    Anyone here watched “Planet of the humans” by Michael Moore?

    I see, rin??? The root of the problem, of all sustainability issues on this planet in fact is obvious to anyone not in denial. There are simply too many people breeding.

    Bulk charging options prior to top balancing

    I didn't study everything in this thread before reply, but I connected the battery cells in series to an all-in-one unit with over-voltage setting protection, fast charged (20A/30A/40A...adjustable on-the-fly), however fast you want to go) to a bulk-charge limit set just below the max safe...

    One way to check your firmware version is to connect your Growatt to a PC/laptop via USB and run the free PVKeeper 2.0 software that comes packaged with the unit on a mini-CD. There it displays your 'CPU Version'. It may get a little fussy to set up the COM port drivers. If you can get it to...
