I have the TP6048 controller from SunGoldPower and am getting ready to connect the battery. Do I have to discharge some capacitor inside the controller with a 50-ohm resister before connecting the battery was with so many other controllers?

Got a fast question: I notice that no one chats about the Sungoldpower 6000w-48v TP6048 all-in-one controller/inverter. I bought one about 4 months back, but just now getting to set it up. Although it doesn't require batteries, I want to set it up as off grid as I cannot have grid tie in my...

the main issue is that (and it just could be my Ampere Time 24V 100Ah Lithium Iron Phosphate battery didn't last long) is that when the battery kicked in it would drop to 24.5 vdc then within minutes drop to 24.0 volts. At 24Vdc my 2424 would have a discharge current of l22 amp. At 22 amps, the...

No one seems to talk about the TP6048 in this group. This TP6048 is an 6000W 48V Hybrid Solar Inverter Grid Tie Inverter for Solar Panel Split Phase 120/240VAC (Grid Feedback & Batteryless) - from SunGoldPower Anyway, I ordered it this past Monday and on Saturday it was at my doorsteps. It was...

A curiosity question! Over the last 30 months that I have been in this group and watching tons of youtube videos by Will P and others, I note they are all using 2 or more inverters/converters in parallel. The question I have, if one controller can handle you house load, why would I need more...

LV2424 MPPT Controller not working like it used too for over a year. I think my lv2424 controller is not working like it used too. Two months back, the Utility was suppling power to the house when in theory, it should have been both the solar and battery only. I noticed today during some...

Well powers has done tons of recordings on All-In-One inverter/controllers but it would take hours to rewatch all of them again. So, I would like to ask a question of these controllers. I’ve been using the MPPT 2424lv for two years, but I need to get a different one because to use the 2424lv I...

I was just notified last night that some scammer is trying to scam our group using my name. This is not me and I would never try to same this group or any other group. I don't know what we can do about these scammers, but just live with it I guess.

Is anyone using the Growatt 5000W Solar Hybrid Inverter 230Vac, All-in-One Pure Sine Wave Inverter with 100A MPPT Controller? If so do you have a PDF for that I can have a copy of or a link to where I can get it? The best I can tell, it only takes 220vac for a Utility connection and will only...

My Solar project update: Still plagued with two issues with my solar controller. One (you can almost set your watch by it) at about 3:05 pm +/- 5 minutes, the utility kicks on to supply power to the house and the solar and battery currents drop to zero. There is no reason for this to happen as...

Has anyone experienced their MTTP 2424Lv-PIP controller/inverter turning off for around 30 to 60 seconds then auto restart while the outside air temps are in the ’90s (95 to 100 degrees)? Any feedback or recommendations on what to look for are welcome! Comment: I removed all the background...

this seems to be the best location for the conversation. show and till says you need to post pictures. I’m a little puzzled – controller/inverter shutdown. Issue: This morning at 4:07 AM, my MTTP PIP-2424lv-mds all-in-one controller/inverter shut down. The house was being powered by the...

What setting to choose in Option #1 – controller 2424lv With respect to the MTTP PIP-2424lv-MSD all-in-one controller/inverter there are three settings in Option #1 (Output source priority) – SOL, UE1, and 56U. I am not going to discuss UE1 as it relates to Solar and Battery to supply energy to...

I AM SO DAMN EXCITED THAT I CAN'T CONTROL MYSELF. Finally got my Solar System tied into the house wiring. AND IT IS WORKING!! After 9 months of scraping money to buy parts and testing for all kinds of conditions. I finally tied my system into the house. Now I have power from the MTTP Solar...

For 6 months my 2424lv controller/inverter while in my workshop run falsely while connected to the Utility, Batteries, and solar. So, this week it was time to move and mount the solar panels on the roof of my house and move the controller/inverter to its new location, and preparing to connect to...

I don't see a thread on Solar panel heat so will has my question. I've started testing my Solar panels output with respect to their temperature as measured with a temperature handheld gun. Today, for example, the outside temperature in the sun is 70 F degrees, but the panels which are parallel...

I have asked a similar question on the battery "type" setting before but only got one response back then. This was back several months ago. So please forgive me for asking it again. The question could be useful to newbies to the forum. I am using the all-in-one MTTP 2424lv controller/inverter...

I have got a question or puzzle if you will. I bought two 12v 220ah AGM (lead-acid) batteries yesterday because I am a poor boy and can’t afford to go Lithium at this time. – The batteries are connected in series for 24v My 2424lv (MTTP controller/inverter) option 29 (low voltage cutoff) is set...

I have the all-in-one MTTP 2424LV-PIP controller/inverter. For the last few months with the unit sitting on my workbench while I play with it, I have had the Battery Type (option #5) set to User and set my own parameters in options #26, #27, and #29. However, my junk batteries finally dead after...

Found out something about a little solar system. I have the MTTP 2424LV-msd (all-in-one) controller/inverter. Up until this time I have been using a 140-watt fan or 100-watt heat lamp as my load from my 2424lv. For several months the 2424lv has been sitting on my workbench in my hanger and...

I have the PIP-2424LV-MSD by MPP all-in-one controller/inverter and for the last couple of months on my test bench, it has been running flawlessly while doing different testing on it and running a floor fan at 220 watts as a load. Yesterday, I wanted to connect and test the system with a solar...

Without running a low dc battery voltage test and take the change of hurting my controller/inverter, I thought I would ask the question first. I have the all-in-one MPP 2424lv-mds controller/inverter. What does the controller do or what damage can be down to a controller/inverter in the middle...

First please excuse me if I lose you as everyone knows how bad engineers can screw up a document written by them. Next, note that I added a pdf below in case the article is too long to read in the forum. Background – My (6) 300W Solar panels are to be mounted on top of my covered carport roof...

We all know that if you do not put at least a 50-ohm resistor between the controller input and the positive side of your battery, for a moment, you will get a big spark and scare you to death. The resistor prevents that initial spark from the capacitor in the controller/inverter from discharging...

For the last few days, my email box has been bombarded with notifications messages from our group. when I click on them to view, I get a message that says Opps not found. I'm just wondering if our group has been hacked?

Does anyone know the size of the circuit breaker that is in the PIP - 2424LV-MSD 3KVA controller/inverter by MPP? It shows (and the manual does elaborate) that the AC output to the load is 3000 VA. Or assuming 120 volts MPPT the current is 3000/120 = 25 amps. So, the breaker should be 25 or 30...

I have the PIP 2424LV-MSD controller/inverter. The manual says it can handle up to 3kw and can power all kinds of appliances at home including motor-type appliances such as tube lights, fans, refrigerators, and air conditioners. My house on the average runs on 400 watts and 2172 watts if I also...

Here is a good article that "us" newbies to read with respect to our solar panel spec sheets. It covers all those numbers you see like, VOC or ISC, and many others. I was surprised by what I didn't know...

I picked up 6 Talesun Solar panels yesterday (VOC-38.7 ISC-9.17 41lb 65”x39”x1.75”) for $120 cash (hence, no taxes, no shipping). I live 20 miles from the guy, so I picked them up in person. – wore my mask of course! If you live in the S.F. bay area (he lives in Concord) he still has around 10...

I have not bought my batteries yet, but just doing research. With respect to the 24V LiFePO4, the specs say they can handle Maximum Continuous Charge Current: 130A @ 25℃ and the same for discharge current - Maximum Continuous Discharge Current: 130A @ 25℃. Can Lithium batteries really handle...

I’ve just about got my solar system build and setting on my workbench. Now, at the moment, my MPP PIP-2424LV-MDS controller/inverter will be used as a backup to the Utility (power company) source. Once the system is installed on the house, next to the circuit breaker box, I will have the option...

I've noticed that there is a lot of posts (let's call it chatter) relating to running water pumps on Solar with respect to the controllers they want to use. The question I have with respect to my 2424lv-mds (MPP) the manual says that the controller is good for 2.4kw and can handle 2 times this...

I think it was TicTac that told me not to be in a hurry in building my solar system. I’m glad I took his advice as my original design would have gone up in smoke or worse yet burned down the house. The goals/objectives for this project are as follows: 1 – System set up (for the moment anyway)...

A Brian thought voyage on solar vs battery with respect to cost. For the moment I was going to install and use my Solar system - pip-2424lv-mds controller/inverter – and 2 Lithium batteries to confront these darn California rolling blackouts and local blackouts with 6 homes on one 100 amp...

Well, I am getting there with my Solar Project for the house? The system excepts 110vac from either the utility company or Gas generator. Or from the solar/battery combination. At this moment in time, the Utility will be set up as primary with the battery and Solar as a backup. – money issues...
