All things Sunsynk (Deye, Inge, etc...)

I might have to apologize to people on this thread for joking about the sunsynk app not sending notifications, it seems mine have stopped as well.

I havent had loadshedding for a few weeks, but had a big power outage in the early hours of this morning.
I didnt receive any notifications that the grid was down.
So I checked on android notifcation settings and the sunsynk app isnt even listed there for notifications. (Thought maybe the notifcations were sleeping)
Also checked permissions and there is nothing related to that in there.

Anyone else on android not getting notifications from the sunsynk connect app anymore?
I also updated to the latest app version to make sure.

I have the sane problem, think it was an update.
 
Notifications still working for me on iOS, last loadshedding was Tuesday evening and got both notifications.

Although I have my system linked to HA and my Google Home speaker announces when the power goes down/up :laugh:

Have you got a link to the automation for this?

Mine literally just checks the grid frequency from the inverter and if goes below 45 then it triggers the speaker to play (and opposite for power on).

My automation was set up in the UI, but this is what the yaml looks like:

YAML: 
- id: '1686143957296'
  alias: Grid outage
  description: ''
  trigger:
  - type: value
    platform: device
    device_id: fce2a0569dcc0f725876b254155d399e
    entity_id: sensor.grid_frequency
    domain: sensor
    below: 45
  condition: []
  action:
  - service: media_player.play_media
    target:
      entity_id: media_player.office_speaker
    data:
      media_content_id: media-source://tts/google_translate?message=Grid+power+has+been+lost&language=en-ca
      media_content_type: provider
    metadata:
      title: Grid power has been lost
      thumbnail: https://brands.home-assistant.io/_/google_translate/logo.png
      media_class: app
      children_media_class:
      navigateIds:
      - {}
      - media_content_type: app
        media_content_id: media-source://tts
      - media_content_type: provider
        media_content_id: media-source://tts/google_translate?message=Grid+power+has+been+lost&language=en-ca
  mode: single
 
Cable theft is very rife in my neck of the woods. It happened again last night or early this morning. Battery was almost flat and my inverter has been beeping the whole morning. It just stopped a few minutes ago since the battery is charging. We'll be lucky to have power back today.
This is more reason why I went solar. I just need to add more panels and an extra battery.

I wish the Deye 8kw has this option. It is an extremely irritating sound.

So eventually got around to trying out the "Low Noise" mode.

Anyone know if there is any downside to this mode? Increased wear/less efficiency/batteries spontaneously exploding?

Have been running it for about 5months with no issues
 
Quick bit of advise pls chaps.

I have added a second revov 10.1kw 200ah R200 battery to the system in parallel.

Just confirming I increase the capacity to 400ah, increase charge to 120amps but leave discharge at 160 amps??

I assume 8K Sunsynk?
The 8K can safely charge and discharge at 190A, and your two Revovs in parallel can do 320A both ways. So you can set both to 190A.
