Dilemma - battery location

Hello all, So, regarding the best, or least worst, place to keep my expanding collection of battery storage gubbins, et al. At the moment, all the PV & battery stuff is located in the attic roof space of my kitchen. A number of SE inverters plus some Lux LXP3600 units, Pylontech US2000/US2000C b...

Re: Any day now 🤞

And they’re here 😁 A tad frustrating as the DPD tracker went from “we have your shipment details, but no package as yet”, to being delivered all within 2 hours! Hey ho. But they have landed on the door mat & that’s the main thing. So that’ll keep me busy into the new year - although I can’t get ...

Re: Any day now 🤞

Just a comment on one point: Luxpower ACS 3600 (the parallel version) can be connected to the same battery stack. I currently have two connected to three Pylontech US5000's. There is an advantage to this: During the time that you don't need more than one inverter to discharge the battery, you can s...

Re: Any day now 🤞

What's your plan for them? At the moment I have two Lux ACS 3600 units with 5 Pylon US2000 on each and also a Chinese stack each. It’s been in a year and works well. The only minor issue is that I now have more storage than I can charge on my Octopus Go 4 hour window overnight. Two Lux units gives ...

Re: Any day now 🤞

Any plans for more solar PV to help fill those batts in the sunnier months ? :xx: Might have 🤐. Actually yes, but it’s bitter/sweet really as I have lots of lovely south facing roof space available that I’m not allowed to use due us living in a listed property in a conservation area. I’ve had some ...

The new total gross will be just shy of 62kWh. Any plans for more solar PV to help fill those batts in the sunnier months ? :xx: Might have 🤐.

Solar Edge inverters available

Hi all, I’ve just posted an ad in the for sale section for some Solar Edge inverters with a decent amount of warranty remaining. These are the smaller current model HD wave models without the LCD display. Only for sale following a rationalisation in moving from multiple smaller inverters to a single...

Re: Any day now 🤞

Crikey that's a lot of battery storage! Size envy incoming... Ha ha, have been collecting Pylons since 2019 - but the BIG upgrades were inspired from here going back a year or so 👍 I have a decent skite of cash coming back to us in March. Looks like I'm not going to get an increase to further inves...
