are you running led bulbs?Makes me not want to admit their 6048 has been running my house for 3 weeks with no issues (besides lights flickering when the washer agitates) .
Yea, various brands and types. I added a capacitor to the AC out but it didn't help.are you running led bulbs?
I ask because I was having the same problem and it was driving me crazy, but I just found a LED bulb that does not flicker so now I know it is the lights not the inverter.Yea, various brands and types. I added a capacitor to the AC out but it didn't help.
Please share the bulbs you found.I ask because I was having the same problem and it was driving me crazy, but I just found a LED bulb that does not flicker so now I know it is the lights not the inverter.
@420hmsPAPlease share the bulbs you found.
I still think it's the inverter... Lights never flickered on utility, I'm guessing there is a voltage drop and/or frequency change when the washer agitates. I don't have any way to verify this, I can't pick anything drastic up with my meter but it may not sample fast enough.
yes! bulbs with smaller capacitors to buffer AC power will dim more easily.But I think it has to do with the quality of the capacitor inside the bulb
Usually they are cut at the factory. But a true DIYer (like yourself) cuts their own.We're not supposed to cut the panels? Maybe that's my problem..
Makes sense to me. I think the problem with installing a capacitor on the ac side is that anything in the system can access it. I think upsizing the capacitor post-rectifier would fix it, but thats internal and not practical on screw in bulbs. Probably easy enough on integrated led ‘fixtures’. FWIW none of my led ‘fixtures’ flicker, and all my screw in bulbs do.yes! bulbs with smaller capacitors to buffer AC power will dim more easily.
grid usually does not droop voltage that much in some areas. but an inverter will likely droop more on big loads, revealing the bulbs with small energy buffers.
or at least this is my theory ?
