@newsolarproject I don't think in off-grid mode it would pick up for 100A loads but I don't know since I can live with 50A max load so the grid has be...
@newsolarproject you will want to run in off-grid mode and not bother backfeeding. Not only do they pay your next to nothing for your generation but t...
@timmann great minds think alike! I put mine up in 2 strings with the front the low pitch(SoCA) roof and the back rack a small 7 panel set angled at ...
@timmann that's a big load to cover so I can see the need for lots of panels and batteries. Hopefully that 18kPV is enough for all that output. I rebu...
@timmann thanks and wow, sweet setup. I've only got 3 16kWh DIY batteries, an EG4 18kPV and 16 400W panels. But gives us enough to go without using an...
@timmann sorry, I forgot that #2 was Pylon specific and that is the one you want since Basengreen doesn't add anything extra to their Pylon protocol l...
@timmann I have v2 of the Basengreen DIY battery too. FYI, the cells are 314Ah so you calculate total capacity/storage by multiplying by 51.2V so we ...
It's only a 3 ton HVAC condenser but I've read that there can be high harmonics when HVAC condensers, heat pumps or well pumps kick on.Does anyone hav...
Depending on your skill set there is an option which combines 2 open source projects. To get data from your EG4 inverter( 18kPV and 6000 supported ) t...
@lemming regarding getting the Update Time data from Python Protocol Gateway, I didn't find it in the spec( EG4-18KPV-12LV-Modbus-Protocol ) for thing...
@lemming I've been using Python protocol Gateway(PPG) to talk to my EG4 18kPV and since it exports MQTT I'm pulling in the data to Home Assistant from...
Never mind, I now see that to see the battery data on the front monitoring page we need a 'premium' account to see that battery data. It is available ...
@jared Since the LuxPower battery protocol included battery voltage, amperage, temp, max/min cell V. , cell Temperature, and battery capacity should ...
Nice work! You might take a look at Python Protocol Gateway() to see if there's anything missing in your implementation. I'm using PPG with my EG4 18...
