    Will a hybrid inverter and lifepo4 battery work as UPS?

    I live in the Philippines where the power is bad, we have constant outages and when it does work the voltage ranges from 160-255v and the hz ranges from 52-65.

    Hybrid vehicle charging advice

    Father in law picked his new BMW X5 phev. Previously he had a 330e hybrid on loan whilst he waited for the X5. With the 330e he charged the vehicle via an exterior 13A socket and the vehicle battery was 100% charged. The battery on that vehicle was a 2.4KW battery and a 2.4KW charging unit...

    Thoughts on this hybrid configuration

    Hi guys and girls, I've come across this setup and although not exactly standard, can't fault it. What are your thoughts. I'm guessing it's just a hybrid/lollipop config. All cable, including the SWA that runs externally to the garage is 2.5mm t&e. A socket on the ring feeds an adaptable box...

    Optimum setup of 2 strings on Solis RHI hybrid inverter

    Hi, We have a setup of 2 strings in series of Viridian panels, at present these go to the inverter which has dual mppt inputs so the strings are independent. The strings are slightly different, 7 x 250w clearline mono and 7 x 270w clearline poly. I have been looking at the settings in the Solis...

    Solar PV, Hybrid Inverter and Electric Vehicle Charger

    I'm considering buying a domestic 4kW PV with 6kWh of battery storage and a 5kW hybrid inverter from Sungrow. My problem is that wife's electric car has a 7kW Podpoint charger. I assumed that the hybrid inverter would pull power from the grid when the house demand exceeds 5kW, but there's no...

    Hybrid without batteries or grid tied with Auto transfer switch? Will it work?

    I am in the process of designing a system for deployment in Southern Africa and looking for some help/input from fellow solar installers and enthusiasts.

    Hybrid inverter advice please.

    I was hoping a few of the solar veterans would cast a beady eye over a product I'm considering importing. It's what I would call a hybrid inverter. It's basically a large UPS which combines DNO power and standby battery power into a unit with an automatic 10ms switch when power fails. It has a...

    Hybrid circuits

    Morning all, been pondering quite a bit lately about Hybrid circuits,especially 13amp socket circuits, the likes of lolly pop rings etc. I don't want to get into arguments about the pros and cons and why people install them, that's been done to death, whether, I personally agree with this...

    ASHP hybrid systems with Gas

    Does anyone have experience of fitting or performance of these systems? Several manufacturers including Worcester Bosch supply. I am very twitchy as to the efficacy of this solution.
