  • Post in thread: EG4 6000XP Grid Feed

    There has been no suggestion -- it's just a hard fact. 6000XP can't back-feed the grid. No one knows the details of your setup, no doubt what you want to accomplish is possible, but the 6000XP isn't going to be part of feeding anything back to the grid.
  • Post in thread: Slow and steady build -- it's online! Question on 2nd battery disappearing?

    So I know this isn't going to have any juicy info or anything ground breaking, but I'm too excited to not share. Got all 6000xp and 2 EG4 indoor batteries about a week ago. Slow and steady build, got them in place, got my PV wires run (but panels arent setup), all the heavy cabling done...
  • Post in thread: Slow and steady build -- it's online! Question on 2nd battery disappearing?

    Update: adding to the weirdness - when I sign in on my phone to the monitoring portal, it does indeed show 2 batteries in parallel with the correct total capacity. (screen shot attached) Thoughts on why the portal on my desktop PC only shows 1, but the phone app shows correct (2)? Thanks!
  • Post in thread: 6000XP AC (Grid) charge setting not behaving as expected?

    Got my system up and running, zero real issues so far, everything is running smooth from charging the car, to powering house basics :) I have my 6000xp with grid AC input available, no need for super rapid charging, 30A breaker, 8AWG wire, the setting: "AC Charge Battery Current(A)" had a...
  • Post in thread: Do you keep a spare solar panel?

    I really only wanted 10 panels for my planned ground mount system, however the prices were just too good I figured I'd get 20 because I know I'll want to expand/tinker more later. (plus the 6000xp supports 2 input strings) I should have room for another 8 or 9 panels on a 2nd string, but they...
  • Post in thread: EG4 Indoor/6000XP -- 5% difference in SOC during use? but similar voltages?

    yes - setup per the manual from section 5.2 "additional configurations". They use the 18kpv unit as an example, but it's the same for 6000xp (only with a single set of +/- terminals on the inverter. no performance issues, or warnings, or really any issues except noticing in the data/stats...
  • Post in thread: 6000XP AC (Grid) charge setting not behaving as expected?

    screen shot attached with highlighted area -- SOC control is separate and when I tested that it works as expected, kicks on at 20% and will go until 50%, no issues there. the value of 24 in the box is applied no matter if it auto charges itself at 20% or if you hit the quick charge button...
  • Post in thread: psa: Chargeverter is LOUD

    I see the grey/black chargeverter is listed as pre-order on Signature Solar's website, but there are other sites that have the (older?) yellow box model in stock and ready to ship. Is there some new features or build of it with the new grey color pre order model? I only have my eye on one...
