 Well. I know what I will be doing in a few hours when i get home from work. I remember checking the panels before and finding voltage from each of them. I am not sure is going on. there is no way the...

    How to prevent backfeed?

    well, true. unless you step up voltage for the really big loads. I have no idea how efficient a dc to dc converter is. Wait. Maybe that is the case. Just depends on distance away from batteries. If you can cite the batteries right by the heat pump power connection and same with water heater, it...
