That's interesting seeing the battery being used while solar charging it to see the amount of power output vs input.

[@EricLikness]

Nice to hear you're able to divide functions between the studio vs. the battery-lab setup with the transfer panel install. Progress! 👍

[@TommyCallaway]

Thanks Eric. Always appreciate your comments!

[@adriftatlas]

Thanks for following up on our comments!

[@franksilva9355]

Great video review, thank you! Can you help identify best solar panels to use with this unit besides the portable ones due to the limited 60V solar input? On some reviews I’ve seen they using the F3800 unit with 3 panels in parallel that are LG 365W each. 47.7VOC, 9.39Imp total of 28.17 amps potential using two 3 panel strings to connect of the F3800. Any thoughts if these will work and your panel recommendations?

[@adietrich7624]

Lets say you are inputting 1200 watts from PV panels into each of the solar charging inputs and the F3800 and Extension battery reach 100 % charged, is there a concern for damage to the PV panels?

[@juniorgarcia5344]

yes i have question, can you make a video bout how loud this units get?

[@NicholasGray]

Can you share which transfer switch you had installed?

[@davidwatchesyoutube247]

Question -- RV is 30Amp plug… where does it go? Or do I need an adapter?

[@realScottThomas]

You should test 2400 W of panels.
I got two bundles of F3800 with two 400 W panels each.
I'm brand new to this solar stuff but this stuff seemed too good to pass up. Especially since i snagged the 45% discount for both of them lol.
My plan is to eventually get to 4800 W panel setup with my two F3800.
Planning on using that 30% solar tax credit to offset some of the cost lol.

[@TommyCallaway]

I have 8kw of solar on my roof that I'm considering tapping into for some bigger tests... problem is it's all wired for like 350v and I don't plan on changing it... I need a bigger back yard lol

[@ddstinger8480]

I'm a solar system newbie too. I got that same bundle, F3800 with 2 400w panels and 45% discount. I also got the expansion battery as an add-on and probably add a transfer switch or the home power panel if all goes well.

[@SuperMario127.]

I like how you can connect up to 6 expansion batteries to have 700% battery.

[@robertdeangelis3304]

These battery generators pay for themselves with the money you're saving by being off the grid. Looks like an investment that pays for itself. A win win 🏆.

[@nerkymusselman8843]

warranty?

[@AgentOffice]

Split phase that's why

[@GordLamb]

Holy *crap* ... inability to run the inverter at 240V while feeding 120V for charging is an absolute dealbreaker. What the hell, Anker? :(

[@G3kRay]

It doesent make sense that they would allow that

[@GordLamb]

@@G3kRay huh? It would be an *incredibly* useful feature. In my case a dealbreaker. I do not have a 240V split phase gas generator.. only single phase 120V. If I can't charge it from 120V while using it to power 240V loads, it's of no use to me. Many of us are in this situation. It's a shortsighted limitation.

[@G3kRay]

That’s so cobbled together the way you want it shouldn’t work.

[@GordLamb]

3kRay are you just trolling people or something?

[@Brew2point0]

I wonder if Anker's upcoming Smart Home Power Kit instead of transfer switch will solve this issue.
