Detailled stats during battery operation: https://pic8.co/sh/1lr5zu.png

Back to grid power: https://pic8.co/sh/4e6C4p.png

It's been 1.5 years in the making, half of that for all the components to arrive. Most of the rest was procrastination, some of it caused by fear I wouldn't be able to get it done. :)

The name of a reputable dealer for them in the US would be nice...

Had all this semi-relevant shit written up and it was eaten by the internet... (Edit: Oh look, it's just below this post!)

Here's the gist of it. I'm German, so tough shit with US dealers.

Find a dealer you can trust. If possible, ask a friend just like if you were a woman and out to buy a used car. :)

I kinda figured you were German, which is why I asked about US dealers and not dealers in general. As for asking a friend, there aren't many who have solar, and almost everyone doing solar in the US nowadays is using grid-tie and no batteries, or using Tesla batteries which are overpriced and require the cloud for management.

:D Ich bin Deutscher und lebe in Deutschland.

Wish I could help but here's my experience: The dealer where I got my components from, offered an initial conversation for about 50 Euros. Just to find out if my application and his products were a good fit.

I guess that was a filter for the kind of person that just steals your time and never had the intention to buy anything.

Turns out, he made the best recommendations, based upon my parameters.

I paid cash up front. When, after 3 months nothing had been delivered I got nervous. I mailed him about a half dozen times and talked to him on the phone a couple of times. That didn't help much, no concrete delivery time to be had.

Long story short, one day I'm informed that a pallet is gong to be delivered to my house. Lo and behold, it's the battery!
