These 3/4" brass pins and lead saddles have been on the shelf at home since the late 1950's. Apart from melting the saddles down to make fishing leads, I cant see there ever being a use for them.

I'm sure I still have a couple of those wooden back boxes hiding behind plastic lighting switch plates in my 1960 house.

I actually did this with a girlfriend in about 1986, after a night out we got home to find I didnt have my keys. There was a metal framed front window with a small sash open. She was very slim and did exactly the same window dance with me standing outside lowering her by her ankles to the floor...

Looks like they used the seal wire from the meter and cut out to clamp the spoon to the screws :)

https://www.idnet.com/email-services.php?VAT_INC_EX=on#vat_selector_buttons I use the above service from £18/yr and you get support if needed. So it can be [email protected] quick and easy works well with thunderbird too.

I think if you were to use a tool like PbmsTools to view what's going on with your batteries overnight, you would see that stopping discharge at 15% isn't absolute and that there will be maybe 1-2% further discharge almost within minutes of the 15% cut off point, then further discharge due...

I have a Solis inverter and mine would go into loop mode and repeatedly self charge with the % set too close between force and over soc. At 1% difference yours is imo much too close. I settled for Overdischarge SOC which has a range of 6-40% at 15% and Forcedischarge SOC which has a range of...

Just to finish this off, I requested that if they wanted to send a meter reader to double check my photo and revised MCS meter serial number that they first contact me with an appointment. Of course out of the blue a Morrisons meter man appeared on the doorstep yesterday asking to read the...

My fit energy company contacted me about my generation meter, every 2yrs they send someone to certify its the same meter and its not been altered from the original on the MCS cert. This year they asked for a photo instead, I sent them one, 4 days later I get an email telling me my account is now...

I see Fogstar have quietly reduced the price of the 5.12kWh rack battery by £99.99 Now £1250.00

Ask Solis directly if their inverters will work together, when I inquired in the spring I don't think they had a 2 inverter solution, they did just bring out a new range which I think overcame the problem.

Its difficult to see from the pics, have you got 4 packs of 4 cells spread out on that shelf? and what model inverter?

Well confidence abounds then ;) I found using Smart connect to UK power networks fairly straightforward. I did lots of detailed drawings of my mains connections, existing and new equipment etc but I seem to remember having a snag that was my new inverter didnt seem to be on the approved list...

If you are confident enough or have a mate who will assist you in the build I would go for the Seplos kit, that way you know exactly what you are getting inside and out and saving a big chunk of money too. That's what I would do if I had to start again, you just need the confidence to go for it.

Welcome to the forum. I downloaded from Jakiper batteries website site this software PbmsTools_V2.5EN.zip. The password is 123456 That will enable you to change whatever you feel needs doing. Its what I use on a daily basis via my PC to monitor my Fogstar batteries.

We used to find them in dedicated computer rooms with big old mainframes and punch cards which required a clean supply.

Get a battery or two, you wont regret it, you will get better return on storing and using excess power than selling it. I had Solar since 2014 and adding batteries this year was the smartest move I made. https://www.fogstar.co.uk/products/server-rack-battery-48v-5-12kwh?

https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/saharan-dust-plume-forecast-uk-27653350 Its across the UK so dont expect good numbers this week.

You could have a play around with this utility and see what would happen, its set for Octopus flux tariffs but you can add your own. https://garydoessolar.com/utilities/dailymodellingutility/

https://garydoessolar.com/utilities/dailymodellingutility/ I've now spent a bit of time modeling the outcome of adjusting solar array performance to match my previous history of monthly generation divided by the months days to give a daily average for whatever season is selected. Plus seeing...
