  • Post in thread: [SOLD] 12kw Growatt 12000T DMV MPV 🔻 Sold

    Biggest enjoyment out of the 12000t compared to the 6000t was the ability to handle multiple loads during a surge. With the 6000t I couldn't run the house + have the microwave or coffee maker going "then" the deep well pump kick on. The surge from the deep well pump would trigger the overload.

    I see what you mean, Thank You for explaining that; only other option is to tear everything back down and rebuild with one K9 and leads placed on outside of busbar. Once I get this second battery online and synced with the other I'll run tests and come to a conclusion. Trial and error...and labor ?
