    I’ve been reading this post and I have to say I commend all the great members here trying to help this person out. It takes a lot more time and effort to troubleshoot something that’s not right in front of you than say a simple design question. Let alone the patience needed for dealing with less...

    Well it took 599 posts but it looks like you’ll get your full refund. What’s that saying a squeaky wheel gets the grease. Lol.

    Terrible Signature Solar / EG4 18Kpv Experience - Returning and Replaced with Sol-Ark 15k

    What’s really sad is members saying if you have problems and not getting any response, to post your issue here and that draws attention which will get some kind of response from someone at SS.

    That is just hard to believe that you didn’t get a full 100% refund. They just keep shooting themselves in the foot over and over.

    You can sand (sander) and etch (sand blast) tempered glass so I’m thinking that’s how it was done.

    Are those Polaris connectors/taps? Are the compression screws just as good as a crimped lug?

    If you don’t have a meter just turn on something for each circuit. If it comes on it’s good.

    EG4 Chargeverter

    I’m glad you appreciate her belittling members because they don’t know a lot about solar and that they can’t “search” and find the answer they are looking for. I search forever and can’t find the answer but another member posts it like it’s no big deal. It frustrates me but I keep trying.

    EG4 Chargeverter

    I’m sure every member would like to say it but don’t want the hassles. That would make history with the longest thread on this forum all to someone that likes hearing themselves bit.. instead of good diy info helping others out which is what this forum is all about.

    $200-$350 something around there. Forgot to say 48v. If it was long term I would buy the Victron. I have 3 48v 100ah batteries and a stand alone battery charger.
