Hi all
I'm wondering if anyone knows if temp sensors are common within the following
items
Tristars
Xantex/ Schneider
Outback

HI All,
I believe there was a change in testing of Fridges, and I've been told that
many were listed lower than actual kwh/yr
Which may account for those really hi efficiency models not being around.

If the hydro is only 2 amps, I would argue that you don't diversion at all.

your question, if you plug in a standard AC 120v light bulb and it

All good suggestions, but I would add oil pressure to that list.

Hi Orion.
Go into locked menu
systems menu

in the stacking menu is where you set it all up
And I take it you are not using a balancing transformer, curious why not?
Can't tell you anything about the AGS, but interested to know what the problem
is.

Hi All,
I seem to remember that you can connect the XW inverters with 120v and they
will battery charge.
Anybody know for sure?

Where does it tell me in the manual I can/how to do this?
And will this allow full power or 1/2 power?
