You’ve got an iPhone yeah ?

This is what throws me ! SE full - very little Pv Pw thinks it’s all solar …. So Tesla app ‘solar ‘ is only real solar when SE full , otherwise it’s ‘solar ‘ is solar + SE discharge . Real PV is what SE app shows . Both apps show grid import ( though measure it differently ! ) regardless of who imports .

I think that is exactly what happens . SE fills first ( but it would / it’s on the PV side of the inverter ) . I *think* PW will only get PV when SE is full . DNO wouldn’t give me anymore . 3.68 on inverter AND a PW ( effectively an inverter also ?!????! ) . In my locality you wouldn’t get that now . Tbh - export I don’t care about .

I shall answer my own question! My new array can generate more than 3.68kw . So in a Tesla world any generation greater than that would be clipped . As the SE is DC it can take generation above that . So clipping will only occur when SE is full and generation is greater than 3.68kw . If I wait patiently someone will be along to spoil my understanding.

My mum told me “ don’t trust a man that won’t show you his pants “ . I’ve not seen yours so I don’t trust your comments. Photo of pants first please .

Circumcised? 😂🙄👍

As usual I started it all serious and helpful . Then @Onoff came along 🙄

Suck on this - bitch

Sorry , mis understood the title …

Yes . For the sake of a cable you can leave under the island Id do it !

6.4 is better than none . In summer when you aren’t using what you generate, battery full you’ll be exporting . Then as night sets in; swmbo , kids , will eat through 6.4kw in minutes !

You were always my favourite!

12k ( the invoice doesn't break that down ). So that's an additional 4k PV with optimisers, new inverter, SE 10k battery, scaffolding, labour etc. ( no vat of course ). Also of course I have my original PW and PV costs. Installer told me wait for a Tesla is 18months and SE 9 months. They accept the deposit but can't guarantee the price; so if in 18 months time the price has inflated ( which we can assume it will ) then you get your deposit back. Equally, they can't guarantee stock that far in the future. Personally I'd find an installer - pay the deposit and wait ( to save!) at least you are in the very long queue.

Yes one thing that confuses me ; I’ve gone from a 4K pv array to 8k . Yet my pv generation is clipped at 3.66k ( due to inverter I assume ) . So what’s the real benefit of 4K over 8k in this situation? . Naturally my understanding is probably the flaw 😁🙄

Pv was 4kw with just PW pv now 8kw with optimisers, pw and se battery ( new inverter aswell ) Optimistic ? . Actually did it yesterday . 23kw 100% full and ended exporting 😁 Currently draining pw into my EV with the hope solar production will refill it today . In winter you are indeed correct . My ambition is at off peak rate to fill 23kw . Should in theory (!!!) never ever use peak rate again . Boom !

Yeah sorry . This inverter replaced previous one ; so all pv through it

It was to graphic for your little eyes

Se and pw playing nicely at the moment. Currently charging my EV at max rate (7.2kw ) . Pw supplying 5 . Solar currently less than 1 . Se picking up the slack .

Here you go

Sorry - forgot to check ! Busy day trying to get it all working !!

If you really want cheap buy an old Cisco poe switch off eBay ( I have one lying around ) . Works fine - but even by after changing the 7 fans is too noisy . Those net gear ones are fanless 🙄 . You can have my poe switches if you want ( you can pay postage ) - think I’ve got 2 . So they are big and a bit noisy .

Just buy a poe switch then chain them together if you need more .

Yes - my kind of thinking !

Big kisses 😘 back to you . More technology. More complexity. More issues ! . Distractions from finishing the build !!! 😂
