Wrong. A registered agent is just that: a person designated by the company to receive and transmit official notices, lawsuits, etc. A registered agent very often has nothing whatsoever to do with running and/or owning the company. Hell, I’ve been retained in the past as a registered agent for...

Where do you get that? He said he heard popping, called SS, and THEY ultimately asked HIM to open it up and check for ground screws possibly being missing.

Press 2 for Gibberish.

Funny how we can read the same words and draw different conclusions. After stating his determination to make this product a success with good support, he literally said if you do run into a support problem with EG4/SS, “feel free to let Luxpower know. Luxpower won't pretend to be blind or deaf.”...

Another price drop. Eve 280 Grade A v3 now $95-$105; Grade A 304s are down to $99-$109. I’m getting close to sending the flatbed over there to load up.

I don’t even have a spam folder; the dog ate it. Again.

Jesus, dude. First rule when you’re in a hole, is stop digging. Y’all effed up at every turn. It’s clear to everyone reading this train wreck of a thread. From the beginning, and now you keep making it worse. Take the L. Quit making excuses. Apologize to the man, with no more of your “buts”...

Maybe the dingo ate your labels.

Second Rule of Holes: You can dig a deeper one if someone else helps.

“I’m spending tens of millions of dollars on a utility-scale power project. Think I’ll outsource its design to JoeDoesSolar on a message board.”

Continuous 275 vs max 250. 5 ms vs <20

Def a DIY project. Throwing my multi tester and Kleins in the bag now; should have it wrapped up and ready to throw the switch by next weekend.

Screenshot of an article suggesting otherwise.

On paper, the 18pv looks a little better than the Solark. I really like the fact that its MPPTs will accept up to 600 volts, which allows longer strings and smaller conductor. To me, the output differences are a wash; Solark has a 3 KW advantage in AC from PV, but the 18pv has a 3 KW advantage...

Yeah. Except that food and housing costs (as reflected by rental rates) ARE included in the CPI-U numbers reported. In fact, reports this year have noted that housing costs have been a major part of the costs in 2023. Oh, and for those people in this thread saying that the numbers are fudged...

Or, hypothetically, you might luck into an 800A panelboard that’s being replaced and scrapped, that dates to the 1960s when they didn’t scrimp on copper, from which you might harvest three copper busses 1/4” thick by 2-1/2” wide and about six feet long, that are already drilled and tapped on 1”...

18 KW. Problem solved. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Rheem-Performance-18-kW-Self-Modulating-3-51-GPM-Tankless-Electric-Water-Heater-RETEX-18/300800620

Prices continue to tumble. 18650 is now offering Eve 280k Grade A v3 for $105-115, depending on quantity. Grade A 304s are at $115-$125.

Oh, I’m curious too. But I’d want to hear all the calls, not just one selected in isolation. But I don’t think it’s fair to ask anyone for a blanket release unless he/she gets to review the calls first, to make sure there’s no confidential info (e.g. credit card info) on them. Besides, those...

No it’s not. Trying to import solar panels from China would be a royal PITA and you’d have to jump through hoops and deal with mind-numbing regulations, but it’s not illegal at all. The maximum tariffs are about 240% for anti-dumping and another 15% for countervailing. But most large...

In this and other posts, you seem to imply that your branded version is different in some respects than the version Luxpower is sending out. Or are you just saying that your input led to improvements that are now incorporated into latest production runs of all Luxpower units. If your model has...

I predict your future will include a scene in which you open a 12-step meeting by saying “My name is Tim and I’m a prismaticaholic” ?

I’m getting a suspicion that Mike Holt has infiltrated this website and is posting under the alias @pvgirl ; she knows her stuff. ?

Tankless water heater.

PV conductors inside are supposed to be in metal conduit. That looks like pvc.

Gee, I wonder if reading the OP’s well-written posts in this thread and looking up your service history on this unit might offer a clue. ??‍♂️

No kidding.

Good morning James. Would you care to reply to some questions I asked earlier in this thread? For quick reference, this was my post: “In this and other posts, you seem to imply that your branded version is different in some respects than the version Luxpower is sending out. Or are you just...

This Reuters article from March seems to disagree with you. https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/us-solar-panel-imports-china-grow-alleviating-gridlock-officials-say-2023-03-06/
