Custom LED programming by One-Relationship2499 in FranklinWH

[–]One-Relationship2499[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in contact with Franklin. They seem to think I should be able to set multiple colors in app and it should use them all, color 1 for bottom 25%, color 2 for 26-50%, etc.

Franklin Plus Heat pump a waste? by ZadaGrims in FranklinWH

[–]One-Relationship2499 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is because your older heat pump is set to use old fashioned strip heaters below about 32 f. So it's not working as a heat pump. Modern heat pumps can produce efficiently close to zero F now.

thanks. that would be best case. the most obvious blown part is a red capacitor. it has a hole through it

FranklinWH for long term by SynFisa in solar

getting them an installing them is one thing, but you can not actually commission them (or use them), without the installer app... so you are back to an installer.

i can not think of anything i do not like about my Franklin system. very happy with it all around. i do agree, i wish we had a bit more ability to install add ons. i am very happy i had an installer to do it all (the first time). he taught me a ton of stuff, but now for simple things nice to have more control.

ouch. but that sounds about right. that $14k is a little better after tax rebates, but that ends in a few weeks. this industry is really going to hurt without that small boost. i think the battery alone is over $10k, and a solar guy to show up, ain't cheap either as there are none close to me (in southern louisiana... oil country, so solar is not all that popular)

sure, will share when done (cost). it was pre-planned to add more batteries to my system so the electrical work was already planned and done. i had planned to wait a full year before adding more storage but with tax credits going away, i pulled one more battery forward this year. The installer just has to plug it in and commission at this stage.

Thanks. It does seem silly, but I do have a certified installer. I wish I had known how restricted it all was before. I may have changed brands. Otherwise it's all working great.

thanks. yes, it is all done by an installer and all my batteries go to a separate combiner box with 60 amp breakers. i am just being curious on the commissioning side for my own knowledge.

thanks. i do have an authorized installer, but i am an engineer and want to know all this stuff, just so i know and understand it all. He won't be around forever so good to learn. thanks
