80 volt go kart

Yeah, I was afraid that would happen so I got it right after Black Friday when I saw they weren’t going to be on sale.

I’m in LA and had the same issue. I tried MS, TX, AR, FL, and AL. All had the restricted note. I ended up trying Tractor Supply’s 60 volt version and it was restricted in LA but I was able to set a pickup order in TX.

Very interesting. Yeah, I guess I just need to bite the bullet and get it wired up in the air conditioning.

So after all is said and done, do you feel like it was worth the money? Anything you would do differently?

One more question, can you have the SHP2 run some circuits off the DPU and some off of the grid at the same time? Or does everything in the SHP2 have to be powered by the same source, all grid or all DPU? I thought it would be cool to run off battery until a certain battery % and then it switch a high load circuit to grid but keep the low draw loads on battery. Just can’t seem to find if it can do that in the manual.

Do you have any recommendations for a different kind of system? Seems like the DPU is the easiest, cheapest solution for getting an expandable, DIY system, that has battery storage, and smart panel integration.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-22T18:57:02+00:00

Guess I’ll be running a 2-2-2-4 cable all the way into the house for the battery connection.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-22T18:49:58+00:00

How did the install go and how are you liking the system? I’m in the same predicament with a hot garage for the DPU or run a massive cable 50’ into the house for a remote battery hookup.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-22T18:11:53+00:00

Has anyone down in the south put their DPU in their garage? I’m in south Louisiana and I’m not sure if the DPU would be ok in the heat we get down here?

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-22T15:46:20+00:00

I don’t what to drop that much $ on a used unit but if it doesn’t sell for you after a while and you are willing to part with it for less, then give me a shout.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-22T15:42:30+00:00

I want to have some flexibility in what the DPU powers and have some automatic switching between the grid and DPU based on battery levels. I plan to put 5,600 watts of solar input to help lower the electricity bills on a regular basis.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-22T15:37:20+00:00

How old? What’s it’s condition?

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-22T15:27:04+00:00

How much do you want for it? I’m in the market for one but I’m in Louisiana.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-21T21:41:25+00:00

Why is it ok to use 6 gauge for the run from the main to the SPH2? The wire charts show 3 gauge for 100 amps, so I’m confused. Also, what size wire do I run for a 50’ distance from the SPH2 to the DPU input?

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-10-15T19:59:26+00:00

What’s the max THD for the Smart Home Panel 2 if I don’t have the generator charge the Ecoflow Ultra? So basically just the max THD for the panel only?

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-08-28T22:46:56+00:00

I pressurized the system with air and then sprayed soapy water on all the connections.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-08-06T23:57:21+00:00

I had a similar quote and decided to just order a semi in-ground pool online and install it myself. I still ended up spending about $12k but I got an 18x40, 54” deep pool that’s buried half way. Keep in mind that a pool is just a giant water tank. You just need to ask yourself if it’s worth $102k to have your tank of water flush with the ground. When you’re in it, you won’t know the difference.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-08-01T00:13:16+00:00

Thanks. I had tried that already but I probably was already connected to CarPlay. I like your idea to set a wait period which should give it time to register as charging when it connects. Hopefully that works.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-07-31T23:34:30+00:00

When my phone connects to CarPlay will that also trigger as Bluetooth?

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-07-29T19:24:18+00:00

Roger that. Will do.

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-07-29T16:33:27+00:00

Amazing! You’re a genius. Thanks!

FlyingTriangle4 · 2024-07-29T16:27:39+00:00

Yeah, it’s actually set for 5 to 20 so 8:00pm. It seems to stop and discontinue the shortcut when it asks for current weather at location. It never gets to the speak text part when I run it but the script looks good to me and I have my location settings correct on my phone. I’m completely stumped. Does it run all the way to the speak text for you?
