I see so much conflicting advice, it is hard to know what is correct. :) I can tell you what I have done for my replacement inverter. (Anen 10.2KW Max) Setting Number| My setting | Comment 05 USE means User defined...

Thanks for the thought. :) On reflection this would mess up my Cheap Chinese battery charging inverter which expects up to 500v DC. I have A/B switches to send PV to the SMA or the Cheap Chinese system. The Chinese system claims to be Hybrid... but it cannot draw power from the battery and...

I use a power provider (Amber.com.au) that rewards Feed-in power when the grid is short of power. Naturally this happens when there is no sun, and when demand is highest; typically, after sunset and pre-dawn. I have an old, grid-tied, 5KW, SMA inverter connected to the grid, but it no longer...

I do not see this parameter either. I have a wifi-controlled-switch that I use to (dis)connect the grid. It also has the ability to meter lots of information too. Note it can do Power-in, Power-out, volts, amps, Hz etc Link here It links to SmartLife app

Thanks for the tip I was getting nowhere until I tried this website. Have you figured out how to change the battery SOC% to 100% when the battery is full? Mine still says 50% when it should be 100% I have a Anern Max 10200 Hybrid inverter but no data connection to the battery

I have given up on my Y&H 10KW inverter - junked! The MPPT section is dead. I've just got Anern Max-10200 which has similar specs. but seems better so far. On AliExpress - look up "Hybrid Solar Inverter 10200W On-Grid/Off-Grid MPPT 48VDC to 230VAC Can Work No Battery Built-in 160A Solar...

I have the same issue. The datalogger shows as offline - see the green highlight sat the bottom of the picture. I see warnings about "NOT 5GHz compatible." I use Google Wi-Fi with 3 nodes; they auto switch to the best frequency. The only way to control the frequency according to 'help' is to...

I saw a video on youtube by someone who spent 10 years in China and has many contacts there. He says news of EV fires is suppressed. Many of the fires are BYD cars so I wonder if the blade batteries are as safe as we hope? Many of the fires shown are stationary EVs with some being charged. A...

Sadly the entire order failed to arrive; both prismatics and blades were 'lost'. They got through Australian customs but then disappeared. I did get a prompt refund from AliExpress. I have pondered if super cheap offers like this are used to lure people like me to order the goods which end...

How about using USB as the parameter for "Program 1" = Utility/Solar/Grid You can turn off the connection to Utility using a switch and that will force the battery to take over when there is no sun. If there is enough sun, then you will run the house and charge the battery. My switch-overs...

Have other people had these issues also?

Having used this inverter for a month I would not recommend it - unless LOW-cost is VERY important to you. Issue 1 The switch-over from supplying power into the grid to reliance on your battery is messy. It seems there is no way to do this except for manually disconnecting from the grid. I...

This post is only slightly relevant to your problem but it is worth knowing about. I have been testing out a meter that records imported and exported KWh. It seems to be doing this job and also displays Amps, grid voltage. It also acts as a switch that responds to a WiFi signal via an App. The...

Wow! What is the name of the company that makes all these brands? (Y&H or another?)

I tried that too :) but when I try to re register the WiFi dongle, their server says "the logger has been used by user s******c." - which is the username I used (with the un-fixable PW) :(

If you look at the business info for Y&H they are called Shenzhen Yonghui Fashion Co., Ltd. :)

It could actually be correct! If you live in Northern Ireland, in mid winter, you will be getting almost no sun and the day-length will be very short. I'm in Australia where its really sunny at the moment. Much of the last 12 months was very gloomy here as a result of the Tonga volcano - they...

Y&H say they do. They say they are 'made to order' so please add 3 weeks onto the delivery time. My package was sent via Cathy Pacific (Hong Kong airline) and arrived within a month of ordering. There is no company logo on the front so perhaps they will make these for other companies...

FWIW Here is what I see for a Growatt 5000ES 633W to the house the rest to the battery.

Before buying, I asked Y&H questions on-line and found replies were helpful but not super quick - one to two days. The price was attractive and I wanted a 10KW Hybrid inverter to replace a 5KW Growatt Grid-tie - it could not cope with 10KW Peak PV of course, but did well over the winter. A...

Here is the manual. It is similar to the Growatt manual (but different!) The settings which I call Parameters are referred to as Programs in the manual. Parameter 37 ant 38 relate to grid tie and HYBRID modes. I know the inverter is exporting to the grid (I have several checks) but there is a...

I am no expert but I am happy to share experience (Retired living in Australia)

I have just installed a new hybrid 10.2KW Inverter from Y&H (Ali-Express) It's only downside, so far, is the fan (3) noise! They do warn you 'not near your bedroom' so I knew a distant location from the house was called for. It seems to be limited to grid exports of ~7KW (rather than the...

Real BYD blade cells being used now are much higher capacity 202Ah according to... https://pushevs.com/2020/05/26/byd-blade-prismatic-battery-cell-specs-possibilities/ I wonder if they are selling off the 138Ah 'early versions' at low prices? Perhaps these are the rejected cells when they were...

I have put in a Black-Friday order for the 138Ah blades. Hopefully they will get here by March 2023 :unsure: They claim a puncture test generates temperatures of 30-60 degrees centigrade and that this is mediated through the large quantity of aluminum which dissipates the heat. A prismatic...

If you have the WiFi data-logger plugged into the USB port of the Growatt (SPF 5000ES in my case) you can set up a cloud account using the SHINE phone app. (you need to set up a username and password). see https://server.growatt.com/login To make adjustments to the Inverter's settings using the...

neither Growatt or MPPSolar have remote monitoring systems. Actually the web version of the Shine software https://server.growatt.com/selectPlant will let you remotely monitor and change settings. Same applies to the iOS ShinePhone app. You do need to plug in the WiFi-USB-dongle that is referred...

I have currently 3 strings (304v, 312v, 475v) when connected to a Fronius grid-tied inverter (3 strings in and 3 phases out) These strings were installed by a professional team that used lots of silicone rubber ;) I want to connect all three together using breakers and use them as input to a...

Hi Tim. I use the same inverter in Australia with 230v (226-245 to be exact) I have not yet connected my Daly BMS to the inverter and find it annoying that the Growatt's estimate of State Of Charge is so wildly inaccurate and imprecise that I ignore it. The "ShinePhone" app only shows voltage...

I have fully charged the battery and have taken a series of screenshots showing the states of batteries. Top left shows the time. Blue indicates lowest voltage and red the highest. Can you draw any conclusions of v (resting) and Delta_V is 0.004 at 2:16pm and cell #6 was marginallyhigher than...

I tried your link today but I got a Oops! That page can’t be found. 404 error. How would you feel about uploading the package somewhere else?

I mentioned this bad-reputation to the contact at Liitokala in a light-hearted way at the time of ordering - in the hope that they would know that I was not a total novice. I realize, despite the Liitokala label saying 320Ah, that these are probably just good 280 Ah that on their first test...

Thanks. The Growatt Spec says Low DC volt cut-off is settable between 40v - 48v And the Upper cut-off voltage is 48.0v to 58.4v. The BMS can cope with <200A discharge and the batteries are rated at 320AH. I aim for maximum charging and discharging current of 95A.

I did not top balance rigorously, but I left the inverter and battery connected at full SOC balancing for 2 days. The difference between the cells was tiny, and the lowest cell was not #6. I will do it again if you think it might solve the problem. I might use a lab-power supply to adjust #6.

Yup, fully charged several times. I wonder if anyone has tried the idea of simply removing the faulty cell and adjusting the inverter settings by multiplying by 15/16. e.g. new cut-off becomes 56v x .93 = 52.5v
