Great feedback, and I agree with your conclusion. Thanks for taking the time to reply...

The product may have potential in the future, but I do not have the time or the money to be someone's guinea pig. The EG4 stuff seems to have a pretty good track record right now; but has not been out there long enough for any long term feedback.

I am looking to upgrade my 24 volt system (Growatt 3K) to get built in split phase. I was leaning towards the EG4 6000XP with an EG4 PowerPro Wall Mount Battery. All the reviews and specs look great. Total cost $5,200 +/-. Then I came across the BatteryEvo Walrus all in a single case for...

>>When wired in parallel, two batteries with 100A BMS can supply 20A. Did you mean 200A (not 20A?) Thanks...

I have a Growatt 3K 24 Volt System that has 4 12v AGM batteries configured S/P I want to upgrade to LITime LifePo Batteries. I can get 24v 100AH 100 amp BMS on sale for $516.71 or 24v 200AH 200 amp BMS for $1,409 My question is the two 24v 100AH with 100amp BMS limited to 100amp draw at...

@benmilner I am 30 minutes away from you. I would be happy to run a Univix unit in place of my Growatt for 30 days are report back to this thread. I am currently running 4 of your 12v AGM batteries in my system as well.

I found that setting and will try it out. Thanks!!

I have a 24v off grid system set up with 200 Amp Hours of AGM batteries connected to 4 - 350 watt panels. (Growatt SPF 3000TL LVM Series) The system is currently running in SOL mode: Solar -> Battery -> Utility. I would really like to system not to charge the batteries from the grid when they...

Please describe your configuration...

Several months ago I watched that video (worst ever) and was able figure out what the key sequences were, of which I do not remember without going through the exercise again. Study the key strokes in the video and it will reset.

Update: sales@watts247.com May 31, 2021, 9:37 PM (13 hours ago) to me Jim, please check that the output is set to 60Hz, very important! If it's 50hz, it will for sure burn up the transformers. Let's start there -------- Jim Graham 10:51 AM (1 minute ago)...

I have a Growatt 3000 LVM hooked up to two 12 volt AGM 250 AH batteries in series for 24 volts. I also have 1400 watts of solar panels connected to it. I have been running in SBU mode with several critical loads on the inverter for several weeks. When running in this mode my TACO heating...

These drawings you provided represent before and after my reconfiguration. I did not test for current on the ground and will recheck this weekend.

I had 3 Arc Fault breakers and 3 GFI breakers. I replaced all 6 breakers with standard breakers and down stream, put GFI outlets on all 6 circuits. I think think this will cover all safety issues. This is how my other homes have been configured as GFI outlets were cheaper than GFI breakers...

Update: I reset my Growatt to factory defaults and made Ian's suggested changes. My settings pre & post reset were identical. While doing this it dawned on me based on Ian's previous comments that my panels might not be creating enough voltage to satisfy the MPPT's requirements. I had...
