I run a hybrid LiFePO4 and SLA battery so it is possible. However it depends on few things. Objectives? Type of lead acid battery and...

This morning I hooked up the spare AIO for charging the battery. Unfortunately it looks as though the comms in my AIO is toast. Comms...

No.

No. Not sold in Australia. In my case Solar Assistant communicates with my AIO inverter and also my Victron Smart Shunt for overall...

You sure are full of good ideas! I have a spare 4 kW AIO which can act as a charger. Indeed I recently hooked up this spare AIO to the...

It will depend on what data the Sol Ark supplies to Solar Assistant but I'd imagine that it would have AC input voltage and probably...

Apologies, just realised following is not specifically about Victron and regulatory issues but is following on from the discussion on...

I run like the above - with a manual transfer switch pretty much permanently left in in generator/off-grid supply position, the power...

I think we have crossed lines. I'm not talking about what it is is/not permitted but rather what it is capable of. Some inverter AC...

That's a bit of a confusing description. What do you mean by "input", input to the grid or input to the inverter? For some devices they...

I'd have thought that would apply to generation source which has the potential to energise the grid.

Contact Tesla directly and escalate to level 2 support.

Interesting, must be different set up specs to here. I note the document is some years old and mentions compatibility with Gateway 1...

That's unfortunate.

The Powerwall is a highly functional battery system and can do many things when set up correctly. They are mostly designed to do the...

I use Node Red for the logic for deciding whether or not supplemental charge is required: That then updates relevant entities which...

No, it's not. The Powerwall operates in different modes when grid is and is not available and the AC output is not the same in each...

I use Solcast and have it integrated in Home Assistant. Provides week ahead and hourly forecasts. Can see how it performs over time...

Was this requirement stated in your brief to the installer before they quoted for a system? What was the operational promise they made...

I’d tell you a joke about a blunt needle but it’s pointless.
