    Is this what it should be?

    Just opened the packaging for an invertor I've got ready for a solar install on my house, what I thought I had order is a solis hybrid 6k ( RHI-6K-48ES-5G) but the one that's come has S5-EH1P5K-L on the box, is it the same (I don't think it is) or do I need to sort out with bimble tomorrow? Cheers

    Choosing solar panels.

    Cheers binky Ja is 20.0 and 84.8 for the 25 years and says split cell Trina is 20.5 and 84.8 and says 1/3 split cell So really not a lot in it. Trina says it hasn't got a lip on it so can't fit a bird deterrent so that might be the reason not to go for it

    Google Nest Doorbell troubleshooting

    I've not fitted any of the new ones but the old ones you need to upgrade most transformers to a 16-24v one, bg do a good one and the indoor chime would work fine, if wired with the chime connector, that would also mean you don't have to charge it up too.
