I agree with EPEVER or EPSOLAR ... Amazon has good prices .. make sure you get the MT-30 remote monitor (its like 30 dollars) ... it will make programming a breeze ... or you can program via your computer .... program through the actual SCC is a huge ass-pain ....

400A ... 😬

I am assuming you are talking about a 12/24 SCC??? If so I would go with 24V and get a panel with the highest voltage your SCC can handle

At 3.27 it won't take long to top balance at all ... might as well wait .. I'm assuming he's not doing one at a time ...

For years i was never a SOL-ARK fan ... I always leaned toward the EG4 side of the house on the major things ... BUT recently we have been using these SOL-ARK 15s for the last 6 months and they have simply made all of our lives easier -- the system is bullet proof ... PLUS more importantly - or...

So the answer is -- YES ... with that said you will now need to back your requirements into the voltage and amperage that you feel that this requires ... meaning -- if you live in South Texas where our days are already in the lower 90's and we literally are starting to run our A/Cs 24/7 .. then...

Thank you for the detailed information -- will follow everything you said ... as for why we wouldn't ship them somewhere -- its very problematic ... the equipment does not "officially" belong to us so we would have to get corporate to put the trailers on the company insurance policy for us to...

So LiFePO4 batteries have a discharge rate of less than 1% per month ... normally we see about 9% per year .... recently we replaced some of the very original CALB 3.2 LiFePO4 batteries that came in those big ugly blue plastic cases where the blue had faded so much it was grey and the solar...

Will tell you with us having multiple DuroStar and DuroMax';s out here -- YOU will be YOUR own warranty department ... best case scenario is take insurance and buy from Amazon ... at least they will basically tell you to scrap it and then send you a new one ... IF you are trying to deal with...

So I searched the forum and did not find anything that i could figure out: We took over an oil-field lease of 200 acres and while doing a site survey they discovered that the previous tenants had left (4) of those DC Solar Trailers (w/o generators) in place. Everything seems to be still...

What do you expect any of those guys to do ... SMA is the manufacturer - they have no idea if these guys actually sold you anything or not ... for all they know you could probably be lying .... but again -- at this point - i would just cancel the whoe thing with the credit card company - send...

OK I'm totally lost -- maybe you answered this but I could not find it ... simply call you CC company and tell them that you did not get the SMA's and they will return your money.... am I missing something here ..???? This happens to me and others 100X a day ... You get a bad vendor -- you...

I agree -- BUT - in this day and age of technology and cheap / reliable parts there is NO reason for these manufacturers NOT to have it ... it literally costs them pennies to incorporate -- and sometimes its nice to have everything talking so you can see issues BEFORE they become BIG ISSUES ...

I posted part of this as a response earlier on another part of this Forum but I thought I would share here ... I got thrown into Solar completely unexpected and had to hit the ground running - and honestly - knew ZERO about solar anything ... Although this is a DIY site for mostly homeowners -...

Actually at this point we have simply became lazy and let everyone else do the heavy lifting ... we have grown out of our - "Hey grab a fire extinguisher and lets see if this will really handle the AMPS it says it does" ... so of course my/our TOP 5 YOUTUBE channels that has literally taken us...
