EG4 6000XP and Lifepower4 Chart

[goldenskl]

Hello! This is the chart of my night load. Its not much. Home network and cameras, few lights and fans, and the fridge. Its setup to use grid during the night and use battery when grid is out, I go into the night with a full battery and go back to battery at 4am, but all through the night the battery drops to 99% and goes back to 100%. Always using around 20w and im justing wondering why it's always using battery if grid is available. Is this usage normal? Will it hurt the battery? Why does it so it

Using the battery slightly during the night when the grid is available shouldn't significantly impact battery health, especially if the depth of discharge (DoD) is shallow (like dropping from 100% to 99%). Lead-acid and lithium-ion batteries, which are common in solar setups, can handle shallow cycling without much concern for degradation.

The graph listed is the inverter which would have zero idea of battery self consumption.
