[QUOTE="Ucatchmydrift, post: 538344, member: 35106"] Thank you, yes, ive been watching a few videos on youtube about them now, i see they have a clamp meter style device to detect whats going into the grid and then divert that energy to the water tank etc. So, yes unfortunately no good for me 😢. Best option for me would be using a raspberry pi or the like to measure the voltage of my battery bank, and when its at say 3.4v per cell, and day time, to then switch the immersion heater on for 15 mins, then off, then repeat if above conditions met still. Definately a good next project to think about to use up that last bit of spare energy on sunny summer days! Hmmm 🤔🤔🤔 [/QUOTE]
