So true. It's interesting to see other OEMs pushing firmware updates...
4 MWh SRNE ASF48100U200-H 10kw.
- Thread starter 42OhmsPA
- Start date
Small update. Mini split and electric water heater have been installed. Functioning flawlessly. Not much sun lately but switching to and from grid to battery is completely seamless. Have also been running many many power tools equally without issue.

Does SRNE have a store front? I have been poking around Alibaba and eBay, but all the sellers are third party.

Thanks! I sent SRNE an email asking if they sell to the USA, and they replied "yes"... No other details 
In their defense, they speak English a heck of a lot better than I speak Chinese

I asked yesterday about 10Kw or larger units in parallel and the response was March 2024 release.
I also sent out the request for a 10Kwh or larger inverter in SRNE that was parallel and different supplier than SRNE said they have a 12 Kw unit that can run in parallel split phase. They sent the manual for it and it is supposedly SRNE inverters but I haven't found it yet and no photo exists of it. Specs and manual below. The store is here: https://livefunsolar.en.alibaba.com/productlist.html
Edit, manual upload was too large, I'll get a link. Manual link: https://clouddisk.alibaba.com/file/...sKZ3gdptkJKKo8IRYFI9hF_kZWpnsvNotqjhC&scene=1

I have been playing ping pong with SRNE. They have an aliexpress store front, but there is no mention of DDP shipping. I don't want to get stuck with an extra $200 in taxes. Was just about to pull the trigger, but now I think I am going to sleep on it.

Yeah. This sort of thing is why I just don't buy things this way. Call me old-fashioned or whatever, but....

I noticed their aliexpress store as well. In the end I went with alibaba and had no issues.
I noticed that the SRNE 10K could be had with free shipping for around $1100 with all the Single's day (11/11) discounts at Aliexpress. I was tempted but bought battery cells instead. If someone is looking for the best price for one of these it helps to check for Holiday and various discount periods that Aliexpress offers.
I really would like the 8k version but it never seems to be available. It also would be neat if SRNE (and its re-branders) brought out a 240vAC 6K split phase unit that matches the EG4 unit from Luxpower.

Yeah, I think that is how I want to proceed as well. I just sent them a request. Kind of kicking myself for moving so quickly on the two LVXs last year as I really didn't start using them until July of this year. I only got a megawatt out of one before it blew up and I was fortunate to have a 6000EX to replace it. They work, but neither unit is a long-term solution at this point. Hopefully the SRNE will be a keeper.

Ordered... I think I chatted with 10 different people. They must think I am nuts...

I swear I had ran across somewhere where it was stated it was a SRNE. But couldn't find it later.
If you put up a request on Alibaba, you get about 25 different people trying to sell you something.

I think you'll be very happy. Was it still around $1400?
Oh I was reminded once or twice I was already chatting with a different agent...
Good to know. I never tried that, I've always tried to find the direct storefront.I swear I had ran across somewhere where it was stated it was a SRNE. But couldn't find it later.

I have this really bad temptation to order more charging and inverting capacity as well as cells...
I've really been considering Midnite's Rosie, yesterday AC/DC's Whole Lotta Rosie came across the playlist... I think that's a sign.
I could put the mission critical loads on Rosie - the well pump, food storage, kitchen, septic system and a few lights.
Everything else would stay on the ASF and I'd order an HYP series for a third MPPT...
Hmmm I like that idea. I'd have plenty of AC power.
In other news the ASF continues to perform flawlessly after the random error code. If I get enough sun before the new year I should be able to break 2 MWh before the new year.
I've picked out 2 locations for new arrays, one is SW facing the other would be SE. I want these to be somewhat portable since I plan to sell this place sooner than later...
I should probably hold off on buying anything else since I'll have more power than I know what to do with in a couple months.
Happy Friday, hoping for clear sky's today.

Yep....that's what I'm thinking too.... My two additional/final? panels have gotten 'lost' in shipping...shipper shows no indication...Amazon has extended the delivery date to 1/4 and if they don't show up will refund my money.

$1338 with DDP shipping. What is killing me is the ex-works price (you know, before Uncle Sam, Uncle Xi, and a few other random uncles get their cut) is less than $1k. It must be pretty affordable to setup solar in China.

I have panels all over the place. Pretty much everywhere, but where they belong (on my roof). I have ten 325W laid out on the back patio, six 325w stacked against the wall, eleven 325w in the garage, and a trio of 250w in the garage.
