@anthonyoctober417 I am just toying around and like these things. Anything in particular you want to see? Perhaps I can help.

Hi Jaco. So as ek reg verstaan, jy wil n minimum van 30% he tussen 22:00 en 06:00. Die res van die tyd maak niks saak nie. As dit so is , dan sal jy natuurlik die res van die dag ook niks minders as 30% wil he nie. So maak dan net letterlik al jou timers se SOC 30%. Dan doen jy wat jy gevra het. Jy kan nie nie n timer he nie. Die inverter kan nie nie na die battery kyk vir n tyd nie, so jy kan nie n gedeelte van die dag "delete" nie. Hoop dit maak sin? Groete. Benrie

@@jacosteyn8733 reg gekom?

@@clifflategan1930 kom ons sê die boksie nie NIE getick nie en hys op 50% gestel op die time slot. Eskom is aan. Jy battery sal gebruik word tot jy battery val tot by 50%. Dan skop eskom om jou load te support sodat die battery altyd op 50% bly in die time slot. Nou val Eskom weg, jou battery sal moet krag gee en so gaan jou % val. Kom ons sê hy val tot 40%. Nou kom Eskom weer terug. Jou battery gaan nie gelaai word met eskom nie. Eksom gaan net so hard werk sodat jou battery op 40%. As jy die bokies WEL TICK, in daai geval sal ekskom jou battery van 40% op tel na 50% toe. Hoop ek beantwoord die vraag?

@@benriefourie115 great dankie. Lyk of jy net een woord uitgelaat het. Laat ek confirm. So hy sal in ons voorbeeld bly op 40% wanneer krag aankom( eskom gebruik om daar te bly op 40%), want box nie ge-tick. Indien so, kan ek eintlik al daai boksies NIE tick terwyl ons nie load shedding het nie? Beste besparing.

@@clifflategan1930 net so ja. Met geen loadshedding sien ek nie die rede hoekom eskom batterye moet laai nie. So my boksies is ook almal leeg op die stadium.

@@benriefourie115 Baie dankie vir jou hulp. Waardeer!! Ek probeer hard om nou minder te betaal op eskom krag. Panels, invertor is mos duur investment. So probeer die beste van dit maak. Ek sien wel ek sal plan moet maal met grysers(2). Hulle vat maar baie krag en hulle hardloop glad nie deur my 8kw invertor en 10 son panele stelsel. Dit lyk ook nie vir my of timers op geysers veel verskil gaan maak nie. Ek dink om nou een van die geysers te laat skuif om krag te kry via invertor stelsel. Sal jy dit ook aanbeveel? Ek verstaan ek sal wel dit moet mooi monitor en geyser nie in die aand laat werk nie.

@@clifflategan1930 ek het 1x geyser en hy hardloop van inverter af ja. Ek het genoeg panele om hom te run (5.4kW se panele) Ek het gewoonlik n temp sensor in my geyser gehad. So ek maak hom so warm as wat hy kan gaan as die son skyn, en in die aand idle hy net op 50°C. Dit het baie gehelp! Ja, timers werk ook nie vir my nie. Ek het dit al baie getoets en dit wat jy spaar is nie die moeite werd nie. Kyk na jou son grafiek. As jy sien jou panele werk nie 100% heel dag nie, sit die geyser op die sisteem sodat die panele so hard werk as wat hulle kan.

Yes, but not always. Perfect exhaust with the correct back pressure is better than restricted flow.There is lots of math in that equation. Also, it's normally not on all rev ranges.👍

Hi. Los jou nommer hier dan sal ek jou whatsapp. Ek help graag.

Dankie Benrie, het reggekom. Ek wys nou vir ander mense hoe dit werk...! 😊

@@bedofromkokstad9034 Awsome!

Hi Mr Fourie. Ek wil net noem dat ek glad nie n installer of seller is nie. MAAR, ek like die goed baie. Ek het al familie gehelp met hulle settings en ons kan verbeterings maak. Stuur my dalk jou nommer, dan whatsapp ek jou en ons kan bietjie speel met jou settings.

Hi. Yes.l, it might be one of 2x things. What is your current load? If your genie is supplying 3.5kW but your load is 3.5kW or more, there is nothing left to go to the battery. But setting wise, get out of this screen and go into your Battery settings screen. Make sure Gen is also selected there and that the charge current is not set to 0Amps? Let me know if it works.

@@benriefourie115 Hi Benrie ja the current load is only 243W and it all being supplied to the house from the generator. The battery is being charged (slowly, very rainy day) by the panels, but nothing from the generator sadly

I appreciate it 🙏

Defiantly something wrong with your car. If I drove it super hard, I could not get it under 15km/l. My average was around 17~18 km/l (real numbers)

Hi. So there 2x questions here. 1st, I will play a bit and see, but need some info. Is your geyser running on a timer? On what side if the inverter is the geyser connected? If you have a timer on the geyser, you could use the timer function, like on my video, for the set time the geyser runs, but not select the grid tickmark. Meaning it will use PV and Eskom to supply the load and not use the battery for that time. 2nd question on the battery usage to a certain %. I would say yes, but it wont be easy. You can control you Sunsynk with Homeassistant, but you need to use Nodered running trough the modbus port. That way you can switch anything on or off with smart switchs on any condition ( like battery state of charge) , you can change inverter timers and charging/ discharging. But they is very complicated. I havent done it. When I have the time some day I will look into it for myself. But for now, I dont have an easy answer. Or perhaps if you have a timer on geyser, set your inverter timer for that time to 80%, so it will use the battery down to 80% and then pull Eskom to keep it from not going below 80%. You can ply with "prioritize load" but that would be to permanent and you wil use Eskom.

@@benriefourie115 Dankie vir die reply Bernie. Ek dink ek sal so bietjie speel. Die geyser is op 'n timer, ja. Ek sal dalk jou eerste voorstel gebruik. Die Time zone net verander vir hoe lank die geyser aan is, en die grid merk verweider. Dit sal darm help vir die tye wat die geyser geskeduleer is, maar nie as mens dit op 'n ander tyd wil aansit nie. Ek het gedink daar is dalk 'n manier om die non essentials net van PV en grid te laat run. BV as die son skyn en panele wek genoeg op, kan die geyser net PV gebruik, en indien dit te min is net die res by grid kry.

Is there a reason why the gen is all ticked .

@@robertguest7808 hi, no reason at all for me. It was just like that from the factory.

Standard 3kW element on the geyser. I have only once rund into an overload. My bill went from R1300 /month to R50 😁

@@benriefourie115 wow. That’s amazing. And to confirm it’s on the load side right?

@Jody Anthony Roberts correct. Everything powered through the inverter. I, however, have and switch over to throw the stove and geyser to the utility side should I want to use all the equipment on the stove together ( that's about 13kW and has never happened) Also, if it's on the utility side, I dont have power to the stove and geyser in loadshedding, nullifying the reason for going solar. So, thus far, everything in the house runs 100% through the inverter.

A run through of your system setup would be a great video. What battery, the switch over. But thanks for sharing your info anyway. Who did your wiring for you if you don’t mind sharing?

@@benriefourie115 The only issue people are reporting with running your geyser on the inverter is - the battery life (cycles) drops tremendously - you are therefore shortening the lifespan of your batteries severely.

Hahahaha

It drains below down to the inverter shutdown percentage. It’s usually 10% or 15% by default and is configurable on another screen.

Unfortunately not that I know off. Perhaps put the battery in "manual charge mode"? But I don't like that so much as you SOC isn't 100% accurate sometimes. But I guess its worth a shot?

Dont have a tutorial my friend. Please check out ddt4all facebook page or just Google. You'll find the info💪

Na man. I did nothing that will cause the vales to bend. :-)

It should yes(when no PV is available)👍

8000w is the power the inverter is allowed to take from the battery.

Cant see why not. I wanted to do that actually. If you look in the firmware, the car is set to the small screen and there is an option for you to select the bogger screen. So I think yes. Unfortunately I sold the car before I got my hand on a bigger cluster.

Unfortunately not man. But I loved it!! The person that has it after me got a issue with the EGR valve...but that was on 190 000km! Unfortunately I dont have contact anymore. But you are welcome to ask any questions. Happy to help if I can.

Right after the CAT , you can split the exhaust. Remove that connection and you can literally see into the cat from the bottom of the car. Take a flat screw driver and break the cat out. Simple as that. No special tools needed👍

@@benriefourie115 cool thanks for the reply. Will you be able to put the cat back in afterwards?

@@Ruben-vn2ix nope. This was destroyes the cat completely.

Hi. It depends where the adjustment is. Normally the screens that can adjust swivels on the bottom and than wont work. If it swivels on the top part , it might work. Unfortunately I dont have the car anymore. I installed an Xtrons Android Radio in that car and detached the screen aswell (it could also swivel, but still did not fit) I think this trimplate was made for those flat double dinn radios with no CD player.

Unfortunately no way to tell by not looking at it. Would probably be best to take it to a repair shop or back to the dealer if still under warranty.

Dump valve? Did you turbo your car? If you did that , surely a cone filter installation will be a walk in the park... That also means your intake is not standard.

@@benriefourie115 I haven't done anything to my car yet

@@WordOnTheStreet01 sorry man. I dont have my car anymore to make some vidz. But I can tell you that you cannot install a dump vale on your car. Wel , you can , but it wont do anything unfortunate man.
