Thank you for the post Will and for your informative videos on youtube. I am looking for an in depth MegaRevo 8k hybrid inverter manual. I am looking for something with details. The one that comes with the unit does not discuss all the features and how to configure. I believe that this inverter is similar ir not idential to the BlueSun.

okay..long time to re-post..I installed the MPP PIP 2724LV-Mr 24V...so far so good. after 6 months here are my thoughts:
I have 2 SOK 12 volts, Victron smart shunt. 425 watt single panel. On my first road trip, all was good. We used electricity for making coffee and cooking (Ikea induction hotplate) which pulled up to 1800 watts at a time. After about an hour of boiling water and frying veggies the batteries were down to about %70...by 9 AM the next morning we were %100 charged. so pretty happy with that. Around day 8, in the middle of the night the alarm on the charger starting ringing and the shunt indicated Midpoint Voltage Deviation of %2...so I just shut the charger off. In the morning I plugged into the shore power and that started to reset or recharge. After this trip and some investigation I installed the Balancer from watts247..He mentions that this is required for multi battery set ups. (Note: my batteries were perfectly balanced before I installed them). I am happy with the MPP unit, but there are a lot of parameters in the settings and SOK doesn't provide an answer to many of them.

Happy Holidays All,
In Will's Video he states no fuse is needed because the battery has a BMS of its own?
Will also shows no circuit breaker with the AC connection and the MPP Manual states that the unit is protected (see #11 item in description of manual layout)?
But then the manual states that a breaker/fuse should be installed ahead of the DC Positive and the AC input, in the connection/installation sections??
Its Christmas Time and I'm asking Santa or Will or Anyone,
PLEASE HELP!

If it's a single battery you can use the built-in fuse if it's DC rated. If you have multiple batteries you need to use a t class fuse to protect the conductor that supplies the system or bus bar. I would stick to the blueprint on my main website.

It looks like Will had updated the diagram showing the fuse on the battery.
The MPP has the circuit breaker for the AC input, it is located on the bottom left of the unit.
For AC output, it should have circuit breaker as well.

On one of my older system build videos I said you can get away without a fuse on the battleborns. But all of the schematics and all of the recommendations have had a fuse of some sorts on them.It looks like Will had updated the diagram showing the fuse on the battery.

And in the book it states every conductor needs to have over current protection device

I'm here are rewatching your "beginners 48v" video from 2019 trying to figure out to turn of that incessant beeping...
I am using a Powmr (from before they even had a name, there is no name/logo/anything on my Allinone. It's a 3500watt 110. (I kinda regret not getting the 5000watt 220,but I've barely needed 220v anyways).
My issue is finding a manual or simply what setting will stop the that infernal beeping. (Specifically at sunrise and sunset as it bounces between enough charge and not enough from the PV)
Anyways...if there is any way you can help, I'd greatly appreciate.

Scroll through the set up menus and find one that resembles this:
It won't necessarily be option 18 on your particular inverter but look for that code.
You might also have one like this:

These are all the setting that I am uncertain of and have never changed. All other settings I know what they are. It's possible I'm stuck with the beep. I'm just in a place where the last two hours of sunlight are shaded by trees and it's two hours of constant on/off PV beeping. ? I really hope it's one of these.

I doubt it.
01 UTI
Output source priority. Some inverters also have an SUb option as well:
03 UPS
Voltage input operating range. Your voltages may vary, this is just to describe the function: Also changes how quickly the UPS function cuts over from utility to battery. UPS mode is quicker but also tend to modify the waveform more as a result.
06 SnU
Charger Source Priority:
22 dIS
I don't know, possibly a Display setting?
24 EnA
Don't know.
