IMO EV trucks still have their use, assuming they are reliable. Contractors/subs working in a metro area may be able to get away with the range. I am not sure about stated range on the Cybertruck, but all electric vehicles range is going to vary on conditions/driver much more than a gas...
No way you should knock them down. Two wrongs dont make a right. Wire up his panels to yours, however many you need to make up the difference of lost power and then a little extra to cover labor, pain and suffering.
I have an alternative solution for you....
-Sell the 6000 watt inverter to someone that can get use out of it.
-Sell prius battery to someone that can get use out of it.
-Build 48v DIY battery pack
-Buy 6500watt voltronic-based inverter
Total cost should be pretty low for this solution.
I think with a single car, I would def have a hybrid. But wife and I have two, and we almost always drive the electric. It's nice to always leave the house with a "full tank" every time you get into the car.
I would say what you are missing here is a whole lot of price difference, depending on your needs. Let's take this for example. You want 4000 watts of inverting power, which would pair pretty nicely with 15kwh of battery.
In this case, the difference between a homemade 48v 302ah battery pack...
One interesting thing I found out is that the liniotech version of this inverter is supplied by GSL and not by Luxpowertek... So basically Lux----->GSL----> liniotech
Just remember that doing this will likely destroy your current inverter, possibly your prius battery, almost certainly the 12v battery and the inverter I linked, and will prevent you from option2, which is to sell your stuff and buy a diy battery + correct inverter. Just a fair warning.
I had a 5000es and experimented running things batteryless before I hooked up the battery. With clipping occurring (over 6000 watts of input), it would start my 18000btu mini split, but surpringly, not my tablesaw (1500-1800 watts I think). YMMV.
Started all of that without any trouble and...
I would add that it is probably a good idea to keep at least 5% on the low end just in case the BMS shuts off, that way you have some wiggle room to change a few settings and get it to kick back on.
Sounds about right for capacity. I know you were saying the BMS would reset when you tried to set the capacity to 1216AH, but have you tried to set it to 304? Maybe it might save the setting.
I just wired some money to China for a couple pallets of Qcells. Hopefully I can get my hands on an inverter and a battery here in the next month. I want to do some practice here in VA, because I'm moving to Florida soon and I want to build a badass solar system when I get there :)
Now need, I've read the entire thread you're talking about, but most people I've run into haven't had much issues with the 15k being able to freq shift the micros into action.
I should also probably specify that the difference in price between the dual Sol Ark quote and the iq8 quote was so...
Excuse me sir. Your magnetic fields interacted with our magnetic fields outside of your domecile. We also have reports of your electrons entering our territory. We have fired a warning shot over the bow. Pray we don't unleash the might of the power company armed forces and disconnect your...
I am not 100% on this, but I was under the impression that with solarks, there was a dc/ac ratio for panels that was recommended. You may want to check with solark to make sure its aok to have no dc coupled solar panels.
