Hi john
Good to hear from you.
Your system charges at above Outback programmed amp setpoints?
And in a sort of cyclical way? Sometimes it’s normal for an hour then will go
to 2x charge rate then back down then maybe 1.5.
I talked to a senior Outback tech and they haven’t heard of this issue
Happy New year All,
I'm sure most have heard of this technology, using excess PV-powered motors
to raise large weights to the top of a tower, then slowly lowering them to
release energy, the motors now rotating as generators.
I've only read articles of a few of these under construction on a utili
Kirk, wrenches,
There are several gravity storage systems out there in the renewable energy
industry. I did water lift and drain back through lift pumps and
hydro-electric. No different than all storage systems, it's all about
capacity. Great talks

Hey Jay.
The AC input Amps should be the "Total" Amperage the inverter uses for
pass-thru and charging. Having the AC In at five and the Charger at five
may be what is causing the pulsing. Something else to consider the
charging output of the inverter is not monitored very closely so there is
A one metric ton weight on a 30 meter tall tower has a potential energy of 81
watt hours. I’d stick with batteries.
The only places gravity storage works are where you have “free” height and huge
amounts of free weight. That is, an existing lake at a good elevation for
pumped storage.
