My 40'x60x' barndo is fully off-grid: solar, water capture, and septic. 40 x 400w panels, 3 x 6000XPs, and 5 x 5120kWh LL-2 batteries. The barn has a heat pump hot water heater, 3 ton and 2 ton HVAC, and one 12K BTU mini split.
Right now, SOC drops to 60% overnight and is fully charged by noon. We shall see what the winter holds.
Originally the EG4 monitoring app only showed how each inverter was doing. There was no way to show a combined view of solar production and station consumption. After an email exchange, they were able to add a combined view to the list of dongle IDs. I use this combined view most of the time.
I would like a way to "acknowledge" or archive events in the log. Don't delete them. Just move them out of the current view so that new events show in the list.
Big thing is what do I do with all the solar watt-hours that are not being used? I need a way to store 50kWh of solar production every day.

There are four strings of ten panels. The master inverter has two strings. The second inverter has two strings. The third inverter is only connected to the 600a bus bars.
Power is combined in a subpanel then fed into the main load center.

This is an awesome set up. I love the lay out. I just see so much power not being captured (I get so greedy, I want to capture it all!!). What a phenomenal system!!!!
