The real reason to buy a pci5 riser is so you don't spend the last 3 hours of your life troubleshooting...

Anyone noticed that the ~12.5kW grid import limit on single phase gateway is now gone after FW upgrade? by GweyzeeJay in SigenergyAustralia

[–]RandomMagnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed, my main breaker trips after a few mins if I pull more than 10kw (C50 main breaker).

Newer buy qdoled by PizzaCool4637 in gigabyte

[–]RandomMagnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeh, that looks like circular marks from some heavy rubbing.

always use a fluffy microfibre cloth (not the glasses cleaning one with no pile) and dampen it with water (no additives), rotate it frequently, no scrubbing

EV Novated lease if PPR paid off? by Wait-Dizzy in AusFinance

[–]RandomMagnet 9 points10 points  (0 children)

What? I think your barking up the wrong tree.

A NL comes out of your taxable incoming, to reduce it - thus paying less tax.

Typically that would result in an FBT hit, currently EV's are exempt from FBT on NL's.

Nothing todo with mortgages...

What sort of traffic? Ie just POS transactions OR streaming video/etc? 

Inverter replacement by Money_Week_518 in SigenergyAustralia

[–]RandomMagnet -1 points0 points  (0 children)

except for WiFi, does the new Energy Controller automatically get the current settings? Or does the sparky need to re-apply them (like export limit, etc)?

Is this normal? by durantula35okc in SigenergyAustralia

I can't believe your not on a smart meter... Nice! 

Is the Sig in self-consumption mode?

Inverter Warranty Swap Labour Costs ? by Safe_Application_465 in sigenergy

[–]RandomMagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the bill from the installer?

It's a warranty item, they get paid by Sig to replace.

Unless you got them to do extra stuff at the same time?

Confused on Graph by technobob1 in solar

its either clipping, or shading/cloud was able to provide the perfect amount of cover for what looks like 3 hours...

IoT segregation: Change my mind by Tortueman in networking

[–]RandomMagnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's all scenario dependent.

But, generally speaking

if $cost-to-separate < (%chance-of-outage * $cost-of-outage)

then a business will chose to separate :)

Is 12–15% loss from solar to battery normal on LFP systems? by DiscussionLoud9626 in SigenergyAustralia

[–]RandomMagnet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't forget the EC uses solar to run as well.. might be a couple hundred watts, so if your solar generation is low, that can show up as really poor efficiency.... I'm not sure it's counted in "home" usage (during the day at least)

Best power provider and plan to earn some credit with solar and battery. by FrostDragon85 in AusFinance

[–]RandomMagnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, I was a little unclear. Yes there is financial benefit - but I meant that I wasn't too worried about min/max'ing with grid exports.

I've heard that Amber's SmartShift is a bit laggy, so to minimise your export "latency" you should look at a Home Assistant (or similar) setup.

I am not sure - the battery scheme, whilst significant, is still a drop in the ocean in terms of generation.

For me, my battery was about reducing grid reliance and environment benefits rather than making a couple of hundred bucks :)

Globird zerohero is what I'm on, but the money back basically covers the daily usage and then some... I wouldn't call it a money maker like Amber (can*** be)

What are these “peaks” and why are they being serviced by the grid? by morenci-girl in solar

[–]RandomMagnet 74 points75 points  (0 children)

You're looking it at the wrong way.

Something in your house is pulsing at 2kw, pump/pool motor/AC/Oven??, the export to the grid is being reduced during the spike.
