    EG4 6000EX User Settings

    Me yet again, I have a question. When I am on EG4 BMS comm mode the voltages go too high for my liking. I resorted to User mode. However, while in BMS comm mode with EG4 settings. The battery slows charge whenever the SoC hits 96% to 10A each battery which I think is nice. However when in...

    EG4 6000 Battery to Utility Transfer

    I have an issue with the EG4 6000 where transfer from Battery to Utility has a slight louder than normal relay sound and electrical items dip and shut down on the shift. On Utility to Battery it's seamless. However I found some information. 1. Inverter set to SBU 2. Shut off AC In breaker 3...

    EG4 48v Lifepower Battery Voltage

    Just a quick question. I saw my batteries go to 58v for about good while today even though they were at 100%. Using an EG4 6000 with BMS comms and EG4 Lifepwoer batteries. It seems they aren't supposed to go to 58v at all. 56.4 is the bulk and float for them. Is this cause for concern? Hope you...

    Samsung Microwave 1600w Input

    I have a 6K eg4 running seemingly well for about 10 days. I recently lost my Microwave and had to upgrade to a Samsung 1600w input. AME811CST. Now when I started the microwave today I got an error 52. Batteries 2x5kw eg4 were full. And 2300w of solar was coming down. 52 is Bus Voltage too Low...

    Eg4 6000 outputting 230V on one leg after update.

    I was going to post this in a thread I was part of but decided to create a new one for persons to see. EG4 6000, 2 Lifepowers 4 batteries. I was doing an update to get better comms with batteries and % values etc Well. I did the update and encountered an extremely serious issue. Now, the...

    PV panel spec query

    Good day. YS420M-72. Setting these up in 5S2P. 10 Panels total. 250ish VoC & 21A. 1. My concern here is the Max series fuse rating. I did a bit of searching and found some info but still not understanding. Can I two of these in parallel safely wih 30A mc4 connectors with 20.92A of current short...

    Growatt 6KW DVM-MPV

    Good day, Question. Every inverter i've seen so far has a Max Input Current from the Solar Array inside the manual. However I realise none of the non parallellable Growatts 12kw, 8kw, 6kw have this spec listed. Seems every inverter differentiates "Max PV Charging Current" as Charging current...

    Smaller than 100Ah batteries for 48V system.

    My question is whether the recommended specs for growatt/mpp which is typically 100/200Ah of storage is essential. Where I am is 85+% sunshine for a good 5-8+ hours depending on year in the Caribbean. Batteries are the hardest part to obtain here. Can I settle for 4, 12v 20Ah batteries for...

    EG4 6500EX Batteryless Operation

    I saw Signature Solars Reveal mention that this can be run batteryless. Can I get confirmation from anyone here that they have done it. Reason being, ill have to wait a few months to order batteries and ship to my country. But I would like to get the ball rolling on the inverter/ panel setup

    240v split phase question

    I'm looking at the Growatt/MPP/possibly EG4 Solar options now on the market. After extensive research on panels, specs, understanding VoC, Currents etc. I realise I'm confused at split phase outputs. Where I live we use a strange combination 115v, 50hz and also 230V 50Hz for bigger appliances...

    Help understand this Voltage and Current

    Doing a lot of research and would like some help. I was looking at 2 AllinOnes the 12Kw Growatt MVP DVM inverter. I See 250v VoC, 7000W, 80A Charging Current(I believe this is not the Panel Current to work with) In the 3k Growatt it explicitly says 250Voc, 4000W Array power and 18Amps (Max PV...
