I bought / installed the same Kolpin 48-60 universal plow on my ATV 2011 Arctic Cat 550 TRV (2-Up). Instructions stated 45-60 minutes to assemble the blade. I started at 8:30 AM, had 1.5 hour lunch and completed at 2:30 PM. Yes. That long - with a large cup of coffee and my reading glasses. Retired people with bad knees/hips take longer time. smiles. For my ATV's under belly, I used 4 x U-Bolts and 2x2 hard wood spacers. And I cut off the tips of extra long U-Bolt threads as well. During its install I did add a few more flat washers and greased its swivel points. All installed "as it should" and very happy with its looks, with its ease of angle change and with its safety tilt ability. It's worth buying "on sale". Recommend this adjustable plow...

I’ve never seen Lp used with j channel, actually 1000 iq move, it also gives you room for error when there normally isn’t any

My 2022 F150 with 17,000 got 40oz out put 50oz in. Old stuff was pretty dark but no metalic. Even put my pinky inside and no junk in the bottom. I have heard the LV changes color when it's hot, but it doesn't necessarily mean it's bad. I opted to put in redline MTL as i think it is a better match for my transfer case since it is the old school kind. Not the the new fancy auto ones with clutches.

Note: "unloosen" is tightening....

A poor man's inverter. High frequency, output transformerless inverters like this offer a shorter life expectancy, a poorer surge capacity, and because they lack an output transformer to provide galvanic isolation between its DC boost stage and its AC output, they pose a potential fire risk when powering a home's AC appliances. No thanks. Not in my home.

That’s what I like.. a job site with a lot of ladders

Can you show us what the app looks like. I currently own MPP’s 6548 and was just curious how much better the app is for your 6000

Did you figure out the settings for getting the grid to charge?

I also have a gripe with signature solar I tried to return my 3000 W inverter and pay the difference for a 6,000 XP and they wanted to charge me a restocking fee!!!

I’m familiar with the settings for Growatt inverters and wish they had a setting on this one that corresponds to SBU where the grid only feeds the loads and battery charger when battery SOC or voltage is at the low set point. I have a6000XP that I haven’t installed yet and am sure it will do that. It’s just not clear to me yet how to set it up. I set the load priority to EUI 8pm to 6am because I have free at night power plan with Reliant. That supplies the load and also charges the battery. I’m sure the 6000 XP will do all that but old farts like me don’t learn new new things easily.

hey how many steel belts does the tire have

Can something as heavy as a powered retractable awning be mounted to OSB sheathing? I have sips walls with only two closely spaced studs.

Thanks buddy🤙🏼

Is this semi gloss finnish and did you dilute the paint?

The ingriid power input on the inverter 120,240,480 ??

Run the wire through the conduit BEFORE you strap it to the wall with all the bends and turns, then secure it. Work smart, not hard...

Quick question, I want to install an inverter to ack like a ups. I already have a transfer switch but my question is, if I want to add solar later and battery only during power failure or high electricity rate period. Can the solar offset the load with the grid instead of using the solar + battery or only the grid if solar isn't strong enough? can it be (solar + grid) -> load? can it be done with the 6000xp or I need an hybrid inverter? thank you

And just like that, my dilemma is solved. Many thanks!

My electrician has never done an inverter before so i sent him this video😂 thanks

Im planning on installing one today but it doesnt have the battery percentage, just reads the volts. At 50% battery life would it read 24 volts?

Thank you!!

I have a single 100amp service panel for my small home, a 6000xp and would like to do what you did here but do I need sub panel in between my main panel and the 6000xp?

Great setup, Scott! I wasn't able to find any contact information on your TH-cam channel, so I wanted to hop in your comments here. Signature Solar works hard to get our products in the hands of technically competent individuals that have a passion for DIY projects, such as yourself. I would love to get connected so that we could discuss any future projects you may have, as we may have a good opportunity for you!

I want to take a moment to say THANK YOU. I have been for 2 days trying to figure this battery communication issue and I follow your steps, and mt 2 EG4LL batteries are communicating with the Inverter Now! Again THANK You!

Thanks for the short video explaining how these work. It was helpful.

I had mine set to RS485 and eg4 until I saw your video. Switched to CAN and lux, problem solved. Thanks for the video.

Thank you for showing this, haven't found something about siding in this context in terms of what to use for the edges of the siding (J Channel btw)

Watch "6000xp is not UL9540 certified. YOU CANNOT LEGALLY install in the US along with solar panels" on TH-cam to learn why you might want to reconsider buying this inverter.

At 2:38, you were talking about outlookers, not purlins.

Stupid question. How does this tie into the grid and provide power to all the circuits?

Im watching this 4 months after you posted so things may have changed. I got the 6000xp a few days ago and did not need dongle to get 220v out. One thing I noticed you need to turn on battery breaker on 6000xp before you power your battery so the battery boot can give the pre-charge system to charge the caps in the 6000xp. Look forward to more videos on the setup.

My lazy Susan is wobbling really bad.

Mine has no charge. I'm trying to charge it

I have owned this trailer for a number of years. Solid build quality. I have replaced the wood decking once. When I did I sprayed the frame with black rustoleum paint . I also added grease cups with zerk fittings to keep the bearings alive. It sits outside all the time in rain and snow uncovered. Would buy another one.

You are a moron.

Not level plumb you goon

Scott, I APPRECIATE this video!!! Without a doubt this IS the best method of making a "structural sound" 'ladder' type/outrigger type' of 'extended gable ends'. Simply, each chord of the truss is SIMPLY made 3 1/2" 'vertical height' less than the other trusses...as you state. I've watched several 'ladder' nail-ons, and they aren't anywhere the strength of these. There should be a chapter in the 'how to frame' book of how to do this... You just shown how to do it correctly. And in retaliation for wasting my time reading his arrogant comments, namely 'Billy SmackDownTexasTurkey',,,I'm gonna drop my chords 11 1/2" on my gable ends. I'm going to extend the peak purlins out 4'-5' made from 2x12's just to pis'd off 'BillySmakTxTurdkey'. I'm gonna make my rake angle back to 1 1/2' out at the lower end, so the whole shebang will be angled. Like the old barns that had the hay hook and loft above. And I'll make my walls 'vertical level',,,or plumb...just 'cause I can talk that way and know vertical from hostility. "what did he say?". Thanks for your efforts. Hey World, this is how to make a correct 'ladder', 'outrigger', 'extended gable end', or whatever you wanna call it. Thanks Scott Thomas for your engineering and efforts.

That is absolutely the wrong nozzle for painting cabinets. That is only good for staining a fence or painting stucco.

I am in the same boat as you, I got the 6000xp have it up and running but can't get it to charge, I am only using 120 for the grid in, no solar at this time, yes the manual is worthless unless you are a inverter engineer and understand it, sort of wish I went with the plug and play inverters like BLUETTI AC300 at this point, I too am waiting for a response from Signature Solar, I will be waiting for your next video to see how you got it to work. So far my inverter and EG4 14.3 power wall is just hanging on the wall but can't use it, afraid to get solar and wonder if I can figure out it charges.

Thank you for your posting. I am new to solar and always wanted to supplement some solar to my grid. I just want to do right around 6k solar system with grid-tie and maybe adding a battery for later. Here are my questions: 1. is EG4 6000xp usable as grid tied/hybrid? 2. If I don't use more electricity than what panels produce, can inverter charge battery instead back feeding? 3. I will start without battery first, can EG4 600xp be used as grid tied inverter without battery? Sorry for too basic questions. I am trying learn about solar system and DIY later, but so many info out there. Thank you!

For only $519 for 8 100Ah grade A cells and $100 for a JK Smart BMS with active balance and Bluetooth you can DIY a better battery pack.

Hi Scott - Thanks for posting your whole process here. I've been thinking about an addition off the back of the garage but I'm a "youtube DIYer" who NEEDS to see someone do it first. It has been hard to find a video for it though so thank you for sharing the detail of your addition!

If i ever need a dighouse i wont let u do it

So what?

This is the info I needed. Thanks!

I have that sprayer and the instructions indicate you'll get a finer smoother spray with the other gun with the blue nozzle. And my results with that unit are smooth and much less splatter than what you're showing. Why did you use the wall/area spray gun instead of the fine cabinet gun?

This is BS

Looking good. You're going to be making electric soon. I work in the freight industry. When a pallet is is flat it's more likely to get damaged. Keeping the solar panels upright and support them with 2x4 would be better when shipping them freight.

Thin the paint down...can't rely on the paint to lay down.
