Mine worked great for 2 months (120 Watt GMI 120L) then the AC fuse fried. I am getting 2 sets of replacement parts and fuses for $15 but I need to solder them on! I guess your results may vary. ROI is over 600 Days now with full sun so I doubt I'll ever see any savings but it is sill fun!
Bob Hope, I am on the fence with my Y&H 120W MPPT Grid Tie Micro Inverter. It worked great for two months, Dec/Jan but then it blew the AC side fuse. I am getting two sets of parts to solder on for $7 each and they are confident this will fix it but for how long? I will be lucky to be able to...
In California they have the Legion Solar kits which are a bit over kill in my opinion. You need Anti Islanding Grid Tie Inverters. It's easy enough to test with a multi meter. No AC to the unit should mean no AC coming out of the extension cord. The Legion stuff has a transformer set that clips...
I have a Y&H 120 watt grid tie micro inverter that's installed and working. I tried to put my watt meter inline to see how much output I am actually getting but it just says overload. It's basically going the wrong direction. Maybe I can use my multimeter to measure ac amps? It would just be...
Very interesting. Basically you add a draw on the same ac circuit with and without the inverters power and then use the difference to correlate? at 6 Mins, 50 seconds he uses a watt meter to measure the inverters output. I can't get that to work for me.
Thanks for the reply! The Micro inverter senses the grid just fine by connecting to the female end of a 50 foot extension cord to a GFI exterior plug on my house. I didn't know if the watt meter would work but wanted some way to see how many watts output of the 100 from the panels I'm actually...
