Hmm poloticians: I used to.encourage people to vote but when there's no one worth voting for and they are so self centred and only looking out for themselves however good the intention end up corrupted by the system I can't as said above be arsed. :) Two business's ruined by short sighted tory...

I see little to stop one trying. At the end of the day can you demonstrate your instalation is compliant? Does the equipment comply with the requirements for feed in? What is the worst that happens they say no and your no worse off. However as the market adapts its highly likely that say yes...

Agreed, with all things the lack of knowledge can be dangerous to one's health and expensive. It's often hard to balance education against qualification especially where diy is concerned. Luckily most of the population is not capable and will always defer to an electrician. I agree they need to...

Please review the videos. Also importantly the octopus revised terms and conditions. This should answer your question rather than adding any variables myself. One thing is clear the industry is evolving although much that seems regulatory often isn't as it seems.

Agreed however Octopus will do it for you now. And yes doing it oneself it's not as complex as made out elsewhere by some. Get some cash back if you switch. Use this link to sign up to Octopus - https://share.octopus.energy/dusk-brook-895

OK I'm.going to stop you there. I suggest you read our other posts. Maybe the kit is correct for you. Please do a little more reading to ensure expectations on where you purchase are met. Many products are now compliant. The sunsynk 8k is a good choice. Octopus as posted elsewhere have also...

Hmm, always interesting to see others views. I would not go for seplos and select a pace based bms probably from orient power eu and pay the premium.for the Jakkipper battery but that's not a kit. It's good to have different knowledgeable varied opinions. Andy on YouTube the off grid garage...

Some.confusion seems to exists concerning MCS. At one point MCS was a good however 5he market has evolved and as Competent qualified people we should not have had to comply and do other certification when covered in our exsiting skillset. Octopus have basically deregulated the process. They...

Octopus has changed the rules. No MCS required. If you have one ideal. Otherwise one can self certify. There are some intersting videos on the subject on YouTube. Personally I think this is good news as Electricians competent qualified people should not require MCS certification, it was a...

Ohh octopus will do the DNO application ect if on feed in tariff.

HI, your on an interesting journey, research as you are, lots of it. Hybrid vs AC grid attached, value exists to both, you need to think about priorities. Inverters I only comment on what I have tested, so far Sunsynk, some issues with support but if using an installer you should be ok, do I...

A nice voltage chart for anyone who stumbles on the thread. As others say Ansys garage on YouTube is very good. https://footprinthero.com/lifepo4-battery-voltage-charts

Thank you. Yes I mention Andy in the above and for those that missed it a voltage chart link to help others. I'm.yet to look at victron and yes would have done things differently and it brings up more questions in respect to business development. Batteries again as mentioned these are built to...

Just a quick post as requested to say hello. My background is varied from communication systems and information technology both hardware,. Software and networks through to electronics and engineering " qualified competent" are the words often used however I'm always happy to learn and listen...

Cool many thanks I will try that tomorrow. I had.been using the one from.thr fogstar site and had.not located the Jakipper one. Any tips on the volatges you ended up.using?
