Doug,
Enphase has suggested that solution and its a good one if the utility is
cooperative. Of course, they are under no obligation to be cooperative,
or to remain so. And unfortunately it looks like all the neighbors'
meters being served by a common transformer, and maybe even more beyond,

Todd,
They both belong to the same Premium battery category. They differentiate by
Ah size, although very close to each other:
ü L16RE-A is 323 Ah @ C20 @ 1.75VPC @ 80oF;
ü L16RE-B is 370 Ah @ C20 @ 1.75VPC @ 80oF;

Yes, correct, partial state of charge.

That's a brilliant solution, if the utility is cooperative.

Kent,
Typically the manufacturer is not to anxious to change the parameters
outside those set out in the UL 1742 standard. However, for this, I suspect
that is what is needed. They will probably need you to sign a waiver first,
which is what we had to do with SMA.
Do you have a scope to look at th

Enphase has the ability to remotely adjust the voltage and frequency
operating windows. They have adjusted them as far as they can, or will.
I have some SMA Sunny Boy inverters in locations that recently have

Wrenches,
I am curious if any of you solar thermal installers have had an anti-scald
valve failure that left the end user with 100% untempered, hot water? We
recently had a residential homeowner who purchased a Heliodyne system with
Watts valve five or six years ago see a tempering valve fail in
For more clarity, it does not matter the size or voltage of the battery. You
still need to achieve 0.5% or less of the rated capacity to consider the
battery 100% charged.

Marc suggested that you only charge the battery until the current is lowered to
2.5% to 3% of the rated capacity. Doing so will undercharge the battery,

While I agree with your assessment of Mick's settings, some of
what you write doesn't make sense to me, and I'd like to better
understand.

Yes, I expect they can. The greater issue is going to be whether the other
inverters are going to react also. Have you had any experience with other
inverters in this scenario?
I don't undertand why the meter manufacturer can't ensure the burst is
filtered out of the load connections. They have to
