Using propane heat. I don't spend too much time in the winter here. Just head back north to my honeys place. No cooling and that's about to change when the new array and batteries are complete. I see a small mini-split in my future.... Very rural here also but located just 12mi from the county...

The cells are going to be the Eve 280k. Each pack of three will provide about 7.168kwh to the system. Hoping it's good for about 3 days running with inclement weather. My power needs are modest overall. The ground mount will be in a wide open area facing any direction without shading, lucky on...

Your system and mine are similar in size and setup before you do any more expansion. I probably won't get much larger than it is now, small things maybe. I'm completely off grid and am 120v only, like you. No future plans for split phase although I almost went that route. The equipment is all...

Wow...4ms is fast. Extremely fast. I am left wondering whether that is even possible, most equipment has a bit longer duration switchover. Example: My Multiplus has a spec of less than 20ms. No adjustments are possible that I know of. I notice nothing blinking or any behavior to indicate it has...

Here's the screenshot

Yes that was it! I'm feeling back to normal now. Details are back. The SOC as calculated over the past year seems to be very accurate. Like a dumb azz I just didn't think of downloading the config before update and I'm on a new computer the old one has the original config file on it. This...

Ran VEConfigure and apparently when the firmware updated it wiped out the settings and in the inverter section I had to check off to use the Multi for SOC and reenter the battery AH rating. The SOC calculation has been restored to the VRM portal. And is accurately sitting at 100 percent. The...

None of it is "easy" if your not experienced I also have a substantial investment in ground mount hardware for a smaller array of 3.2kw. It's not installed yet but I built another identical one for my son a few years ago. It all really adds up quick on initial outlay but the payback seems to...

Okay When I figure it out I'll report back here what I learn so others have answers also :)

That fixed it Thanks! May I ask one more question if you don't mind? Yesterday I upgraded my controller and had some imbalance going on with my batteries (12v series connected for 24v). I charged each battery separately to full and reconnected everything. Once I get into VEConfigure is there...

Thanks Adam De Lay Kind of figured I need to run VEConfigure but I'll need to install that on my new computer. I did find the temp setting you show in remote console and changed it from C to F. VRM is still reporting in C. :fp2 Edit: I stand corrected. I was in another part of Remote Console...

Been cutting a lot of wood clearing land. Bought a little used Echo CS400 15 years ago. I have literally beaten the snot out of that saw and it just keeps on ticking. Just a tune and clean now and then replace the primer bulb every two years and installed a carb kit about five years ago. Plus...

Have some questions on re-configuring my setup. Paging @sunshine_eggo if available. I Just recently did all the firmware updates to my system. The system consists of a MultiPlus 24v 3000w, Smart Solar 250/100 and a Cerbo S. After the updates finished the system SOC disappeared. Prior to the...

Yes you can easily Connect the load terminals from the Victron to the XT60i input of the Delta2 via an on/off switch. Turn switch on when battery is full. Leave the battery connected to the SCC.
