Hi Coulomb, All good Installed 72.70b with thanks.No issues ..still prayed! Setting 38 now available for N earth. Not sure how setting 32 works ..? I set 32 to 10mins? Is the Post by you 24th Feb2017ad latest and easiest to understand on absorption/ BC process,setting etc ? Thanks for info on o/heat...

Hi Coulomb, Thanks so much for your swift reply!! I had to get back to other more menial tasks , apologies for my delay in reply. So just confirming 72.70 with no suffix to get my desired settings? The link search just 72.70? Congrats. on getting the blown PIP up ..at last!! I wish I had known about...

Hi Guys, Thanks so much for the new 72.4 firmware for Pb from old 52.3. Instructions work fine --I was a bit stressed.Had to make serial cable ..but thanks to paukvk was to get the pin outs for D9 and Mod Plug because I don't think I received cable with my Inverters. Anyway "Install success" with tr...

Hi Coulomb, Great to have schematics! I have just done the cap mods.Replaced MFR PART#EKZN800ELL182MM40S 1800UF 80VDC 105C UCC 10,000 HR ELECT.CAPACITOR the decided best option on the PIP4048. Had some old blank pcbs I could use.Paralleled caps to get value .They all came in when measured above 3300...

I wonder how long we will wait?
Thanks Ian.

Quick answer on Nichicon is no stock ..but can make volumes. We are investigating these capacitors that this was not an O/volt issue but an ESR,temperature,(yes aging too) as they are mounted right next to heatsink. It was as load ramped up to 82A from batteries inverting to 240VAC 4KW load that cap...

Hi Weber,Thanks again for that.. Will advise on Nichicon caps either way-
Will get to parallel mode yet.

Hi Weber , Thanks for that and first message ...Yep will do .Plan to do all that.Concur on mosphets and overall view. We will need about 32 capacitors for all units.We were thinking about Nichicon for caps but have to check specs & bulk order? You guys using earth straps on wrists? Thanks again..no ...
