There are suitable crimpers available on ebay for £16. The pre-crimped cable is £66. I could then resell as I'm unlikely to use again. However, I'll visit my local electrical shop and factors first, also ask my electrician who I'll need to connect to CU.👍

Wow. That's deffo the tool to have. £6.95!! Looks too good to be true? Shame delivery is not till 10th March.

So I've just bought Battery Cable Ring Crimps from ebay. 35mm2. Thinking I can fashion something to crimp them using the bench vice. I see there's a tool that basically punches the connector on.

Just realised that I've ordered the wrong size crimps anyway. Ah well, they may come in handy at some stage. Will have to think again.:(

Yeah, I'm not happy with it. Thanks for making my mind up for me. I've ordered the crimped connectors. Hoping my crimper is man enough for the job!🤞

ITS supplied a DC switch to go between the battery and inverter. The cables from the inverter have the correct terminals to connect to the switch. However, the cables from the battery don't (battery to battery connectors supplied) and you have to cut a connector off and crimp round connectors...

Excellent. That explains it all perfectly. Yeah, that's the way I can get it all connected up. Thanks very much.

Is that ethernet cable?

Excellent...I can do that.

That's the one.:D

Do I just hard wire from the consumer unit?

Looking to install this in our porch and see some immediate problems: The solis hybrid inverter (RAI-3K- 48ES-5G) comes with an Acrel smart meter. Ideally I'd like to mount this in the cupboard that houses the consumer unit and all the solar metering. However, the RS485 cable which plugs between...

OMG! My battery and inverter from ITS arrived yesterday. They had advised that delivery would be 7th November and to make sure I was in. It was therefore lucky I was here. Battery came on a pallet and the inverter came on a separate overnight courier. Funny how you get an instant email to...

Ha ha. Sounds a bit like my battery order.😅

Wonder if there's a database of installed chargers? I was asked if I had an EV when I enquired to be accepted on Go.

Worth a try. They stressed to me that an EV was required. Anyone on here using it I wonder? If so, were you asked to confirm you have an EV? Seems a ridiculous condition anyway. You're just charging a battery right?!

Hi there I can't comment on the reliability of this setup but would say that they are established names and likely to be as good as other makes. With the warranties, it would seem fine to me. Why don't you price up how much you could buy the equipment for? You'll then see the margin the...

Thanks Gian. :) No, it's an open porch that I built. Won't get hot and the equipment will stay dry.(y)

The permission from the DNO only lasts for a year, after which I'll need to reapply. Hope they get them before next June then!!:ROFLMAO: I saw Wuhan is locked down again.... 4 covid cases!!

Solis still telling ITS August for the inverter apparently. ITS tell me they think it is more likely September.:(.
