The property is off grid
using a Prius as a generator to power an off grid tiny home
Inverter being used: Aurora PVI6000
Prius traction battery voltage: 220 DC
Ran wire from Prius to pvi6000
Inverter turned on and said "Missing Grid"
This is grid tie inverter and needs to be connected to grid for it to pump extra electricity to
How can I utilize the capability of this inverter to take the high voltage direct current and turn it into 240AC?
My idea: get battery bank and turn it into 240AC, plug that into the grid tie inverter, and it will think it has a grid, and any excess electricity will be stored in those batteries
Concern: will the grid tie inverter keep pumping electricity and explode those batteries, or is it smart enough to sense that the grid is "full" and cannot take any more
Will this solve the problem of using grid tie inverter in off grid situation?
