My problem is that the room inside the house where the mains/meter/panel are is too small to add the inverter & batteries. My hope was to find a way to have the inverter & batteries 15' away and still manage to have a grid-tie connection without having to rewire everything.

I was wondering if someone managed to tinker with the EcoFlow PS battery cable to connect to a 48V battery. I know you can connect to a Delta Pro or Delta 2/Max, but the cable looks like an XT-60 with 6 extra pins. Instead of overpaying for a Delta Pro, I was thinking maybe I could just buy a...

Hello, I am thinking of buying a hybrid inverter in order to connect three strings (two half roofs and one flat garage) of around 5-8kW solar. Goal would be to use the electricity also for water & heating. Would it also be possible to install micro-grid inverters connected to smaller solar...

I really like the potential of LTO chemistry and was thinking of buying a battery with BMS preconfigured, e.g. like battleborn. But from what I found nobody is making them. Also for portable power stations, only very are using LFP. What I wanted to use them was for my lawn mower, so around...

Aha, that could explain why my kilowatt meter (rated for 3.5kW) went dark. Are you certain that a 2.2kW lawn mower can have a surge of 4-10x? The fuses I have are 16A x 230V so around 3.7kW, max 25A x 230V = 5.7kW This is a small garden house, I need to check, but I think the fuses are more 16A...

I think I will wait until I find a smart grid-tie inverter with amperage control which can directly smart manage the batteries since: "grid tie inverter with power limiter" - is too complex for me since the mains are not so easily accessible "adjustable constant current DC to DC power supply" -...

I am looking for a Grid Tie Inverter Load Controllable, preferably a branded one and not a cheap one, which should have a battery mode management for LiFePO4 (e.g. 24V) to reduce my baseload. The post is linked to battery system with power output control for maximizing self consumption bypassing...

I have 4 panels of 570W with a Voc of 51 V, so most probably (unless I should consider the Vmpp???) linking 3 in series will exceed the 150V of the EF Delta Pro needed to get a possible max of 1600W. If I would use a single phase grid-tie inverter, e.g. Hoymiles HMS-2000-4T (4 MPPTs max 2000W)...

I am looking to add a grid tie battery system to fully utilize my solar production. I have a couple of 80W sunpower panels hanged on my balcony, and daily I can produce a maximum of 0.6kWh during summer by feeding around 130W back into the grid via a grid tie inverter. What I want is to find a...

I just saw this thread https://diysolarforum.com/threads/ecoflow-delta-pro-solar-array-max-voltage-question.55556/ and I was afraid that I could blow the MPPT if I overload the voltage. I could use a 5th smaller panel and connect in series with the 2 Voc 51V panels, while the other 2 panels can...

I want to install a hybrid inverter starting with 10 up to 30 kW of solar. The issue is that I could install it in the heating room, which is around 15 feet away from mains power/ meter / main panel (all of them are in a small room where I do not have enough space to install inverter + batteries...

Ok, I will do some tests and post later some numbers. Another bypass would be to see around which temperature starts getting close-ish to the 150V, add a couple of degrees to that value, and have an automation like if temp drops below x, then shut down the Delta Pro 2. This should be enabled...

Thank you DThames for your solutions. This is exactly wahat I wanted to know. Solution 1. Output controlled but not limited: Should be the cheapest way to reducing your "base" load Solution 2. Output limited but not controlled It has some disadvantages: Don't Buy a SOLAR Grid Tie inverter with...
