That is to much for me. Great job. Took you about 6 hours total? Maby. I have shakey hands and have a hard time with the small screws. Sungold had me do that on my second Inverter and it didn't work after. At least no smoke.

Now that I've watched the video to the point where the inverter is disassembled to the point where the baseboard can be removed, that's a pretty daunting task and I've done component level repair commercial. It's not a comment on the quality of the unit, it's just the nature of the beast - complex multi-function devices are going to be like this. Are the connectors unique in an area, ie it's not possible to accidentally plug something into the wrong position. It's all labelled, and that's good, but having connectors that prevent a cable in an area of the unit being plugged into the wrong one would be nice.

Lots of people don't consider what really happens if their inverter or let's the smoke out. Having spares set aside is a good idea but not as good as having a complete ready to use spare unit even if that unit is a lower rated one where you have to live without non-essential things operating. The average person off the street may have good enough mechanical capabilities, ie can remove screws and replace a board, but they likely have very little electrical/electronics capability beyond spotting soot/burnt and/or exploded components. They can replace that board, turn the unit back on, and immediately that new board is destroyed because another board is the one where the fault starts. A classic example is the cheap low frequency inverters where there is a 'do everything else' control board and a separate FET board. FET's blow up, replace the FET board, turn it back on and they blow up again because the control board is the problem.

Does midnight solar consider the inverter a DIY serviceable equipment?

Thank you, Adam. Interesting exercise. Curious how holding spare parts costs would compare to just having a second unit. You'd likely have to have one of each part which could be costly. Also, if the unit fails, how do you know what part failed?

Great video, thanks for creating it - very helpful for me setting up our system! One question on the assistants - you've set up the programmable relays with multiple drivers (AC load and SOC), are these conditions "and" or "or"? e.g. do both conditions need to be met for the grid to connect or disconnect, or will it do it if either is true? I can see this being a potential issue as I'd like to disconnect the grid when SOC is higher than A "and" load is lower than B on one programmable relay, and the other programmable relay to connect the grid when the SOC is lower than C "or" load is higher than D.

You are "the kid in the candy store" great video. compared to the Victron..well it's a lot more simple than this thing, I prefer a LF inverter, but I do own an EG4 6K as well. My point is, that is a lot of parts and boards...

Wow good job on this one. Slow and steady wins with this type of work.

Adam this is MikeG.After seeing you tear down that HF inverter.Made me so happy I bought my transformer 25 klw inverter.i only had a guess 20 screws to replace only 3 boards ,a touchscreen,and 2 huge capacitors on the AC side ,and about 8-10 screws on DC side capacitors that I didn't change.to update my inverter.If we lived close I would show you my inverter and ease of field servicibility.That I believe you would be amazed how easy it was for me to fix.And I want to say Your truthfulness and your character shines in your videos.Its very refreshing in the time we live in.Take care

Adam, very nice job! Thank you

Struggling to get SA to see my 6000xp. Did it take a while for the search to discover it?

What size was your ac unit?

I have been watching your videos for some time,,awesome job! I have been using Victron since 2018 on several mobile applications including 2 Quattros in split phase. Now we have a house in AZ (with well) that I really want to go all electric. I thought I was going to go 2 10K Quattros but after seeing this AIO...maybe not? Do you happen to have a wiring diagram of the connections in/out of the AIO? Are you using just the 100A AC out to power the house, or do you use the smart breakers for the well/pressure pumps? Thanks

I have to wonder about the performance and load if those old batteries were removed. The shunt data on that would be interesting to me.

Woooooow ....how to download the app on Android

Loved my Allpowers till it failed and they basically told me to get lost.

Lol, I thought about trying this. I figured the BMS wouldn't handle the surge. Opening up more possibilities for the channel 👍

Can you AC couple with this Inverter?

Adam, I have been a big fan and following of your page and Andy's off grid garage. My setup is almost identical located in N.W. WA and originally had the eg4 system but i upgraded to the victron system. Eg4 crapped out so upgraded for the replacement that i may use as a generator boost to the 10k victron like Andy did but his was all victron already. My system has been working flawlessly since going off grid 100% since Feb 2024 on 8.7kw of solar 16 420w REC and 20 renogy 100w. 770kw of battery bank using 2 x eg4 100ah and 2 x Gobel power 285ah. Just ordered a DIY battery case Andy suggested on one of his builds with Eve 314 mb31 because finding out from eve they have discontinued the mb30, so still waiting on That to get preparing for raining season. When it rains i only produce 5-10%. Only problem i recently have and I hope you can help me with is on the Cerbo gx mabe faulty, Not getting any data from the shunt/Battery/Loads. Only data on charge controllers mppt 250/100 and 250/85 to the gx and vrm. Did upgrade to the Beta. Can't find anything out there that anyone is having issues with except putting a cap on power point. Andy did have a little issue but a thing that was with his Pi. That"s what i hate about anything that they compact in a small size a put fets, and components in always seem to fail from heat i would think. Let me know on your input or others on the channel. Keep up on the good work!

I guess the power draw of the cart is at least in part due to the fat tyres having a pretty bad rolling resistance. If the plan to change the battery goes ahead I'd look into a DIY 48V battery. There's a good variety of cell dimensions to optimise the AH vs the bay shape and in turn discharge capacity of the battery to cope with what ever the peak draw of the cart turns out to be. Hopefully the cart is using a PWM motor controller too, not just a stepped resistor array like they used to. Thankfully it wasn't the type that tapped the bank at each battery to supply different voltages to the motor.

Hmmm, church has gaffer tape, pliers and bolts. I'm no sure what sins they are saving people from there, but keep up the good work regardless.

Rather coincidental to see this video come up. I was just talking about the Midnite battery the other day. Not quite enough continuous amperage for what I'm doing with my Precedent setup. I have 48v Bolt Energy lithium for mine.

Its a lot of money for what very little you get!

I want to do that with my rioby riding lawnmower. Great video ❤

I suppose if you throw the battery hard enough it could move anything really.

Thats so cool. I need to try something like this also. First I’ll need a golf kart.

I’d give it the 1, 2 punch of a Vartner 48 golf cart battery and a Genasun boosting charge controller. Scrounge up a 60-cell module and a couple smaller mods and not have to worry about it anymore. I did that conversion a few months back and it’s brilliant.

Parallel two or three...or get that floor mount, you'll have plenty of amps then. Burnouts in the church parking lot!! LOL

Good Job very good video and easy to follow. I just purchased this power station with the extension battery BP1000. I know there are some less expensive ways to go but this has everything I need and it is mostly plug and play. I really like the app . I like you would prefer a well printed in a large enough print owners guide starting with the basics and moving forward. This is really my only objection it was printed so light and so small it was useless to me.Also wish it was a little lighter or had a bar across the top rather than the two handles to make it easier for people who aren't weightlifters to move around. All it is a great machine that is easy to use and will come in handy for camping,outdoor dinner parties to keep things warm ,and for blackouts. I pray that none of us need it for the long term grid being down .Makes me feel pretty secure about power.Thanks Anker.

Why can't all this be done automatically with the Cerbo or using ESS?

Hello sir, I have noticed that you are taking help of google ad campaign to make your video viral. Video promotion is very expensive. Actually, I am a TH-cam Marketing Manager and SEO expert. I have been following your TH-cam channel for a long time. I see you are regularly uploading videos. But without Google Ads promotion you are not getting the expected views. Because your videos are not SEO (Search Engine Optimization). Also don't optimize your video titles. As a result your video is not getting expected views and your channel is not getting subscribers. I want to talk to you about it in detail. Are you interested?

For a fixed home installation connected to my sub-panel which is also connected to my main panel. Should I disconnect the ground relay on my Victron Multiplus. So that there is only one ground-to-neutral connection.

Adam sorry to keep bothering you I've got the 6000xp working nicely I was looking to add an extra string and was under the assumption that if i purchased the eg4's 100 500 mppt charge controller that it could communicate with my eg4's battery however reading the owners Manuel, it states that if already communicating with your battery via the inverter then it could cause interference and that it would be better to leave the charge controller without Coms. And set for voltage. My ignorance allowed me to believe that I'd be looking at my monitor page and be seeing the extra charge controllers pv input etc. Not thinking no dongle nor way to monitor? i guess I would be connecting with no coms. - adjusting to voltage-and observing in the inverters monitor the batteries state of charge ? Do i almost got it right ? Thanks Scott

Lifepo4 getting more cheaper by the time. 50 pax per kilowatt so cool

Adam, do you think that you will do a video on the new NHX 12k unit? I believe it's a Megarevo built unit that is very close to the EG4 18kpv specs. Thanks... love your videos Adam!

Passive balancing is a big thumbs down...

Why inverter back feed AC power? Is there any explanation known please?

I have a Cerbo-S GX and my main goal is to make the relay controls accessible via the VRM oortal and web access (I dont have a Victron screen). Would you expect this to work on the Cerbo-S GX? Thanks

In general, does this flickering cause any harm to aircon or fridge? If yes , I believe we should use time delay and contactor that turns off the appliance for 3 min between the switching

I’m dumb

Oh man thank you thank you you saved me a world of pain, and dessmonitor works a treat!

That's amazing! I could really use a system like this. Such a clean looking install.

Is it hard on inverter relay when it switches between power sources when it is on high load . As far as I know, relay doesn’t handle load and spark as contractors ( that why we use contractors in ATS. Circuit)

Just binging your vids right now hahaha love the energy!

Can I use this portal for other voltronic inverters ? I need alternative for dessmonitore as It doesn’t allow me me change settings from web ( only mobile app)

Does the multiplus use the smart shunt for measuring SOC? or does it have a built in one?
