Sure it might be able to start your AC unit when its brand new but just like the EG4 6500X is failing left and right only after a years worth of use, I'll bet this unit will start failing as well. High frequency, transformerless inverters like these are not designed to power high inductance loads like AC units long term
Here he is! He's here!
Installing a soft start on the A/C unit will fix the issue. th-cam.com/video/I0XUbumE1oQ/w-d-xo.html
As someone who has used both the 6500 ex and the 6000 Xp I can say the 6000 is rock solid compared to that POS 6500. I cannot believe the same company sold that product and maybe they will have fooled me twice but it is looking good so far and it has a 5 year warranty.
That’s why sol-ark is and will remain king.
EG switched suppliers. Everything is coming from Luxpower now. And they are one of the best in the business. The 6500x came from Sungold.
_"There's a moose loose in the hoose, eh!"_
Good info. I was hoping it was a bigger central ac than 2 ton but tests like these are what people want to see. I think anyway!
Great video. Yeah the wattage per leg thing on the display is actually kinda nice in some ways. But I would prefer to have a total wattage on there also.
If you update the firmware the menu won’t constantly scroll through all the numbers.
That guy that preaches about low frequency inverters is on every solar page. It’s actually about 5 different accounts that say the same lines every time. Seems like an AI thing.
Yea I don't mind the power per leg now, I just wasn't sure what was going on at first. I do need to do a firmware update for sure I was having some laptop trouble so it's on my list. I agree about the Ai thing, I've asked follow up questions and never get a response from him. Big low frequency must have some spam bots out there 😂
Thank you for filming this! Look forward to the larger solar panel update. I bet this can run your whole house with more batteries
Thanks for the update! The AC load is much lower so you dont need a soft start.
impressive demonstration
"Hoose"
Definitely a Canadian! Or maybe just a Minnesotan.
@@kingcrimson234 Got me
YOU CAN , run everything in a high frequency inverter, just need enough juice or a soft start. Both are better.
Did you notice the update they did that added the individual leg wattage, all you have to do is scroll down on the home screen, and you'll see what each leg is putting out.
I am gonna place a 4 ton with soft start,2 hybrid eg4 12k units, and 2 fridges on my 6000xp backed up with grid power and a generator line for outages, I will be pushing it in summer but those units have solar panels on them separately as well and the fridges are one old one new but maintained. I will let you know how it does. Also the 12k is on my wishlist as well to run the entire house with a 15kw array on the roof.
@@d.pollard5962 Sounds great!
Great video, any idea for how long it could run on battery power? I am thinking about buying the same setup for backup.
Around 10 hours if it ran continuously, with no solar coming in
@@SmitHVAC. Thanks
I’d like to know more about the thermostat that looks to be permanently mounted into your ductwork.
That's just a hvac pocket thermometer stuck through a rubber access plug in the ductwork
@@SmitHVAC. Thanks. Do you leave it in the ductwork all the time?
@@DaveDugdaleColorado No, but you could if you wanted to!
From what I know yes the output shows the individual legs
Hi, great video, is it possibly for you to say what size flex conduit you used at the bottom of the inverter to the wire way ?
It's 3/4"
How many solar panels and batteries are you using with your setup? Thanks!
@@txflyerken173 2.5kw worth of panels, 1 battery. Will be adding more solar before winter
Got a question, was the amperage in-Rush of 47 amps more on par with the startup current? And did would it be capable of also running the air handler? I always thought it would be too much for a single 6000xp Great to know that it will run the outdoor unit though 👍
@@JbVest Depends on your air handler, I have a gas furnace so it would be no problem for me. Somebody with 15kw of strips would be too much
@@SmitHVAC. True say emergency heat wasn't ever used with the fan itself be able to run it I've just noticed quite a large wire gauge running into mine. I haven't clamped it yet to see what it pulls on startup or running. I'll have to do that. We never use the emergency heat though. It's an older unit I don't think it switches on to get heat quick and then off once the heat pump goes or whatever they have going nowadays. If that's even a thing lol
@@JbVest if you didn't run the emergency heat then yes it would be more that enough to run the heat pump and the air handler
@@SmitHVAC. Awesome that would be great. I'll probably need a second unit because I'm running a water heater and a bunch of lights and TV and computer off of one so far and it's just about maxing it out It's been running that way for a year straight with no issues whatsoever even overloading it and switching to the grid testing this thing hard I guess 🤷♂️ It do seem to be quite the capable little device 👍
I would like to see how this thing works for a critical load panel with grid ac in to charge. Does it work like a UPS? Grid dies and it automatically switches the critical load panel to battery? Then how do you control if it’s charging, on battery, or bypass.
I'm looking into a generator panel with transfer switch right now but Im planning on keeping it offgrid for the first little while. It will definitely be grid tied eventually.
and you did it without a soft start
Hi what solar panels you using and how many?
Have a bosch ids 2.0 inverter central ac at 3 tons ...im wondering if this can handle it too
I think it would for sure
I have a mini=split that looks exactly like yours. Mine is a China counterfeit. Branded recreate. Does yours have the MC4 connectors for DC assist?
Yes it does
How do you connect your solar power to the ac unit compressor?
Ac output of the 6000xp to the AC input of the AC
what size solar array are you using?
Just a little a little 1300w array right now, upgrade is on the way
Low frequency inverter guys are just mad they spent so much money
WATTAGE IS BOTH LEGS!!!! EACH LEG DRAWS DIFF AMOUNT FOR 220V! BRUH!
Relax
