Solis Hybrid - charge battery using Night rate

Apologies if this has already been asked but what would the maximum charge be for a battery at night from a solis. I've been assuming that the batteries can charge at 16amps but I saw on another thread people taking about not having enough time to fully charge. I'm getting two 4KwH batteries, I'd assumed I could fully charge in roughly 2.5 hours at night.

A WeCo 4K4 Pro. Not sure how to interpret the figures in this table.

Because I've two batteries, would is would that allow for better charging times than one big battery?

So a potential capacity to change at Getting the SOLIS RHI-6k-48ES-5G which has a stated Charge/discharge of 100A, but at 70 I would be limited to 3.6Kwh as you mentioned. I was reading through the batter documentations are there seemed to be a reference to once it gets to 90% the charge current drops to 10A, so 1Kwh. OK so the long and short, I'm still looking at around 2.5 hours to fill both batteries, so fine. Also sounds like there is an advantage to having two batteries over a single larger one.

I'd hard for me to imagine people running into problems having enough time to charge batteries at night, is this really an issue?

Hi Just following on from this I attempted to set night charge using Jonsdoc manual this at the weekend but I don't seem to have the option of Self use under Storage Energy Set Function

I have sent an email to solis support to have my inverter firmware updated as this maybe my issue its currently Model no F8 Software version 280016 its a

Can anyone shed light on this?

Solis Inverter 7Kwh panels with 2 x 5kwh Puredrive batteries - I have set up to charge batteries at night rate, however when showing 100% charged only approx 5kwh register on the phone app even though I have 2 x 5Kwh batteries.

1. Can both batteries be charged off the grid during the night to provide full power in both batteries? (maybe leaving small space for PV charge in summer time hours)
2. Can both batteries discharge as required from 8am - 11pm during the day to maximise gain?
3. Can the solis inverter need to be set up to kick in if there is a power cut - system surrently not set up for this even if charge in batteries. Installer says / would not advise on using the PV system as a backup in times of ESB outages?

Any comment advice appreciated - only just have the system installed so a novice to this area.

I had the same issue, after monitoring for a couple days I was confident on.y 5kws of capacity was being used. Turns out there was an issue with one of the batteries being stuck in a firmware upgrade loop. Had to get onto the installer who got onto the manufacturer to do a remote reset.

The Solis app updates every five minutes so it's useless at showing what's happening right this moment. You need the Shelly's you mentioned on the other thread for that.

The over time stats for Solis will be collected continuously, in theory, but only transmitted over a fixed period.

You should not set the discharge time, only charge time. Did the installer not set this up for you? Setting the discharge time is like setting forced discharge. unset that.

It's right there in point 1. It's important to read the full guide not just subsections if you're messing about with any of these settings. It's basically a mode that allows you to save your battery for when you're paying the highest rate and then feed the battery into the house, any excess will be exported so you would need to vary the discharge current to minimize export. For most people you should just set the charging time.

That seems huge, could that be right?

That seems consistent

i had assumed inverter load was in the house stat but maybe not. That's not so bad so.
