Cheap 4-life

Hi All, Its been more than a year since I started the journey and here's a little update for those that have asked. I've two units...

Yes, how did you upgrade the power electronics on the main board for 240V split phase?

Would you be willing to detail more of how you hacked the inverter? I'm really curious about it.

Holy chit

Right so it will not allow the loads to utilize the battery and the grid simultaneously. For example if the inverter can only possibly...

I think u want a setup similar to mine. It’s sized to only cover constant high loads. When loads rarely exceed my highest constant high...

OK, yup that makes sense. But it wasn’t clear to me if the OP was interested in grid assist to boost the capacity of the inverter and...

Right, so that to me sounds like it is not designed to grid assist. I imagine the threshold is picked to trigger the charger if the...
