Xanderone: It is a lot easier to do than you think. Once you get the hang of it, which is very easy to do, it becomes a part of you. And the reward is sweet. I don't buy any smart thing if I can not "flash it" and put it completely under my control. I have Sonoff, Victron, Axpert, Wemo, Emporia, ANT BMS, JK-BMS, JBD BMS, Felicity, Easun products, etc and I talk to them locally without using the manufacturers' apps or internet connection. 2 Likes |

Hey my brother, it took less than an hour or so for the system to shut down after installation. I suspect the 3.5kva inverter for that. The owner and installer beging look at each other. I have prepared the the owner Sha, so he just called to inform me of the outcome. I didn't press further to ask which action he took. Dam5reey1: |

Please how did these guys integrate this Growatt inverter with Google home assistant... She basically uses voice command to ask the inverter to switch from grid to solar only, or from aggressive power consumption to power saving mode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpaPxiwjtxw?si=tRskj2uOiodI9ikD 3 Likes |

For those intending to store inverter for long period(1yr and above), power on the inverter every few months(3 months) to ensure components stay in good working condition. This helps prevent capacitor degradation and keeps the battery charged(if still connected to battery). Dust, Heat, Extreme Cold & Hot Weather can affect the lifespan of internal components. 1 Like |

What if its still inside carton? TechGeek777: |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by TechGeek777: 8:43am On May 28 |
swagifted: Not sure about that, we need to asked those who stored theirs inside cartoons for like 2yrs if it develops fault before usage. Those who complained above should help us with this information. |

Is anybody vendor with Kartel/Smarten Inverter for sale here? and can also ship to Ibadan |

Things in Carton would usually have that Sillica gel that would deal with the humidity Also dust shouldn't get in but I haven't stored anything that long. swagifted: 1 Like |

adrusa:The last time I checked, you were still trying to get the communication aspect done on your Felicity inverter. Were you able to do it at last? I want to even replace my 5kw Felicity inverter and get another product with an easy/flexible communication protocol. I'll appreciate if you can contact me through my phone number here. 1 Like |

Seriously, how do you achieve this with JK and JBD BMS for example. I am sure I will need this for starters. Maybe you can also show how to achieve this with Axpert inverters. This will be very very useful adrusa: |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojesymsym: 9:27am On May 28 |
Do you think this your AC can be hooked into Home Assistant or controlled with node red? @Adrusa and other automation experts, are there ACs that one can regulate the temperatures based on the state of charge of the batteries? So that as the sun is going down, we can start increasing the AC temperature and reduce the cycling time. Xanderone: 1 Like |

I saw them installing over 650 number of 550w longi panels today in Justrite supermarket across the road, right in front of my Estate. That's over 300kw of pv . Big companies are turning to solar to power their businesses 2 Likes |

Compliant: no specs, no pictures of old and replacement inverter, no details about battery type/capacity... how can anyone know what to tell you naah ![]() mek we dey try reason things comprehensively naah.. the 2nd hand inverter u got is the problem, since ur old inverter charged ok. either it has a charging problem or the charging current is very low, these are issues beyond your paygrade to shoot, so best you get your installer to help you check...or you roll up ur sleeve and skill up. watch youtube videos, google...n understand the basics first. 3 Likes |

durodee:Update on this review: I recently installed 2 more of this CC : one for my use and one for a friend. Both CCs behaved different from previous installs. 1) They get much hotter than the older make. I suspect the fan speed. The new ones have fans that are very silent but not as efficient as older variants. Temps of the new ones got as high as 65°C despite the fan being on! 2) The temperature sensor gauges differently on the old and new variants ans could be off by almost 5-10 degree 3) On a good note, harvest seems better than the old variants How do you know which one you got? The OLD variants had a light that constantly blinks in the fan recess in front. 2 Likes

Wahala dey o. What now happens to those that stock then in warehouses for sale? Perhaps the problem occurs once it has been opened,used for a while and then taken back to storage. It may not happen if it is still tightly protected in it's original packages. mctfopt: 1 Like
