awesome info, thanks!

I see, thanks. Complete & total inexperience is why I ask the question.

My apologies, yes 3.2v LifePO4. I already made the purchase of the SolArk15k. But I'm winging it and hoping it'll work out. Thanks for tip on JK vs Daly. I've seen others recommending away from Daly. I've settled on the Sol Ark probably as much for permit reasons as anything else. I want to...

yes good advice but too bad I've had panels & batteries for about a year now. I do have a 16 circuit monitor coming so I can better assess my day/night usage and then I can figure out the rest of the purchases for how to use what I have. As for the electrician comment, unfortunately I have to...

Thanks for that info. I'm definitely being persuaded on the capabilities of the Sol-Ark 15k. I see a poster below recommending doing the power calculations first which of course is good advice but too late for that as I already have 22kw of panels & 57ky of DIY batteries. I haven't purchased...

Yes so now we are back to the primary problem, the cost of multiple sol-arks. If I decided to go with an off grid configuration with the grid as backup, I could use something like the EG4. Seems the EG4 has transfer switch and everything else the Sol-Ark does except that the Sol-Ark can export...

Thanks, will do

I have enough panels & batteries that I'm aiming for net zero. With the Sol Ark I'm limited to 15kw solar & 12kw battery

My high level goal is flexibility and then figure out what I need/like with experience. If I invest in a more grid tie oriented approach, down the road I may prefer something more off grid and vice versa. I don't have handle on the home needs yet other than just an average of utility bill but...

So you are seeing the internal AC generation as needing to be coupled with the sync? I don't have the knowledge of how that magic happens but just thinking in general a black box that does it all vs independent components always has its pros & cons. The Sol Ark sounds great but buying two would...

I know this may be apples & oranges but that's really my question, what are the critical differences. Sol Ark can interact with the grid, that means it has that capability to time things properly to get the grid to accept the AC being sent to it. Functionally is that the primary difference...

If I may hijack old thread, what about a DIY set of batteries using the 3.2v 280ah cells from china configured into 48v with daly or similar BMS? Will Sol Ark 15k work with them?

Yea I am starting to think that as well. Just did a search for other optimizers and found the tigos. Thanks for the further info, I am leaning towards putting it all back on ebay.

I got a great ebay deal on dc optimizers which sent me in the solaredge direction and then I ended up finding another good deal on the grid tie inverter. I'm thinking maybe I now understand why I'm finding those deals. Your answer about the battery compatibility makes up my mind and I'm going to...

I have a few basic questions that will route my next steps. I have panels, a solaredge SE10000H grid inverter and a bunch of P400 dc optimizers. I have enough panels that I can split the system into two 10kw systems but I probably regret buying the SE10000H because I want to do a hybrid DC...

Hello Jens, I am interested in doing something similar but very curious about the other equipment you are using. Do you use a 48kw inverter? How do you deal with the 1000A? If I were to get 8 of these modules I figured I'd need to setup 2S in 4 independent circuits from four 12kw inverters...
