I personally empathize with SS… I own two businesses and in my experience the public has a short fuse these days. They also refuse to do their own research. And with this industry being fairly new to the general consumer many of the complaints and questions are just due to the lack of...
My monster system is done on the DC side… gotta upgrade my service to 200 amps and put in the transfer switch with a friend that’s a great electrician.
System components detail: 2 x 15k Sol-Ark inverters, 3 EG4 Power Pro batteries, and a rack of EG4 LL batteries as backup. PV is 12 x 400 watt...
Great test... thanks for putting in the time to do that for all of us solar junkies. I love my two 15ks... runs my whole house without any issues. I'm working on setting up a long term, real life, day to day test to compare the 15k to the 18kpv. Working on getting the materials to tweak my...
Have you tried to use the Sol-Ark system sizing tool or the solar panel calculator? I found them very useful. FYI we live in southeastern Louisiana and have the following system that powers our whole house.

Like I said in my post it seems to be hit or miss from what i've seen and talked to other Ecoflow users. Mainly the SHP that was my issue. That and the poor tech support that kept making me start from square one every time I called them. Hard to connect to the higher level of tech support...
I’m definitely going to look into the laws posted I’m a notary public and my sister is an attorney and I will ask her advice on the subject… FYI I’m going off grid living in New Orleans
That makes sense… only one of the batteries started acting up the other two were fine
UPDATE — UPDATE. — UPDATE
Quick update: thanks to Markus_EG4 I think we’ve solved the issue and I have a plan of action.
Two issues came into play
1. With Sol-Ark inverters connected to EG4 Power...
What percentage discount did you get for military? The current price to the general public on Signature Solar's website is $5199 each. Was your pricing including tax and shipping if it applies? I’m trying to understand your numbers. Prices offered to the general public without any discount...
I can relate to that need. That's why I went with 2 Sol-Ark 15k's in parallel... I have 3 EG4 Power Pro batteries as my main battery bank for daily use with a rack of LL V2's for reserve power if needed. Appreciate you sharing. Fun stuff.
I get it everyone wants things to work perfect all the time.... but reality is every mechanical device can fail and Murphy's law says it probably will. How we handle things when they do fail is a separate issue. As long as a company is doing what they can to solve issues and they are listening...
I just got an early Christmas present... can't tell you how happy I am to hear about the coms. And now I feel even more justified in the extra expense for the LL V2's. I'm a hi tech junky and it was only logical to go with the V2's when I new I had eyes on the new power pro
Sig Solar will ship flat rate to a residence $150 and where I live they haven’t charged me tax. Ordered from sovereign because I wanted to go with the Sol-Ark 15k over the 18Kpv after doing my research. I was just showing that it’s not that much difference in price if you’re trying to decide
I think its a case of a company growing faster than they are ready for... I think that the delta pro is a good product but they are trying to add too many new products without truly working out the bugs. Quality control could be the true problem. Several people may get a SHP with no issues and...
thanks 2.5 is what I get using the calculator and the actual battery numbers
and for my rack of 6 EG4 LL V2 batteries (backup or reserve power to my wall batteries) I get 1.9 m ohms using the calculator and the actual numbers from the QC sheet.
Like the others have said the Sol-Ark is designed to handle that situation. As a matter of fact its so smart it can tell when the power from the company is fluctuating and will disconnect form the grid temporarily until it senses the power is stable and will reconnect. I have two 15k's and they...
I'm interested as well.... all in due time. I'm waiting on some materials to do the rebuild the right way. I also have to do some more testing on the full compliment of batteries with my current setup which is working flawlessly so far. I'm just in my first full deep cycle with the rack of EG4...
The internal bus bars are rated at 600A… if you check the manual they suggest using the internal bus bars with systems with up to 5 batteries (3 15Ks in parallel with 5) and then use external bus bar with systems requiring more than 5 batteries.
Just want to give thanks and praise to Sol-Ark tech support. I was having issues with a current overload fault and parallel fault with my two 15Ks. Nothing made sense and I was worried it was something I did in the settings. After 1 hour and 48 minutes of the process if elimination with tech...
Will do… I’ll let you know if there is any issues. I should be finalizing my AC side tomorrow. Electrician should be here tomorrow at 3PM. Can’t wait to run test on my new monster
I have 2 Sol-Ark 15ks in parallel connected to 3 Power Pro batteries and I finally got the AC side done yesterday. My system was running fine on battery only from 10PM last night until around 11:30 AM to day… then the BMS from the batteries started sending incorrect voltage and SOC information...
Thanks I hope those settings work for my LL batteries. Since the last time I communicated with you on this topic my situation has progressed. I now have my two 15Ks connected to 3 Power Pro’s and my 6 LL V2’s after I updated the firmware for the LL V2’s so that they can communicate with the PP...
