Anyone figure this out yet?Was also wondering about the grid disconnect notifications, they seem to pop up at random and when I check there isn't anything to show that there wasn't power from the grid.

Nope, been a while since I got the notifications. Must be a glitch in the matrix.Anyone figure this out yet?
My system gives me a notification for grid disconnects and reconnects. It started 2 weeks after the system was installed. There is no ON/OFF setting AFAIK but I am appreciative of the notifications.Anyone figure this out yet?
Whenever the inverter cannot or has no need to sync to the grid, it disconnects and that is when you get the notification. If you get a large number of on/off notifications in a short period the culprit is usually the grid voltage which goes outside the parameters you have set.Was also wondering about the grid disconnect notifications, they seem to pop up at random and when I check there isn't anything to show that there wasn't power from the grid.
I don't think either of them really have any decent notification options. At least not that I've seen.Is solarman smart a better option than the deye cloud app? I've set up my system on deye cloud, and would like notifications like battery full etc.


Good luck, hope you make it through.Not going to make it through the night if power is not restored.
We've been off since just before 8am sure to flooding of the sub station.
Even in this grey weather there's still enough to power the house.
Will not be running anything besides the basics. No geyser, sent the domestic home as she started her ironing and the fire is going after stocking up on 4 000 pieces of wood yesterday.

goodluck, never great when you have to start rationing power - have the rains in CPT been that hectic?Not going to make it through the night if power is not restored.

It's been a very wet May and June is not letting up. Check the cape Town weather thread for some of the pics from this week and last.goodluck, never great when you have to start rationing power - have the rains in CPT been that hectic?
Eish. You don't know someone who has a generator you can use to replenish your batteries? IIRC you have a decently sized bank which should last a good while if charged.Just received this pic of the flooded sub station. View attachment 1541017
Not at such short notice.Eish. You don't know someone who has a generator you can use to replenish your batteries? IIRC you have a decently sized bank which should last a good while if charged.

Not at such short notice.
I was saving up for a generator and might just get one tomorrow.
Still off and only likely to be restored tomorrow. View attachment 1541061
10% is the shutdown.At what SOC% have you set for the inverter to shutdown?
If it's 10%, you still have a good few hours left if you really only keep the bare essentials on.
10% is the shutdown.
Down to 17% now.
Torches and phones are charged, fire is going and there's enough gas to last a month so all good.Yeah, probably 2 hours max left. Sorry about that.
