Will this only work if you are off grid? I'm trying to figure out if this can work when the grid is connected and it would seem like the answer is no. Still would be a great solution for me here in Houston when the grid goes down. In that event, if I follow the video...I could hook up my 15,000 watt generator...set the 18k to say...pull 12,000 watts...and then when my load exceeds 12,000 it would pull from PV and batteries. Am I thinking about this the right way?

Hi, have you connect the 6000Xp to a single phase 240 volts ?

Thank for the video! BUT, it is hard for me, a first time owner of a 6000EP, to FOLLOW what you are doing and what is happening on the screen. It would be very helpful if you explained what was on the screen and what you are doing when you keep pressing the buttons and the screen keeps changing, without any explanation as to why and what the items are that appear, especially at the top of the screen that you gloss over. Appreciate the video and gave “thumbs up” for doing it…..BUT, I’m more confused than when I started.😂

Seems like these should be preset at 90% start 95% stop 🤔

Awesome thanks for the update, I swapped my 2 6000xps for the 18kpv today and charged my tesla on 40 amps for 3 hours as it's break in test lol

Can you look at my JD LX 176 Please, it was never maintained But I mowed yesterday

I appreciate the videos you are posting. Just tried to do this on my inverters have two eg4-18KPVs have a grid connected and lowered them both down to to 10 amps but I did not see anything being pulled from the grid side? Is there another setting I need to use? Thank you

Thanks for sharing. I wish they would put this on their website or in the manual, because I just found out the same thing after spending a lot of money on this stuff. Next i'm thinking about using a transformer... Have you went down that route?

Garbage video. Good idea - bad implementation. Jumping over menus like a monkey.

what are you using for a fan exhaust deflector ?

I lost communication when I updated the battery firmware. I just switched the baud rate from 9600 to 19200 and now my communication is good. I'm not using their inverter so I'm not worried about the boot failure. I'll leave it at 19200.

There seem to be quite a few LiFePo4 battery conversions on youtube that do not include a pre-charge circuit and are reported to work fine. I'm currently sourcing batteries for my conversion and I don't want to make extra work for myself if not necessary. I'm curious if you added the pre-charge circuit because you were experiencing trouble with BMS tripping, or you simply thought it would be a good idea? Pre-charge resistors are common for inverters, but I have to wonder if the inverters might have larger capacitors leading to higher inrush currents. If nothing else, the pre-charge circuit might extend the life of the main contactor, although many contactors have a separate hardened contact intended to deal with arcing when opening or closing the contactor.

thank you for this video.

May I suggest a large C-Clamp….

thanks for the video, i have a question , is this bar gets old ? and what is the felling changing it , left -right stability or suspention ? thank you again

I own an T2 ab , there was a squik squik in the front system , i thought it was greese, or absorvers, , i got unter the car and i realise that the steering absorver is missing, Or stolen , or the mechanic forgot it somewhere on the proses, anyway thanks , this little video helped two T2 (me and a friend) to change the absorver, they were asking 100 euros for this, but couse of you we only paid for the part (45 euros) The squick did not go away, but anyway probably thats the rea son i got the problem in the first place , anyway thank you again from Athens

Glad to hear things are still running smoothly for you! I'm still shocked when I look at my usage numbers and think..."wow we produced (and used) that much power!"...crazy!

Hey, I know this is from 5 months ago but I was able to get 120v charging to work with mine I don't know if it was a firmware change or not but its working now. Connection I used was Hot on line 2 and Neutral on Line 2. and I was able to charge. Note that the output while on the grid was not correct as it was only 60 volts from line to neutral. The other thing that I noticed was that I needed around 650 watts or more of charging to get it to work

I think this would work if you wired it like this: The generator's 120V output (hot wire) would be connected to both the L1 and L2 input terminals on the EG4 6000XP. The generator's neutral wire would be connected to the inverter/charger's neutral input terminal. The generator's ground wire would be connected to the inverter/charger's ground input terminal.

Wow, thanks you got me unstuck, i updated my batteries before setting up the hub you and you really helped me out. Changing baud rate to 19200 worked great

When the inverters bypass to grid, how many watts/amps will the 6000XP's in parallel bypass. Is it a total of 50 amps per unit? If it goes over that does it disconnect from the load completely, or is that the breaker size that limits the output?

Is there a setting for making sure the generator only charges the batteries when my battery soc is low and i manually start it? I am using 1 6000xp, 1 powerpro battery and honda 6500 generator for reference 🤔

Can i wire a honda 6500 240v generator into the generator input of the 6000xp to avoid using a chargeverter?

Thank you so much for posting these videos, I'm connecting a honda 6500 to a clients tomorrow 🙌

great video. These are nice set up, pairing these up with lev60 cell bank would be great 55 kwhr energy storage and charge at supper off peak at .03 a kwhr would be a steal, plus when selling for .08 back making .05 kwhr of power purchased. .08 sell back and .03 buy back from 11 pm to 5 am is a killer deal. Thanks for the video for showing us how to navigate through the menu.

I purchased the 46500 brand new in the box still signature solar is willing to give you $1,200 bucks back to switch over to the 6000 the issue I have is it will my Westinghouse 4500 watt inverter generator that is only single phase but 30 amp will that generator work on the 6000 XP for at minimum to charge the battery Bank I seen one of your comments said you'd use a small generator as well I was just wondering if you can use a 120 single phase inverter generator and maybe make a jumper wire to provide 110 to both legs enough to charge the batteries or there's a switch to switch the generator input to 120

Damn so you cant make a portable generator cart with the 6000XP like you can with the 3k and just charge it with 120V 20A plug? I was hoping i could so some slow charging on my wall outlet and then have 240V available for running some loads in a pinch. Sounds like i am going to have to pick up the 3K instead

Thank you!! Been struggling with my 73 that I can’t fill up with fuel completely because of this. Never knew there was a piece of hose there, thanks!!

Hey boss. These are just the calculations I needed. Thanks for the explanation! I’m building a larger electrical mobile unit out of an enclosed trailer I’ve converted to be powered by the 6000xp with 10.2kwh server no alternator charge tied. My biggest question is grounding the system in a mobile application with no grid tie. Is grounding to the frame fine because of wood blocks and rubber tires. Or do I need to tie the ground to a rod at every location. I’m worried times I’ll be around pavement only. Thanks again boss!!

Did you try a jumper between L1 and L2? Some units simply need to see 120v OR, does it need to truly be a split phase 240v?

Is it possible in any way to simultaneously use grid and battery with a single or parallel 6000xp?

Nice little project!

Does the general have to be an inverter generator

I assume your two 6000XP’s are wired in split phase? If so, is only one dedicated to Grid, Gen, Battery and PV input?

I just got my second server rack of 6. Any input on the best way to wire them together? I’m new at this. Thanks

Dude wire the neutral(white) to the neutral bus bar NOT to L2, it will work! also it will work if you get an extensions from each leg(that would be 2 extension cords) and connect them together, you will see 240v.

Well, this is wired wrong. If you wire correctly it will show 120V... however still does not charge... and yeah, signature solar assured me it would. Needs to be true 240 split phase too btw.

hey renaissance man im learning alot from u but question... can i not have grid connection and generator connection at the same time,because when i do i cant get 6000xp to pull from generator... any thoughts....

I cant get my generator a 5.5 kw generac to connect to the inverter. Just show the voltage and hz on the screen of the inverter and clicks on once every five mins for 4 seconds. The 18k just does not like it. Gen has a floating neutral and floating neutral wired on the inverter and bonded neutral in the main power panel. Cycles hz and voltage is in spec. Perimeters are set wide enough for the cycles and volt fluctuation. My head is going crazy on this.

What did you do with the other gauges?

I sure hope there is something insulating between those two pcbs

RIP screen, I like to leave the plastic on it make a good screen protector

How do i set it up to As long as there is sun and battery, i dont want to use gird, But inwant the gird to kick automatically when those dont exist. How doni set it up to do that. Right now if i have the gird breaker on, it is charging the. Battery from the gird, and powering my load from the gird. Help

First video i saw going through the settings on the screen

Probably would have been a little bit safer if you turned it off or done it before installation 😂

Those fans are loud. Before this video I was seriously contemplating on getting one installed in the bedroom closet

What's a communication hub

What's a communication hub

Thanks for the video. So the eg4 hub is allowing you to use both it And SA to monitor the batteries? Would you be able to run it the same way with out the eg4 hub?

Better hope you don't have cold solder joint or any micro fractures that can lead to hot spots in your solar module cells that will cause arcing and roof fires running at such a high OC DC voltage. I've seen the results of plenty of module fires over the past 25 years.
