oh lol right didnt notice the luxpower label at the bottom... I need more coffee

Does anyone know if this is the replacement unit for EG4 6000EX? I was told that the 6000EX is being replaced. If this is the replacement, does anyone know if this new model can be used with the prior models in a parallel configuration? Or has anyone tested whether or not the communication will...

My issue isnt exactly the same. The voltage does fluctuate once the sun goes down between 116V-121V but that is still within the voltage range. I hooked up my other 6KW Growatt inverter and it doesnt have the same issues. I also tested everything with my EG4 inverter and it works as it should...

I have the exact wording "Dear friend: i have already confirmed with the technology that the hole of the battery is 3-5mm and cannot be drilled too deep" i brought these cells to a professional machine shop and at 2.8mm the cells were damaged. I contacted the sales and they said try again and...

I have dealt with Microgreen on the commercial side of things because all my purchases were done via my own company, but from what i have experienced, they are learning and always improving on their service. After sales service is good, they do try to solve your issues in a timely manner. I know...

I hope your cells have no issues because i bought 32 cells from this company and when i opened one of the boxes, 3 cells had welded studs missing on the POS terminals. i was told to get the cells drilled. Long story short.. the sales lady said dont go more than 4mm... at 2.8mm the cells were...

Hey guys, I have a strange problem going on with one of my growatt inverters. So i have 2 growatt 6K split phase units and 1 EG4 6000ex (just for reference). Both Growatt units have solar and are drawing from the same battery bank. Both units have been working issue free for 2 years. Each unit...

I bought a telescopic brush from Walmart 10$ and i use that to take most of the heavy snow off to aid it. I could leave the snow on there and it will melt, however if i want the panels to be more efficient then removing the snow will help generate power faster. I do take my snow blower and clean...

Here is the back side. Still working on the wiring. There is a few things i need to adjust, like a panel or 2 that is not sitting perfect, but ill do that in September. Its been way to hot to do it. Close your eyes to the conduit on top that is not straight. I put it up in winter and i guess in...

No its not move able.. I found that from winter to summer the 30-42deg angle worked best for my location. I did some testing with 2 smaller arrays before going all in on this one. Will post a photo of the back side later today. 480W panels 18 total on this array.

8.6KW of solar on this one.... Currently sitting with a total of 17.5 KW of solar on my property and it still feels empty... I guess ill build a second one. So i built this out of treated wood (mostly). Its 42 feet long x 4 feet wide x 6 feet tall with 11ft uni-strut. Total cost for wood: $420...

Hi guys, Im sure this has been covered soo many times but i bought a DIY battery kit from QSO i am having issues getting this monitoring software to work. I got a RS485 to usb adapter and wired it according to the manual. The software.... so i followed the instructions: first import the...

Internal resistance is basically equivalent to a short. Everytime i try to charge the cells, the voltage hovers around .74V and as soon as you remove the power source it drops to zero. Im pretty sure these cells are garbage.

From what i have been told, he was using a Growatt 3k unit. He said all the settings were set properly. At first he blamed the inverter as faulty. I took it home and tested it and it worked fine. I checked his settings and it was configured correctly. My coworker went on to say that there was 2...

These are battery cells from my coworker. My coworker is a licensed electrician and insisted he knew what to do. He decided that a BMS was not needed and that the inverter would take care of regulating and protecting the cells. So he left the power on in the middle of winter, the batteries...
