- Today we unbox some nice upgrades to use on my 48 volt power system, this will be version 2.0, adding another battery, a split phase inverter and a backup charger. Build video coming soon

Great content the cats were a bonus!❤
You are in Texas? Glad you don’t seem to be affected by the storms. Knock wood!
Hah yes we were lucky!
Ohhhh ok I didn't see this video have your upgrade this was the inverter I was referring to but I see you went ahead and upgraded to the 6000xp
Wish I didn't live so far North... To my south is a bunch of 60 foot pine trees on the neighbor's property. Love this content though...
Congrats Bud, seen you growing with you systems. Looking forward to this set up.. the 220 split ph is awesome for the whole house setup.... you went all out ! post up some of your thoughts on that EG4 Inverter... I'm on the fence on it... about to go 48 volt and going to a Victron but they have that Issue that when you plug in the grid they just bypass everything unless you do a bunch of programing from what I understand...
@@mikeq5664 thanks for the comment, it’s up and running, I have a build video will be releasing here shortly, it’s a very nice unit, very happy with it so far! I’ve already ran 600 kwh through it no issues, connected to 10kwh of batteries and 3kw of solar. Victron stuff I’ve heard is good but the eg4 has been awesome.
The chargeverter is just a old server power supply in a box with pretty wires. That company found a genius business model.
The 6000XP is no upgrade. It's a high frequency, transformerless inverter that offers a poorer surge capacity and a shorter life expectancy than low frequency transformer based inverters. In addition its not even legal to install in your home as an ESS system in the U.S. because it lacks UL9540 certification.
I see your point, it’s really only an upgrade for my because of split phase capacity. But if it last 5-10 years I’d be happy, and I agree low frequency is the way to go, just way heavier and have a slightly higher idle power draw
