[QUOTE="Vaal, post: 1146891, member: 24036"] May I ask, why you want to dump energy? Your panels only produce energy if you use it. My base load is about 400W/hr and when my battery is full at about 10h00, my pv production falls to 400w even if I have a 5.35kw array. But I can clearly see on the pv production when I've been welding or mowing the lawn. But now you get the current rainy weather we are having and it took my panels till 14h00 to cover the base load and charge the battery. I used 2kw from the grid to heat my geyser. Normally I use about 1.5kw to keep my battery above 40% soc every night. [/QUOTE]
