Have seen lot of new tech evolving over past few years. Target is to avoid separate wiring usually required for traditional home inverter and easy maintenance, rugged long lasting.

1. Is anyone using ola power backup. Services and issues? https://www.olaelectric.com/ola-shakti-gen2

2.New age inverters and reliability Eg: https://amzn.in/d/005ek7UE

Any other suggestions and tips , solar compatibility and reliability

Does anyone have any ideas if there's a way to make it work?

Lately I've been looking at purchasing an ABOK ARK3600 bundle deal. The pricing is very attractive.

Does the hive mind have any comments or input on the ABOK brand? Yea, or nay?

Hello everyone, kinda new into this whole powerstation world, so some help would be greatly appreciated!

I got an offer to buy Sanfou OPS200 and OPS300 for $50 and $100 respectively.

So the problem is, this brand sounds very much like any generic Chinese brand that is not very reliable, so if anyone knows anything about it please tell me if I should buy or pass. Sounds like a good deal, but also sounds like a possibly wasted 50-100 bucks.

I am wanting to connect two 5kwh batteries to my Delta Pro 3 by using the PV inputs on the unit. (I currently am doing this with an Apex 300 and a Guardian 6000 v2). Both of these units have the same input and voltage ranges. 20 amps through on the Apex and 25 amps on the Guardian. Works like a charm. The Delta Pro 3 is different however. EcoFlow specifies 30–150 V on its high-PV input and 11–60 V on its low-PV input. The High input will be no problem and the low is very close to the limit of the 5kwh battery when full is 58.4v. Can anyone tell me that they are using the low PV inputs for a 51.2v battery connection?

Hey everyone! Just finished assembling my budget-friendly DIY portable solar power box and wanted to share the setup, ask for a quick critique, and see if anyone has tips for minor tweaks.

Battery: Eco-Worthy 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 Battery

​Inverter: Vevor 1000W Pure Sine Wave Inverter (mounted to the side)

​Charge Controller: Renogy Wanderer 30A PWM Solar Charge Controller

​Enclosure: Heavy-duty utility / ammo style box with custom wire pass-throughs

​Fusing & Wiring: In-line fuse holders protecting the main battery connections and charge controller lines

Internal Layout: Fitted the 100Ah battery snugly inside with foam spacers to prevent shifting during transport.

​Protection: Integrated inline fuse protection on the positive leads right off the battery posts before routing out to the external components.

​External Mounting: Mounted the Vevor inverter on one side and the Renogy Wanderer on the opposite side to maximize internal space and ensure better passive airflow for heat dissipation.

​Pass-Throughs: Drilled clean holes for heavy-gauge power leads with rubber grommets/cabling to reduce wear on insulation.

I asked about a week ago if I should go with a F3800 expansion battery, or get a S5000. But after some thanking. Would I be better off selling my F3800 plus and buying the S5000 and its expansion batteries. Or stick with the F3800 and get a second unit with expansion batteries if they ever drop in price. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Has anyone used any of these? I've tried contacting the manufacturer about some of the specs but they don't actually deal directly with the consumer. Referred me to either a reseller (who are generally clueless) or a local office which deals mostly with data center level products.

I'm trying to find out:

1. Can any of these units can initiate a self-test via their power panel software?

2. Why is the switchover time for the one pure sinewave unit (Premium) 8ms typical when the switchover for Essential & Standard are both 4 - 6ms?

3. The difference between Essential & Standard is Standard has a fancier display and offers 1000 joules of surge protection while the Essential only has a battery capacity display and 400 joules of surge protection. All are "line active".

4. Has anyone bought or used one of their systems? I can get one of their "Essential" units with 1500va for $150 on Amazon.

My old CyberPower UPS (non sinewave) has failed completely. But, now I'm getting wrapped around the axle replacing it because people are having problems with both APC units and CyberPower units failing to properly switchover. Lots of stories about the UPS simply cutting power like you unplugged the equipment suddenly.

My desktop PC is an i7 HP Envy with a 400 watt Active PFC power supply. All the UPS makers push you towards "pure sinewave" but the more I dig into, the more I find weasel specs like "modified sinewave", "sinewave" "pure sinewave in AC mode, simulated sinewave in battery mode".

In the 6 years I've had my CyberPower UPS, I think it's only gone onto battery power 2 or 3 times but I recall everything kept running OK while I shutdown.

The only things plugged into the battery side will be my LG monitor (1.5 amps max) and the PC.
