I have 20 400w (8kw) CS1U panels. vmp 44.1 imp 9.08 MPP1 is 6S east facing (2.4kw) which regularly hits 90% or higher I have even seen it hits 2.5kw a few times. MPP2 is 7S2P (5.6kw) south facing which never gets more than 80% and I can't figure out why.

Can’t wait to try it.

My solar water heater is a close loop system. It's not connected directly to my house solar system. What it has is an element for backup use incase there is no solar. I basically make the switch for the element smart so I can add it to HA. I made a simple automation that turns on the switch when...

I used both. Although I'm not sure if you mean using HA directly. I'm using SA with MQTT to HA so I can do automations like turning on my solar water heater backup switch when my batteries are full and there is excess solar.

Hopefully he sort this out soon.

Would be awesome if they added support for solar charge controllers. They added support for the Victron smart shunt so I don't see why they can't do the same with the Victron SCC and others.

Yeah I do.

I wonder what’s causing this issue and for now I’m using a Victron smart shunt until it’s sorted out.

I’ll give this a test soon.

I had tested your code a few weeks ago and it worked great! I actually modified it a bit and added the battery voltage, current and SOC. After a few hours tho it stop working same as it's doing now with solar assistant and I figured it has something to do with the JK USB to RS485 adapter. Can't...

Not that I know of but it took only 10 days to get mines from Aliexpress.

I'm the one that provided solar assistant with the JK BMS setup picture that's posted here. https://solar-assistant.io/help/battery/jk-bms From my testing the USB to RS485 dongle from JK seems to be very inconsistent. I'll give the USB to TTL a try.

That's basically the set up I have now. Though they are both parallel.

I have 20 Canadian CS1U-400 solar panels for a total of 8kw and a Deye 8kw all in one unit. This is solar setup is at my vacation/rental property in another country which I will be visiting in two weeks. For the strings, I did 6p on the back of the house (east) for a total of 2.4kw and 7s2p on...

Support as been added in the new Beta! unfortunately I won't be able to test it until the 25th.
