      off-grid - YES 100% Enphase system controller (load side) - OUT 18K GEN port - IN (I have seen this put amperage out, opposite of what...

      Whats your 18K firmware version during testing?

      Aahhh, the annoying dilemma... I'm traveling, so this will be the short version... Ideally, I'd like the process to be fully automated...

      Sure. I'm offsite, need a few days. From memory, I had ~240V AC L1-L2 at the 18K GEN ports, same on the Enpower Smart Switch out...

      They look like ISA slots not so much because of any relation to "ISA bus/protocols" but its because of a tried-and-tested physical...

      I've seen power flow on my 18K via the GEN port in both ways while Smart Load was disabled. Now it does nothing. Contacts refuse to...

      Thanks - will dig around. Regarding the grid profile, EG4 recommends "CA Rule21 201902 for Outback Radian"...

      I'm seeing ghosts in the machine on FAAB-1919 as well. Multiple "W009: Fan Stuck" messages - they're all spinning - visually inspected...

      This is an example of what it is supposed to look like, when it works. Notice the SOC hitting the mark and the GEN flow "ramps down".

      No 48v charger, yet (it is now on order), but PV input works so the batts are trickled & at 3% at this point. Tested further with...

      quick update - after returning from trip, each battery was at 45.22v +/- .1v and SOC 48%?????? WTF!?! .Obviously nowhere close to 48%...

      no, I have an Enphase AC battery pack that can take in or put out some crazy amperage (exact amount escapes me at this time) at 240v...

      I am traveling for several more days, but itching to get back! I need a solution sooner than later since the EG batts are just sitting...

      Good move with the IQ7s. I'm seeing more integration success using the 7s as opposed to the 8s. I'm way too deep into the 8s at this...

      Idle consumption is very low indeed. Its been a bit over 70 for me, but never over 100W.

      I agree on the idea in principle. If you think about it, each Enphase IQ# AC couples to an existing AC voltage all day long with...

      Do you mind detailing how you got the XW to AC couple? I have tried with the XW Pro with DC batts to Enphase with AC batts and the XW...
