 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

Since having the Fuse boxes updated and the correct Generator (Inverter) feed cable installed, and still running our larger 3.6kW Water heater, I decided to power our Dual oven and 6 zone Bosh Ceramic Hot plate from the Inverter as well. We were using a smaller desktop oven / air fryer up until now. That means the only thing now on mains is the 15 year old Solar Feed-In Inverter and 2.8kW array, in other words, it's all feed-in with ZERO mains consumption. The good thing about the Bosh bench top is that it time slices multiple hot plates, so average load is not additive, and the Dual Oven draws less than I had anticipated. The result is that we occasionally see loads of around 13kW, but it could be more if the washing machine was on a Hot wash and set to dry the load when the wash cycle was over. Now this is only a problem for the Battery bank at night, and so far I've still had over 50% charge left in the morning, the Inverter has absolutely no problem, not even a single light flicker with big loads cycling on and off. Obviously if the weather was bad we would be very mindful of power usage, but at the moment we are operating as though we are on Mains, room lights left on (wife), ceramic heaters in bathrooms (it's winter) and a couple of air conditioners, one running all night on really cold nights, 6 security lights and ambient lights in the back yard, in other words, just pigging out on power usage and still not running the Batteries down  _ Edited 2025-09-10 15:39 by KeepIS NANO Inverter: Full download - Only Hex Ver 8.1Ks |
