It’ll soon be 24 hours since the battery and solar went live here and today’s been a nice sunny day to give it a good test. Already the battery is full for later, the house doesn’t want much power and the panels, whilst not at their 4.050kW peak are already producing a nice 3.61kW which (with nowhere else to go) is gett8ng sent out to the grid. That’s actually frustrating because the facility to be paid for that export hasn’t been set up yet by the delivery network operator. Still, a good start.
@christineburns My setup also has an EDDI energy diverter: after the battery is charged it heats my hot water tank. After that, it sends excess to the grid. But I think I need to add a 2nd battery to soak up more power too. https://www.myenergi.com/product/eddi/

@christineburns I've daydreamed about hooking up the EDDI's output to a string of arm64 SBCs setup for Monero mining. And then piping the waste heat from *them* into my hot water tank. Or just using thermal glue and gluing the SBCs directly to my copper hot water tank. I just need to rig up a sequencer to power the SBCs up and down according to the available excess power.
