This happened last year, but I finally got around to disassembling my burned out LVX6048. It looks like it was a bad soldering job that caused this issue, but I think the battery terminal design is just poorly designed. There is a little daughter board that the battery cables connect to, and...

Kind of silly, but I was nerding out on Solar Assistant today and for a brief moment my EG4 6000EX hit 6kW from my 5.85kW (x18 325w Jinko) array. :p

Anyone know which control board monitors the battery voltage inside the LVX6048? Not sure if I caused it, but after hooking the Lifepower comm hub to test, the battery voltage is all over the place (-2 to +6v). I unhooked the hub to see if that would fix it, but no luck. Right now, my voltage...

So finally getting ready to pull the trigger on the battery for my setup. I was toying with DIY cells, but I am probably going to cave and get a 6 unit server rack battery (~30kwh). My setup is two LVX6048s, each feeding a separate sub panel. They are both hooked up to the main panel for AC...

Probably over thinking this, but here is my situation. Solar on the roof will be 3 rows of 15 panels. I need 5 series of 9 panels. Roof is 26 degrees facing southwest (210 degrees) and there are no shading issues between 9am-5pm (so effectively no shade at all). Simple XR100 iron ridge setup...

Anyone have any leads on some inexpensive wireway troughs? 4x4 would probably be plenty big enough, but I need about 12 feet of it.

Is this AIO a unicorn? The only info I can find is a data sheet. It seems to check all the right boxes for me, but I can find any real-world info on it.

Been playing around with ideas for my (soon to be built?) house. I think I am close on the plan, but the components are still up in the air. Not sure if I can get Growatt grid tie approved with my provider. Any comments welcome. The main grid tied panel will be non-essentials, and the two sub...

I did a search and didn't find much. Does anyone have a good resource for power consumption of items like electric stoves, heaters, heat pumps, etc.? I have all natural gas items right now, so I can't just throw a watt meter on them. Trying to fill out a theoretical energy audit for my next...

I know these are long gone for the most part, but if you happen to have some and are still looking for a solution to the terminals, here is what I did. I got this idea directly from this video, I just took it a little bit further. I started out by striping the heatsinks off the top and...

Just starting out with solar and have so many questions. I have been reading as much as I can and looking for similar setups to emulate, but coming up short on a few questions. I am building a small setup to power my garage off grid with x9 250w panels on the roof feeding a 24V Hybrid LV2424...
