Hi all,
I've searched the forum for an answer, but it seems there are some conflicting opinions on whether or not it is ok to run a single Pylontech UP5000 battery with the MultiPlus II 48/3000/35-32 230V GX as a grid-down backup system with no solar panels, just charging from the grid.
I did see that on the Pylontech compatibility page it says that for this inverter, two Pylontech modules should be used, but it would be great if I could stick with this unit and I also don't really have the budget for two seperate batteries, so I'm hoping I could get by with this setup.
If I can get by on this setup, would I void any warranty from Pylontech or Victron?
If you do have any other suggestions, my requirements are 1kWh (3 x desktop PC's, a fridge and some lightbulbs) for 4 hours each time, 3 times a day, with 4 hours in between of active grid.
I was looking at the MultiPlus 48/2000/25 as an alternative but would I need to purchase a Cerbo GX with that? I'm not particularly thrilled by this option due to the charge rate and overall increase in price for the setup, should I also require a Cerbo GX.
Thanks in advance for any responses.
