    EG4 LifePower4 Lithium Battery 12V 400AH Server Rack Battery New Open Box

    Nice detective work, it's not uncommon for people finding random pictures on the internet. Yeah fishy to the point it feels slimy.

    EG4 LifePower4 Lithium Battery 12V 400AH Server Rack Battery New Open Box

    Count me out, the OP has been in & out checking this thread today and for some reason location remains a cryptic secret. I would have accepted a sorry I'm not near Minnesota, since I have nothing to hide as my location is shown on my profile.

    Not asking for an address, how about a state/city to determine if it's feasible or not

    -SOLD- "Minneapolis MN" BRAND NEW Xantrex FREEDOM XC PRO 3000 12v Power Inverter 3000W +150 Amp Charger w/OPTIONS $895

    Don't be bashful if you are in the Twin Cities metro area ;) even though I know I'm taking a bit of a hit here, I may have a little bit of wiggle room in price for somebody that can put this set up to good use.

    Outback Power, Mohave Inverter and Battery in St. Clair, MI

    That is an awesome deal you have there, I really have no need for it but I still did some research, it would be a 11 hr 39 min (754 miles) road trip and that's just one way. I'm sure I could probably fit it all on the back of our older full-size Tahoe, lol Only if my location was suitable for...

    Is My Inverter Working?

    If you can get your hands on a multi meter that's true RMS see what it reads for voltage with that

    UPDATE on "Run from Signature Solar!!!" NO EVIDENCE - LOCKED

    As I said in the prior thread, SS was only in the thread for PR damage control. It was very obvious as they liked a post suggesting deleting that thread all together only perpetuated the obvious issues they have. Keep in mind, SS acknowledged the order of over 10K. My assumption is since they do...

    Melted Wiring in GSL Battery - Any idea what went wrong here?

    Maybe time to find a different battery /s and sell the replacements if that eases your worries. Or check if your installer pro want to trade those replacements for another brand

    Run from Signature Solar!!!

    The damage control in my opinion is the thread itself, kind of like opening Pandora's box, a few others have chimed in with unsatisfactory prior experiences and others also chimed in suggesting all they're gonna hear is basically the same apologetic SS song and dance word salad. While others are...

    Run from Signature Solar!!!

    PR damage control attempt that is perpetuating the problem becoming self-inflicted. My opinion it was ill advised to even post that offer/comment.

    Run from Signature Solar!!!

    chadwick, myself as a lurker for a year+ on this site prior to registering, you have every reason to be upset and to voice your displeasure within the public venue such as here. And to those that think posts such as this should have "evidential proof approval first" that is a slippery slope. Are...

    most durable inverters

    Personal experience? I searched all your videos and didn't find anything on magnum, no hands on, or comparisons or anything. Still looking for somebody that actually knows of definite hardware changes from models years ago to the same models being built today I do understand they've released a...

    most durable inverters

    Magnum/Johnson? That is news to me, Johnson controls has nothing to do with Sensata. It was basically a Johnson controls / Sensata comparison as to their acquisitions nothing more. Sensata acquired dimensions around 2007 and I believe they acquired magnum someplace around 2014 I have had my...

    most durable inverters

    Sensata is a lot more than power inverters go check out their website they've been around for a long long time. As for the inverter offerings both Vanner and dimensions have been around for decades they're not necessarily in the same market place of home solar. Although both have offerings for...

    most durable inverters

    Along with the magnums from a few years back, another one is built in Minnesota with a long history is Dimension, you can find some of these low frequency inverters well over 20 years plus or older and still working flawlessly. Now they are all under the Sensata Technologies umbrella, still...

    Reduced price a tad This is available for local pick up only in the north metro of Minneapolis Minnesota, I do not have or use digital currency therefore it's a cash sale.

    will i ever get my inverter returned to me

    Signature Solar Maybe needs to start by stopping or at least slowing down the non-stop facebook marketplace ads until they are able to deliver customer service with their current staffing. Makes little sense to continue overwhelming current staffing & capabilities in such a poor manner, if that...

    Hello from the Twin Cities Minnesota, Long time lurker with an addiction

    Yes I have only purchased 12 & 24 volt stuff, always from the used secondary market. Since I have very limited solar opportunities on our lot, never had the intentions go on full-blown 48volt. The set up originally was to be for emergency purposes, "that was my excuse to my bride" but I can...

    Hello from the Twin Cities Minnesota, Long time lurker with an addiction

A little bit about myself, I am retired, I am a hobbyist fascinated with electronics going back over 50 years. It all...
