Interested in the 60 150s if you want to split it up....

Indeed. Joking. But I wish there was that function.....

Certain fungus can work like ctl alt del for wetware

Yeah, like a little hole you push a pin in to set everything back to original firmware. Could have used that a couple months ago when everything was so bricked (in a pro) that all insight selections, including restore defaults, was greyed out. In the end I believe it was BECAUSE I was using an...

Do they mars ground their systems with marsing rods?

Wetware reflash.....

For off-grid, meant to say.

It's my understanding that xwpro will work fine with the most recent firmware updates, both for the inverter and insight. Xw+ is a different story.

Just set the xw and the mppt to the bulk/absorb/float that sok recommends. Xanbus terminated? How is the insight powered? Keep trying? I recall that last one worked for some people. After you upgrade both insight and xw firmware, you will want to restore defaults and reset the grid codes.

Charge controllers? Schneider? Generator?

May burning for me today. Probably could have made it fine with the Mitsubishi hp, but it rained an inch and the roof is a little leaky, so I wanted to dry it out a bit.

Isn't that all it's doing in terms of a pge interaction? I'm not familiar with the proposed equipment, I must admit.

I don't think one needs to tell pge that they plug in a battery charger and charge batteries.

3V could pull a lot of current with the primary resistance being the thick cables we all tend to use. I don't know if it is enough to maintain a plasma across the distance of the gap in these non-T fuses though. Seems like there needed to be some sort of flammable material already present when...

Maybe it is agitated with the presence of two xwpros in a nearby building....

It's a current model Breville air-fryer. I could understand some pulsing with a crummy pid in on-off mode for temp regulation when at/near temp, but the pulsing during warm up is poor design in my opinion. I wonder if a 240V European model would cause the same audible effect from the XW...

I get that the load is resistive, but the sound from the xw is quite pronounced, and I'm worried that it's causing excessive wear to the inverter. Should I not worry? It's an 1800W unit, and even pulses on heat-up, which I think is silly. It's stated it's for more even heat, which could have...

Yeah I'm guessing the demand is a big part of it. The end game is the buffer tank, probably a 100-300gal poly tank with insulation all around it. I'd heat it with these two panels, a chofu wood burner, and dump load from main pv system. I have the sr548 controller that should be able to...

And I just don't understand why pv direct pump controllers are so expensive. I have a sunpumps one on my spring, but that drives a Dankoff pump to quite high head, and has lots of settings and float switch options.

Thanks OZ, the most worrisome thing about that pump is that it seems too cheap for the specs. Otherwise, I've read that motors can get fried in my application by spinning too fast with too high V, or the attempted current distribution when the light is low and the pump just barely able to run...

So, I heat my stock tank with two parallel thermal panels. Manually plug in an ac pump to an extension cord each day. I bought a kit to control it automatically with a few T probes. It has a horrible manual, but should have the ability to heat an aux tank, so I can overheat it and then heat...

I'd be interested in the pdp if you ever decide to part it up and ship to CA....

Perhaps your last trick works because the mppt V reading on the battery side is a little different than the xw battery reading?

Being in so cal helps them in the solar thermal department.... considerably.

Likely not going to find the pv to do it dc direct for $400.... maybe a whole old stack from a decomissioned syestem from craigslist or the like? Anyway, the op will have to put in some work, likely both initially and ongoing, to have soaking water after the sun goes down. You can get ghetto...

I thought insight home/facility was for xwpro, and the gateway for xw+. My + has been fine with the gateway for five years. Just changed some settings and it worked.

While sunshine eggo is not wrong, let me offer an alternative scenario. A couple of years ago, a neighbor offered up two solar thermal panels. Not evacuated tube, just the copper pipes with fins in a box with glass. I got them home and amazingly they didn't leak. A year before, we bought a...

So, if you were charging with just L1 and L2, and never even connected the N, it would charge fine, but you'd lose all 120V circuits on pass through during the charge, or would the internal wizards throw a fit?

To make sure I'm getting what you're saying @GXMnow , if you had a G N bond upstream (in a taking energy from the grid sense) of the AC1 terminals, this bond would not exist for the system when powering from the grid? I don't have any grid connection, but instead rely on the N G bond internal to...

Try to select a shipping option....

If your neutrals are connected throughout the system, why not just one bond full time and leave it at that?

Bummer I had some cart items.....

I just confirmed with these two inverters that the load lines do indeed need to be bridged for both to go into invert mode. Strangely, independently on, I had calibrated the invert V of each to within 0.5V. Now, bridged, they are about 1V out of 240 off. I should re-confirm the independent...

When I paralleled, there was no indication either of the slave data being agglomerated in the primary, which is sort of how I was figuring it should work. I also know that the pc software has been buggy all along for other reasons as well. I've just been a little hesitant to plug the master...
