    3000TL LVM -24P and 4 Battle Born Batteries

    Was going to wait until I bought my house with a solar shed, but I couldn't stand it. Been installing this in my 18 ft travel trailer. Batteries are ready to go, but Growatt is not wall mounted yet. I have just tested plugging the 30 amp shore power directly into the Growatt with an adapter. I...
