And that's a nice and neat setup by the way ??

?. Here I was thinking about emi I was thinking about electrical interference or RF noise in other components in around the place too funny

If I had some branch adapters or a combiner box, I'd to the 7s2p and be done until I get more panels... But....

Thank ya'll It sounds like I will loop down and snag one panel from the 6 panel array and make a 9 panel array and hook up the inverter and leave 5 hooked to one of my mini-splits for now and order some cabling to properly series/parrell what I have to connect it all to the inverter later

Thanks for that! Can someone check my math as far as the panel specs in the picture above? I was just tinkering with a "solar array calculator" and it gave me this total when all in series as they are ( actually they are currently in to separate series arrays) For all 14 in series it showed...

As I've read and reread the comments above, I keep thinking 7s2p sounds like 9 panels. I have 14 total and only have 4.4kw of output as configured.... why only use 9 panels... Am I missing it? Sorry fellas... Thanks again

Glancing at diagrams, clearly I'm going to need to hustle up some more PV wire to accomplish this. :( I have to series wired arrays presently 8 and 6

It is a roof mount. I planned to build a large ground mount for my additional solar panels in the future. Noise? hmmm anythig to do to help with that?

I'm finally getting around to installing my inverter. I'll be using my two strings of panels 8 in one string and 6 in the other ( running 18acdc mini-split and 12acdc mini-split on smaller one) As I'm reading the input is limited to 450v DC and on paper the panels wires as one large array...

We are getting ready to build and I'll have several of these in the new home. They keep our 44x40x14 shop whatever temp we want. We ran em solar only for over a year before running utility to the shop

Yep 77 seer on DC and 24 seer on AC (230v)

???? Did I misread the og post... Whoops Sorry ?, I'm just happy to be here

.

I have NO batteries or inverters in the mix... they will run PV direct!!! I have the option of running them on utility at night if I were to need to. I've been very pleased thus far with them.

I have two. A hotspot energy acdc12 and a acdc18 I heat and cool a 44x40 with 14' sidewalls with no issues Seer rating of 24 on 240v and 77 on solar Well pleased, going on 4 years

WONDERFUL, that's great as my equipment it's about 50 yards from my meter. I was hoping not to have to do something wild in the way of a remote disconnect at meter.

Finally getting ready to install my new LVX6048 and thought I ask the experts. Exactly what does parameter #9 allow for? Is that to stop producing when utility power is not present ( like a power outage)? Thanks in advance for the feedback

Out of curiosity, what is the inverter "doing" do use 135 watts idling? Is it monitoring something? Is that something that a firmware could change depending on what parameter dictates such "monitoring"? Just thinking out loud...

I assumed so, just had to ask....

question for the experts.... I have my LVX6048 so my well and other loads are comfortably taken care up, but can I run additional inverters along side it? Say adding a LV6548 or two with it? Will they stack and talk and work?

any updates on this? Thanks

THANK YOU!

I looked at the SMA stuff, seems top of the line.... I'd love to go lithium as soon as possible! I want all the array I can afford when the house is done. I am working on a shoestring budget at present and want to have a dab of power for backup... I am anxious to grow the setup

You've sent me into the library to read and learn more AGAIN... I'm enjoying this forum!

In looking for a battery option to act as a "capacitor" for high load start up, what about using a 48 volt golf cart? on our farm, my wife has discussed using a golf cart to carry items to garden area and livestock tending to... I'm just trying to make the money go farther, and power sharing...

correct, when your freezer is COLD, it could go days without even running...

This is exactly what I intend to do! great news, thanks

I have Hotspot energy acdc18c units at my farm.... I love them! off-grid ac

I have "creeped" on this site for a good while and finally signed up. I've enjoyed reading and learning a great deal here and am starting a project. My desire is to have a system that will allow for my well pump and a few freezers and a fridge along with an occasional cordless tool charging...

Super impressive setup for sure!!! NICE WORK
