Jason beat me by a second. The RMA inverters will ship with an adapter cable that allows the IQ microinverters to plug into the old cabling system and talk to the legacy L-N Envoy. Let me know if you didn't receive the adapter cable. Cordially, Nick Soleil Enphase Energy Senior Product Man

Are you sure the boxes don't have conversion kits inside. They send us IQ7s with dongles to adapt to previous generations. The comms are not an issue, however sometimes you need to request firmware updates to make things work I've found. Jason Szumlanski Florida Solar Design Group On Wed, Apr 6,

Hello Wrenches, We received IQ7 inverters from Enphase as RMA replacements for failed legacy (M175 and M190) inverters. I understand the IQ7 PLC is line to line, and the legacy INV PLC is line to neutral. Have any of you successfully gotten a circuit with a mixture of IQ7 and legacy INV to communi

Hi Jason, Storz Power has a new wall mounted NEMA 3R enclosure that can fit 2 of their 5.12 kWh battery modules and can be stacked up to 80 kWh. Might be worth looking into. -Chris On Wed, Apr 6, 2022 at 3:47 PM frenergy via RE-wrenches < re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org> wrote: > You can easi

You can easily "clean-up" a Simplify install by using bus bars. If you spend a little time with steel wool, that copper looks pretty cool. Bill Feather River Solar Electric Bill Battagin, Owner 4291 Nelson St. Taylorsville, CA 95983 530.284.7849 CA Lic C-10 874049 On 4/6/2022 8:46 AM, Jerry Sh

The Fortress option looks pretty good, but it's not truly wall mount. I'm holding out hope for something that looks like a Powerwall or Enphase Encharge battery. I would probably just go ahead and use Powerwalls if they were actually available, and I really wish you could use Enphase for off-grid.

Fortress just released their outdoor enclosure for their eFlex battery which is already IP 65 rated. That enclosure also can have an additional enclosure for an outdoor Sol-Ark 12 K. https://www.fortresspower.com/products/durarack-indoor-outdoor-enclosure/ https://youtu.be/pyXdQqiVBso Maveric

I'm trying to find out what wall-mounted outdoor rated battery systems exist for completely off-grid systems - not grid-tied. This would be for a showcase job, so the packaging needs to be attractive and durable. I'm thinking about pairing it with a Sol-Ark 12K outdoor unit. It would need to be sca
