I already asked that question. One or the other, but not both at the same time. ETA: When I asked him it was on Reddit, not here.

This was mine in SoCal

Been playing with the pricing a bit to see how I can get my charging and discharging behavior to act like the old balanced setting that used to be available. Here is what I discovered Non-peak time: Old Cost - Savings: Set both the buy and sell price the same - All solar will first go to the...

That was not an option. But, even if I am able to access, eventually it would no longer be an option. So how do we use the app as an alternative?

I am no longer able to access the gateway through my IP address. I get the message to download the pros app. I downloaded the app. How do we use it as a homeowner similarly to how we logged into the gateway through the IP?

I've seen video of someone doing this with Enphase microinverters. They built a DC capacitor bank, connect to turbine to the capacitors, and the capacitor bank to the microinverter. This microinverter was then strung together with the others from the solar ETA to add video link

The last update fixed both issues. And it’s also nice that we can now check diagnostics without having to enter the IP address. Excellent job and thank you.

I still don't understand how grid impedance would prevent the PW from turning on when they are disconnected from the grid during an outage

One thing I noticed is if you have your iPhone display set to large text the app won't fit the screen. The menu and some of the pages are zoomed in and you cannot zoom out. Alos, if you get a failed to connect to gateway error, you cannot leave the Gateway Diagnostics page

Third Storm Watch here in the last week, all for flood. Currently in one right now.

Downtown LA alone averages 14. West LA 20. Most of the areas on the the coastal side of the mountains get more than 12 inches. The mountains well over 40 inches. I’m in eastern LA County in light green area where LA, San Bernardino, and Orange County meet. My area does average 20 inches. The...
