Anyone been able to connect their Trophy batteries with their Growatt inverter and/or solar assistant? Which of the 50 LI settings did you use? Which cable combination did you use from battery to inverter? Thank you. Growatt 12k mpv Trophy 100ah

So I’m thinking about making these into a custom bus bar assembly for my solar project. I think they will handle 500amps, lol.

Gently used, 3-4 months. Purchased brand new. Super high efficiency mppt. I can ship. Located in Phoenix AZ.

I have built a solar tracker. I have 9 panels hooked up to a SCC. 3 strings of 3 panels each to one mppt. I want to put 1 string of 3 panels on the tracker. Thoughts? Will this boost production of the total array? Will it still default to the lowest voltage? Thank you

Hello, I purchased a eg4 24k mini split with the pre charged line set from signature solar. It looks like the line set will not be long enough and they do not have or offer a longer line set. I’ll need to make this one longer or purchase a longer pre charged set. Question 1: does anyone have...

First time posting, (be gentle with me) 16 panels 365 watts 40.9 voc 10.65 and 11.6 amps (do not understand these two numbers fully) 250 max volt mppt (Growatt 12k dmv mvp) 4 strings of 4 panels into 2 parallels. So 8 panels total on each parallel. 163.4 volts and 11amps per string And...

We had a big electrical storm here recently. During the storm my system which is currently running my entire house shut down. Waited for the storm to die down and reset/restarted the system. Since then, system has randomly usually after a light switch is turned on, shuts down. Growatt gives me...

Good morning, I have clearance from the tower to install a summer array in our backyard which will increase my solar panel power by 3000-4000 watts depending on which panels I purchase. With these panels my total solar will be 15k-16k. So, I could be pushing 300amps charging? Last summer I...

Looks like a combiner box? How to tell what it is rated for? 4 strings in 2 parallel out but what is the voltage max per string? Thoughts?

Happy Sunday! Question for the group. Will a tempering tank help preheat the water for my main tank? Some details: Tempering tank is a 50 gallon insulated water heater. Garage in Phoenix is averaging 105 degrees this summer. Main tank is heated with solar panels. Bottom element is on solar and...

My wife and I planted a large garden, 35’ x 20’. Thinking about putting 12 or 16 additional panels up and over the garden. Panels could be well spaced apart to allow sun on the garden. I could put each panel on its own pole? Thought, comments? Thank you.

I have an existing 6k solar array married to a Growatt 12k and 6 100ah trophy batteries. Everything is working great….except I’m not charging fast enough and have to lean on the grid every second or third day to top off the batteries. I plan to add 8 panels to the system, which will put me over...

I am ready to build my own battery. I have 100ah trophy batteries I will be paralleling the new battery with. I have a 48 volt system. I need to either get a “Shanghai” bms, what is currently used in the trophy batteries and which I can’t seem to find at usual sources. The other option is to...

Currently testing my system. The only thing running/drawing is the a/c, start at about 1230. Seems odd that the panel power drops up and down in sync with the a/c compressor cycle. Thoughts? Growatt 12k Trophy 100ah batteries x 6 6kw in panels.

Good morning. I’m wiring up my “solar shed”. Creating a sub-panel for critical loads. Sub panel is 40’ away from main. 2x 1.5” pvc conduit under ground to shed in garage. Mains for 80 amp breaker to inverter in one and spliced leads for circuits in the other. 12awg stranded thnn for...

Currently solar assistant is monitoring my inverter and my batteries very well. I have added a Victron CC to my system and was wondering if anyone had a way of including a CC in the mix. I know you can have multiple inverters being monitored, just not seeing any way to read the data from the...

I have a 4 panel 1300 watt array that runs my pool pump exclusively and I have a 16 panel 6000 watt array that runs my inverter which charges my batteries. everything is working great! However, id like to charge the batteries a little faster and have some more available energy during the heat of...

Not sure this has been covered, apologies if it has. I am mounting 6 bifacial panels on a garden pergola. They will be over a white crushed rock walk way about 8’ off the ground, so I’m hoping to get some have from the backside of the panel. The racking structure, which is custom made, will...

Good afternoon. Manual recommends I use #6awg wire for 80amp breaker to the inverter. According to US standards the minimum wire to use for an 80amp breaker is #3awg. Looking at the terminal block on the Growatt and there is no way a #3 will fit into it. I know I saw someone on here “pair” down...

Not able to view data/ charts. Only pulls up when I open on local network? Opens up fine on lap top. Tried rebooting phone… ?

Good morning, I have a Growatt 12k mpv inverter. It has about 5500 watts of solar hooked up to it. Currently it charges my batteries (6 48 volt 100ah) and supplies a critical load sub panel with 220v power. I have a victron 250/100 cc with about 5500 watts hooked up and charging the same...
