pixel8r = pixelator.

I'm into computers, linux, programming, graphics, multimedia you name it. I thought up pixel8 years ago but found that was taken on a few other IT forums so I added the 'r' to make pixel8r.

No other significance other than the fact that pixels are the dots that computer screens are made up of - and it sounded like a cool screen name at the time. Now I use it everywhere... :)

This thread is way too good to just be in the Stag section...

My name's Rhett, like from Gone with The Wind that old movie.

And I used to, during high school, like a type of music called "straight-edge hardcore." Sort of punk music where everyone doesnt drink, eat meat or fight etc... except me coz i like those things too much (except the fighting bit).

Everyone used to draw big Xes on their hands and go to concerts, and if you were really cool you'd put Xes in front and at the end of your name.

Hence xRHETTx.

Man I was so not cool back then.

Also its my email addy at hotmail.

mine is a coombination of my nickname at work cos i am a bit of a fact keeper and a dictionary hence the "oxford" bit and the numbers are my fave 2 numbers jammed together. 13 for when i left home, and 27 when i had my first of five heart attacks and cheated death.

    • I might just check it out.. A Q among all those skylines.. lol
    • Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc.   I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery  Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
    • The price is really great for that kind of capacity. I thought similar setups cost way more. How's your efficiency been with the DC-coupling? I've heard sometimes there can be a bit of a performance loss.
    • Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years.  The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38   I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.    
    • In Vic it would be a defect regardless of whether or not you cut a hole in the sheetmetal for the return pipe. The rules in Vic are shitful, and are generally interpreted as you can "make 2 mods to the intake system". Putting an FFP and an FMI onto it will almost certainly be seen as some huge number of intake mods. You really need to speak to an engineer before doing this stuff in VIC.
