Thoughts on Efigy?

Thoughts on Efigy?

I need to do some cheap load-shifting and have concluded the most cost-effective means is through electronic control systems.

My thought is to use a single $125 Efigy kit to gain a portable display and CT for my main service panel. Then I can use a SmartThings hub to control a couple 120V wifi-enabled circuits for variable loads (freezer, heater, dedicated-AC, secondary refridgerator, electric water heater, dishwaher, clothes dryer, washing machine...).

Does anyone have a similar setup to control their solar output?

GAEA Research demonstrates their new energy technology called RSET. It sets the benchmark in high density, clean energy generation. Chief Scientist, Nigel C. Cheese, states the device collects Background Stellar Radiation via a RPP (Radiant Power Panel) offering compatibility to traditional devices.

Aurora Inverter giving E050 error randomly

Aurora Inverter giving E050 error randomly The message requires a reset to get the inverter working again, but it's random - may happen a couple times a day, may skip a day or two. I have checked every connection, and even inside the inverter where the DC gets connected (2 arrays running). I tried turning off each array independently, but it continued for both lines at the same frequency. The only possible point of spark generation would be the connector box on the roof, which has wirenuts from the arrays themselves to the cable to the inverter. They are tight, but I went ahead and wrapped them with silicon tape (didn't help). Could the inverter itself have a problem? It is an Aurora PVI-3.0-OUTD-US and I can't find anything else in their manual. submitted by /u/Oliver_Dibble [visit reddit] [comments] https://ift.tt/2IrhYav
