Im uk based and had the same issue with my roof panels. So i put the garden hose on full pressure and with intermittent squirts, i managed to creat enough pressure to reach the panels and give them a soaking. But, they do say if you live in a hard water area, do not use tap water, as it can...

Is anyone using a different way, other than the growatt website. To monitor their production and usage??? Thanks

Dont you just add in the plant area???

Its ok, ive found a company that supplies and installs at a decent price. Thanks for the input

Its not to add solar….its to add battery storage to an already existing system, without messing with the current set-up.

its not really what im looking for.....what i want is a video showing how to add ac coupling to an already fitted string inverter and panels . to add battery storage later down the line if needed. as it doesnt need MCS certification i was hoping to do it myself

there is no hybrid inverter, that's why you do AC coupling....if it was a hybrid inverter, i could just add batteries to the hybrid. To add battery storage to a string inverter, you do ac coupling

is there a video anywhere of how to wire an ac coupled inverter and battery to an existing system?? thanks

Ok….so if i have this right ….for the 300w inverter (300/.90)/12) x 1.25 = 34.7a fuse……so round up to 40a and use 10awg cable

So if the wire is 6awg…..how do i fuse it???

Ive got the following….. 100w Renogy Solar Panel 20amp MPPT Renogy Rover Charger 130ah Deep Cycle Battery What size fuse between the battery and the MPPT please……..the leads came with a 20amp fuse installed Thanks Guys ps im going to connect it to a 12v 300watt inverter too, so what size...

Ive currently got a 120w panel on the arbor roof feeding the poweroak……which is 21.7 voc. so i will stick with that for now. As im hoping to have residential solar fitted this winter anyway.

I have this samll power generator from poweroak here in the UK, Bluetti in the US.... Now looking at the solar specs it states dc14-40v for solar charging. Does that mean upto 40v open circuit voltage, cause the manual says 120w panel and im confused a little bit at what size panel i could...

so no one used the words arrogant, entitled and demanding ina derogatory fashion??? Its ok, those words dont bothered me in the slightest. i asked a question that i thought was pretty simple, people didnt get it, thats ok. lets move on.
