Easy enough to install in our battery stack, and it's working well.
Be interesting to see it when we get over there!
Hey, what are your dip switch settings?
Did the additional battery increase the charg discharge rate of the older battery??
I'm about to add 4 x US5000 to my existing bank of 10 x US3000C. Reading the available information (Pylontech and Victron) it is strongly recommended that the new battery/batteries be individually charged to 100% (they ship at 50%) and the existing batteries should also be at 100% before the new batteries are connected in parallel to the rest. Then you should do the 15 minutes or so of idle time so that the batteries do a final equalising phase. Apparently, the batteries will not equalise properly unless this procedure is followed.
I have not come across that before, especially not from Pylontech. I do need to sort out a lead to plug my laptop into the batteries to see what is going on.
It doesn’t really matter which is your master, all you need to make sure that (as you say) the older ones (eg US2000) is that the end.
It probably doesn’t matter, but in the us5000 manual it shows putting the 3000s and 2000s underneath it.
What happened with powmr
I want to buy one but i still wetting for more research but I want to buy 10.2 kW do you think is better ?
I have no idea about other models of PowMr, just that ours only lasted eight months. They are sending me a new board to hopefully try to fix it.
@@Bensgarage if you keep the Growatt on sometimes blow with the air compressor inside and clean the dust because if the dust is settles the inverter is not gonna cool down and he’s going to create again the problem what you have 👍🏻
did u set menu 5 and 36 ?
Yes, did that when we first set it up a couple of years ago, it remembered the settings after fitting the new motherboard.
how long did growatt nowatt last ?
It's still working from when I fixed it, no idea how long it will last.
Hey Ben I think inverters are meant to be on an outside wall but under cover
Not necessarily, this is what it says in the manual.
Consider the following points before selecting where to install:
Do not mount the inverter on flammable construction materials. Mount on a solid surface
Install this inverter at eye level in order to allow the LCD display to be read at all times.
The ambient temperature should be between 0°C and 55°C to ensure optimal operation.
The recommended installation position is to be adhered to the wall vertically.
Be sure to keep other objects and surfaces as shown in the right
diagram to guarantee sufficient heat dissipation and to have enough space for removing wires.
