    More or less that is what I have in mind for my shed to charge battery operated tools and maybe make a solar powered over head led light fixture

      Solar Inverter - SMH-II - 2 missing capacitors
      by Cama
      Hello,
      I need help to find the value of 2 missing capacitors ( C102 and C117) on my Easun SMH-II mainboard (solar hybrid inverter). I circled it in red on the close-up picture. The 2 old capacitors are completely missing, so I have no reference. Does anyone have this board and can tell me the value or make an educated guess based on the location ?


      My model is : EASUN SMH-II 7 KW
      Mother Board : P/N 18947-002401250250
      Maybe the EASUN SMH-II 4.2 KW have the same capacitors


      Thank you...

      Trying to repair a MPI5.5kW solar inverter
      by Francesc V.
      My parent's solar inverter died after 5 years of good service.

      It's a called hybrid inverter:
      - It can go with or without batteries
      - It has 2 MPPT (8 330W panels in 2 strings) -> 5280Wp
      - A 20kWh lithium battery previously used in a Nissan leaf (14S at 4.1V max) -> 57.4V

      Panel is showing error 17 and the battery connection has disappeared. On the other hand, is delivering load, MPPTs are working and it's exporting energy to the GRID. Not that "bad".

      Let's open it......
      I see that 150A fuse is gone and the...

      inverter H tree driver imbalance in an AC inverter
      by eccerr0r
      My cheap crappy 1KW grid tie inverter (GTI) seems to keep blowing IGBTs. When I first got it, it had two failed IGBTs. It used four 60N100's (TO264). I bought 5 from a dubious source (fleabay) and replaced just the two that were dead. The GTI worked for almost two years but recently one of the two that I replaced failed. Since I had three spares, I replaced the dead one. Then a few weeks later it failed again. Weird. Well since I bought dubious China-sourced IGBTs from fleabay it could very well just be a mixture of fakes. I replaced it, but then a day later it failed again! I put in the last...

      Vizio E55-E1 bad backlights or bad inverter?
      by x_orange90_x
      I just got this tv today and it appeared to have no backlight on. After taking off the rear cover and checking again in the dark I can see that MAYBE one quadrant is lit.. But still it's quite dim. I was going to check the LEDs with my tester, and I found LED 1 and LED 2 + pins on the wire from the inverter, but I couldn't identify a ground. Nonetheless I tried using a mounting screw on the inverter board and also the chassis as ground but regardless my tester reads 300 which is what it reads when there is no voltage draw.

      I don't know how exactly to test the inverter itself. Is it...
