    Luxpower SNA5000 Issue

    Sorry for the delayed response. I had excellent backup tech service from Luxpower right after I posted here. They accessed my inverter remotely via wifi, and changed a few settings to make it work. System now works as intended, and only uses eskom power if the panels cant provide enough power...

    Luxpower SNA5000 Issue

    The SNA5000 is Cape Town City approved. Also as mentioned Export has been disabled. According to Luxpower SA you dont need a CT Clamp if you not exporting. They are busy setting up my system remotely at the moment. Lets see what the outcome is

    Luxpower SNA5000 Issue

Working fine during loadshedding, and also when power is on. When selecting the "PV&AC Take Load Jointly" option something weird happens with my...

    MUST 3KW PV18-24 Inverter Setup

    As long as the "floating" at 28.8 volts doesn't damage the batteries I'm all for it.

    MUST 3KW PV18-24 Inverter Setup

    Noted that the equalization setting is a no go! I will make sure its disabled again. I have a Victron Battery Balancer connected for that function anyway.

    MUST 3KW PV18-24 Inverter Setup

    So I have spoken to the importer/seller of this inverter. He mentioned that the inverter will never go higher than the specified floating voltage on the screen itself. But he mentioned that the inverter will use the bulk voltage (29.2Volts) to bring the battery up to floating voltage and leave...

    MUST 3KW PV18-24 Inverter Setup

    So I have tried this and the battery indeed charges to the 28.8volt as required. My next question will be is this safe for the batteries to be at that voltage the whole time?

    MUST 3KW PV18-24 Inverter Setup

    What voltages would you recommend for your 12volt bronze lithium batteries? Is it true that the built in BMS will avoid overcharging of the batteries?

    MUST 3KW PV18-24 Inverter Setup

    Thanks for the quick response, its a pity if thats the case. Im not 100% happy with raising the float voltage, and damage the batteries i bought from you etc.

    MUST 3KW PV18-24 Inverter Setup

    Morning All Ive recently acquired lithium batteries for my inverter setup at home. Need to shed some light as im new to lithiums. After each loadshedding schedule, my batteries return to float charging instead of bulk charge and then float charge like lead acids do. Is this normal? Charging...

    Inverter Monitoring Applications / SmartClient & SmartEss

    Afternoon all, I recently acquired an ACDC 3KW Hybrid Inverter. Model PV18-3KW24, seems like a MUST Inverter copy. I bought a WiFi unit that plugs into the inverter (PV18-Wifi 14). Followed included instructions and it connects and works but not happy with the interface. It is very basic and...
