Bumping. I think someone will want these if they read the thread.

I have 2 new in box gsl/deye 7.6k split phase UL for sale. They were for an off grid hobby farm, but a medical issue this spring has changed things for us. PM me if interested

I'm in the Edmonton Alberta area.

Due to a back injury, I will be selling both of these inverters. We are going be selling the hobby farm, because I will not be able to enjoy the work on it anymore.

There are hundreds of bolts in the average car including the battery clamps. A car bounces and shakes. I would prefer "properly" bolted for the convenience if a cell ever has an issue. Either way I would want to open up the battery to make sure it's wired, and bolted/welded properly, with...

There are many of these stories about felicity. I suspect the company re-selling them knows how poor they are, but cut a deal. It's easy for them to pass them off, and claim they never knew. Felicity sets the specs. People everywhere should spread the message about felicity and those who surely...

Felicty has trolls here and elsewhere. They have sent me PMs, pretending to be a customer. Anyone who needs trolls wouldn't get my business. Just be wary of this company.

Deye is a good choice. I think.

Too many volts = smoke. Where there is smoke,,,, well you know. Try to stay under 400v during the coldest calculated temp. The highly expensive, Sol-Ark will thank you long term. California is not Costa Rica temp. Higher altitude is not lower altitude temp.

Look for maximum panel Isc in your inverter specs. Stay under it. My 7.6k are 18a+18a mppt, Max panel isc is 25a. The inverter will clip the amps from there. I will be at 22a +- panel Isc. Do a panel calculator, and get your historical low temps. With info from hedges. I am calculating at -65c...

I'm happy to see you and others are working on some of the issues. I apologize for my rant, but Solar can be a slippery slope for many, who don't have the tech skills of others. Especially when other financial obligations, and budgets prevent them from simply writing a chq. In order to have...

Ok Ill let you know as soon as I know.

We are talking about communication from batteries to inverters. Do you have Victron batteries with a Victron inverter? We are not talking about the hardware, and each company firmware, but lets face it if anyone thinks that any manufacturer can't buy an inverter from the other guy, and reverse...

Hi I'm sorry. I was out at our hobby farm for the day. I am not sure yet about selling one. I am in Alberta, and would have to ship.

Where are you located?

Here we get occasional temps below -45c. I used -60c to calculate, (better safe than sorry) and I am staying well below the max voc at -60. Your inverter specs should have the max pv Isc (mine didn't but I found it). Don't go above that. The inverter will clip the excess amps. For your 12k...

I assumed you were an end user. You are also solar savvy, and I am sure also get some of the perks that being a distributer affords. The majority of the end users pay retail, which pays the wages and profit for all involved, and I would hazard to guess 95% of them have less knowledge then I do...

Actually Richard, there are people who want it more than you. The end user, the bill payer.

Then it's high time to pick a standard and run with it. If 20 or so bigger distributors got on the phone and agreed enough is enough, your life could be easier. Get on the forums, and contact more and more dealers. Invite dealers in from here and across the ponds. The more dealers that demand...

Last year was a weird one here. +47c to -47c. Maybe I should recalculate to -60 or -70c. Thanks for the help.

I'm building a highly insulated shed for inverter, batteries, with 2 propane wall heaters. One for use one for redundancy. Propane and wire are roughed into it's location. Your in a cold location too, I see.

15 kw will put my voltage out of whack. Even if I 7s2p the 445 watt panels I'm getting up there in voc the inverter specs write like this PV input voltage 370v(100v-500v) Unless I'm wrong 370v is the sweet spot per mppt? In cold weather I'm right near that 370v per mppt 6s2p. I don't have the...

I am being very careful on voc. I have used 2 calculators just to compare. Temps went lower than -45 here last winter. I will be well under the max voltage. I had to calculate it at -50c here. Is 10,920w to much for a 9880w inverter? I have one area to build the ground mount. It is wide open to...

That's what I was thinking too. I thought the manual, and/or the spec sheet would have the same and more info then the label, but not so. Voltage and Max PV Isc amps are good. Now to figure out watts I can buy reasonable 425 and 455 watt panels. The 455w are less money for some reason...

It will self limit from 26a max pv ISC to 22a. That is for each MPPT, not for each set of input connections.

It has 2 mppt trackers

Kinda feel a bit silly. I asked various ways about the max pv impute amps of these, as I could not read anywhere about self limiting pv current. Thanks to a member here, I have the answer. The panels in 6s2p which I want to use would be 21+ amps per mppt, the 7.6k states 18+18a. The spec sheet...

I had considered the Felicity batteries but read some things I didn't like. Then someone sent me a PM, and I'm sure it was a troll here. He/She was touting the batteries, and said he/she bought a bunch and they were great. When I asked what inverters were used, The response was one brand then a...

Richard I want to state again, I'm not trying to flame you or any other distributor. I'm just saying the tech is there, and has been for some time. It's high time for these manufactures, both domestic, and foreign to get the communication standardized. I have done my own research, but nobody...

Communication is valuable to some, not to others. Communication is an asset to me. I just think with something that has become as high tech as solar components, with all the years of the components on the market, not having universal communication protocols is poor reflection on the...

I guess I could ask, will your battery communicate with my printer? It isn't supposed to. Solar batteries and inverters are supposed to.

https://www.inspirecleanenergy.com/blog/clean-energy-101/who-discovered-solar-power With do respect, and believe me I do respect those who are smart in every field, I have to disagree with solar being infant. Yes modern solar from the 1970s is a bit more infant then modern computers, but since...

I'm sorry Richard but I strongly disagree that every manufacturer "knows best" with regards to everything solar. The solar installers and end users who pay the bills, know best with what they want. Sure they are the engineering brains who design and build this stuff. They are also the brains...

In this day and age, all of the communication protocols from all of the manufacturers, should be streamlined right from the get go. All the inverters and batteries have comm ports, they just don't communicate? Shouldn't firmware be designed to communicate before hitting the market, not a...

More underground cable.
