We take a look at how it looks when an ATS switches and how the MPI hybrid from MPP solar does its switching
-- More information below! --
3 questions need answer.
1. How long time does it take for an ATS to switch
2. How does it look when MPI hybrid from MPP solar switch?
3. Does the MPI hybrid sync with grid for proper switching?
Answers:
1. Roughly 10ms
2. It looks good!
3. Yes it does and rather fast too!
The MPI hybrid version will be back in store September 25th 2017 regarding to MPP solar. I will add up links when that is true.
ATS or automatic transfer switch is perfect for your solar system. It makes it possible to switch between different sources.

If you find a source where the 18650 cells are cheap... Then its most likely to be fake. Especially if they aren't from genuine vendors.
In this video we will conclude the test and I show you what the result was.
Not surprisingly most cells did fail except for the more expensive one. But also what was interesting was that many of the ordered cells didn't even show up...
So head over to: http://diytechandrepairs.nu/fake-scam-18650-batteries/ for more information and all the grafs from the tests!
Dont forget to subscribe, like and comment. That will help me alot

My inverter stopped working one day. It just wouldn't start with the battery hooked up.
-- More information below! --
It was a sad day. Whole house was black but yeah...
I took it apart and could identify that the main DC/DC board for the battery had many IGBT broken. I could also verify that everything else did work just fine. Solar, grid and all other worked.
I contacted MPP support. After 2 days I called them and not untill then did they respond. After another 4-5 days i got back that I need to replace 3 boards to solve the issue...
Unfortunately it was a saad day since the warranty was no longer there due to over 1 year old.....
It did cost me quite some bucks so I have to spend a bit less on upcoming solar things but had to get it sorted!
Atleast its time to focus on the battery now that still arent done :D

Some tips and trix for spot welding your 18650 cells
-- More information below! --
In this rather long video I go through some basics I have learned while doing quite some spot welds during my days. I have most likely forgotten some and feel free to comment and add them down below!
Spot welding doesnt have to be tricky but its always good if you know what you are doing.
Common mistakes is lack of pressure or to hard pressure. It can also be way off when it comes to enough time/pulses or using a way to week machine.
Dont forget to check out my other spot welding videos!
