Getting it via USB hooked to a raspberry pi, implemented a fantastic github project hxxps://github.com/ned-kelly/docker-voltronic-homeassistant Runs into my HASSio install via MQTT with other automations via node-red. There's another ESP32 based one i came accross somewhere, cant seem to remember the link sha adrusa: |

earthrealm: Bro, shebi you have two functional kidneys nau. Humans can survive on just one of the pair of functioning organs in the body. The eyes, lungs, the kidneys, suprarenals, testes, et cetera. Heck even one hemisphere of the brain can be excised while the other fires on - okay, that one is not advisable. Just holla guys that pay for organ donation. 1 Like |

litaninja: Thanks. I realized what you were using after I asked. I have tried in the past to get that working with no success. However, solpiplog is doing the same thing. My grouse with solpiplog is that I can not find an x86_64 binary of the latest release and I also like keeping things in the docker. |

Goodmorning house, trust we are all in great spirits this weekend. Just came across this eflyer and it looked too worrying to be ignored. can a 0.85kva "solar solution with 4 panels" really handle all these for 24hrs? What do you feel is ideal for the loads mentioned if its a no..no for you.Pls share your thoughts on this For reliable power solutions Contact, Smartcell global services CALL:: 081-350-31951 WHATSAPP::: https:///2348170385620

Please expert in the house,is there really any difference in the efficiency of PWM CC compared to MPPT?I have attached 2 pictures of the current generated by both at about 10:30 am today.There isn't really any significant difference.The MPPT is connected to 260w x4 units of Felicity panels and is charging 2units of 200ah batteries in series while the PWM is connected to 160w x 4 units of Felicity panels charging 3 units of 105ah batteries in parallel.I really do not see much difference except there is something I am not analysing right.

ceaser: Bad wuked man I recall a thread where you were talking about a 3 stage 12v charger with pulse/restoration setting. On another thread, searched cudnt locate it again, can you help me?. Also the infinitum desulphator, who knows where i can get it and how much? |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 11:00am On Sep 26, 2020 |
omotoda: Normally with the number of panels connected to the MPPT you should see more hervest than the ones connected to pwm so unless the orientations are not the same I don't see why a 1kw+ should hervest same with a 700w+ |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 11:03am On Sep 26, 2020 |
omotoda: You connected the panels wrongly to the powmr cc, i see 27.6v i assume this is incoming panel voltage. To enjpy mppt connect the panels in series .4s1p or 2s2p. Secondly state of charge of the batteries plays a huge role in what the cc can send to them. To be doubly sure, hook up a 300w load to both setups and observe 1 Like |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by omotoda(m): 11:07am On Sep 26, 2020 |
earthrealm: Batteries are in 2s2p.The voltage you see as 27.6v is the battery voltage not panel voltage Below is panel voltage.

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by earthrealm(m): 11:49am On Sep 26, 2020 |
omotoda: Ok, likely state of charge issue then or diff panel orientation. Put 300w load on both setups and watch to rule out this variable. Mppt trumps pwm above 600w array, thats part of the reason an mppt costs 4x as pwm. The manufacturers are not madt |

earthrealm: Maybe orientation.One set is on the west while one is on the east.Although my roof is almost flat so I really do not see that affecting it. |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by mctfopt: 1:55pm On Sep 26, 2020 |
omotoda: Are both batteries on same state of discharge? A battery almost full will take lesser charge current. This test can only be fair if both batteries are same capacity and also at same state of discharge with PVs positioned in same location and angle. |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 2:18pm On Sep 26, 2020 |
omotoda: So this is not the way to determine if the MPPT is doing better. However I hope you can see that you need to review the orientation of the panels connected to the MPPT |

Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by SoftHeart(m): 6:45pm On Sep 26, 2020 |
Greetings all, I needed a solar inverter..., so after discussing with the seller, he recommends that 2.5kva would be best for the workload. I'm a complete novice, so I want to be sure that I'm getting the best. The seller gave me the system specs as follows; 2.5 kva, 2 batteries (200Ah), and 2 solar panels. I was thinking that the solar panels should be more than 2. Is that correct? Also, please what relevant questions should I ask the seller before making payment to be sure that I'm getting the best? Thanks in anticipation for your help. God bless! |
Re: Solar Energy, A Complement To FTA by ojeysky(m): 7:03pm On Sep 26, 2020 |
SoftHeart: It all depends on your load and what's the capacity of the panels? |
