question

I have only used Bosch, Miele or Siemens. They all come out the same factory it seems, no issues on a multi.

To add, the new wifi variants can be controlled via node red.

I’ve got a Bosch washing machine and a Samsung condenser dryer both draw from the multi registered as load which the battery covers, can’t remember what the load of the washing machine is but it’s high from memory @40 degrees it’s was high 3K or 4K which is significantly higher than the condenser dryer believe it or not

Hi Elimac,inverter technology means that the motor is controlled for more efficiency,it also has a soft start function avoiding heavy spikes/drawings from the inverter....Remember the old fridges,when they started the lights flackerd...So you have got a smoother running operation and longer lasting equipment.I presume the function is quite equal to the major makes...best regards frank

Thanks everybody!

I ended up buying an LG 8kg with Direct Drive. What a difference from the previous one with classing drum! No more surges! My inverters are enjoying the new washing machine :) Only drawback is the heating element is minimum 1900W, I whish it could be lower, but that's not a dramatic either, kind of expected really. Maybe I should have switched washing machine earlier!

@Elimac ,hi there,compressors like motors etc used to have the habit,when they started to draw several times more than their rated wattage.For example,a rated 1kw compressor of a fridge can draw-for a few miliseconds- up to 3kw and perhaps more(to the and of their life).That's why the "soft start circus" was born-to avoid those spikes.You find them often on audio amplifiers to reduce the stress on the transformers...Now with the new area of smart inverter technology the whole running of compressors,pumps etc. is entirely controlled by the electronics taking several aspects in concideration.Therefore a longer lifetime guarantee,usually 10 years can be approached.....

So if you have still got an old fridge in the cellar,running and other high wattage equipment at the same time running towards the max. power your inverter is rated you might see a little flickering at lightbulbs,meaning your inverter is reducing power to save itself from an overload....That's it:to avoid is(like anyone should do)reduce heavy consumption,choosing low wattage household equipment ,choose newer equipment ie. with those new inverter(soft start) technology.Most valid inverters have already a soft start circuit on board to protect the bus parts like condensators and igbt's/sicfets.

@Elimac ,hi there,if you are interested in a secure soft start circuit,which actually works,i can give you the schematics and formula's to "easily" build your own...You need to know though what you're doing.This soft start circuit is made from a handful diods,an op amp several resistors and a few heavy ballast resistore and a couple of relays.I can walk you through this,than the relays have to be choosen wisely!If the relays don't open,the ballast resisters will(!) overheat with rather catastrophic results(if not placed in a bunker)....Delay time is usually 100 miliseconds -sufficient for about 5 full cycles at 50Hz and it is quite allright to run 200% of full load at start up.Inrush currents can be in exess of 50Ah(!) which is not so uncommon.....Frank
