  • The eVault needs to be fully charged before you put it into service I had to get this battery charged for my offgrid customer for the sake of time. I’m temporarily wiring up my personal Solark to charge a Fortress Evault 18.5

    JOHNY !! Thank you so much for the shout out ! Ben has already watched the video 20+ times first time he was in such "shock" it was like the best early christmas present he ever got almost brought him to tears ! He has been on cloud 9 ever since. You might of just made his year ! He cant get over that 12k$ battery pack and that you were strong enough to lift it.. I had to explain to him what a Hoss is and he said I want to be a Hoss like Johnny and did some flexing! for those that didn't see my post in a previous video Ben has downs syndrome and thinks Johny is like superman (He loves solar and batteries)what a heck of a awsome guyJohny is ! Congrats on your incoming child 🙏 if you guys could only see how important this was to him y'all would be tearing up !

      Well just for the record I can not lift that battery. It’s on rollers and I was dragging it. It’s very heavy. 450lbs. Tell Mr ben I appreciate his viewership and that he made my day. God bless you and your brother.

    I moved and took my solark with me and installed a sunny inverter in its place because I wanted to bring the solark with me. I agree their packaging is awesome.

    As a less jackleg way of doing this in future, add a NEMA 14-50 receptacle next to that panel and get or make a 10ft to 15ft 6/4 or 8/4 suicide cord with a NEMA 14-50 plug (you can get them as replacement cords for 50A service RVs new or get them for much cheaper from junkers).

    5 WOW, your gonna have your own install crew, congrats, question why do they not ship them charged , or is that not lawful or is the voltage and chance of problems from high voltage? also fortress or solark should make you a special charger!

    Heyyyyyy, Johnny! Got a quick question. I have a 220V line that was initially made for a hot tub, I put a plug on to run my welder. Could I connect the wires from the plugin to my Sol-Ark 12k and do the same thing you are doing in this video with my battery bank system? I haven't seen any videos of using Wifi to add or check for Sol-Ark updates but, because I've had my Sol-Ark 12k for over 6 months sitting in it's box, I am sure there might be some. Because I don't have any internet service on my off-grid farm, where I am going to be installing it, I want to make sure that it has all current updates before I do. Can you do a video showing how to update the unit using its dongle?

    • @GainSolarPower
      @GainSolarPower  3 года назад

      I’ve done exactly what you are talking about. The easiest way would be to temp install it and push all the updates from a stable WiFi connection and then pack it back up and take it to the off grid farm.
