I like to think that I don't sniff glue, but I had a thought in the shower last night.
I have a small array I'm building, 4.2kw. I'm picking up a growatt 5k grid tie inverter. The inverter needs a sine wave supply from the grid to start taking power from the panels and supplying it to the house.
When power goes out, I currently switch off my main, switch on my gen breakers, and fire up my gas generator that backfeeds the whole house. My thought is, that will also activate my grid tie inverter, and utilize my solar panels.
But if my generator runs out of gas, what if I utilize my oukitel aio to provide that sine wave with a suicide cord of sorts. Obviously I'd only get one leg out of it, and it would have to be on the same leg of the growatt. obviously I would need to limit my consumption, and watch my battery level, but if i charged it from the panels and grid tie inverter at the same time i'm supplying the sine wave, i should be fine as long as panels are producing and i don't drop to low overnight.
