    A very nice and a clean install. A full diagram of the AC disconnect and solar rapid shutdown as well as a list of all the parts you used will be very useful.
  • @NA-kw2ex
    very useful information-thank you vert much for sharing your experience
  • @kevygreen
    Hey, thanks for the informative video. Im curious with the rapid shutdown if you also need something to cut the power of the inverters to the Smart Home panel. I noticed an EPO port on the top of the panel that I'm thinking could be used for this but there isn't anything in the documents about it. Did you set something up to cut the inverter power like the solar panels?
  • @MrRichardyc
    the install guide listed 1awg wires for the 2 hots and neutral, 4awg for ground, it's ok to use 4awg?
  • @greeenz
    I got one of these pro ultra's for an off grid set up. I didnt get the smart panel. I am wondering if can I run the wires from my panels directly to the eco flow ultra. I am thinking about having (7) 250w panels. what safty percausions should i take connecting my solor array to the eco flow unit?
  • @adamcian
    I'm about to buy/install the same gear and I was wondering when you moved the circuits over to the SHP2, why did you bring the white neutral wires as well? I figured since you're already bringing the neutral over from the main panel via the big 4AWG wire, that all you'd need to do was wire-nut the hots from inside the old panel and bring over the black to the breaker in the new panel. Would that not also work and save some wiring? Also, would love to see a diagram of the shutoff wires, I mostly understand from your video, but would be awesome if you had a diagram (not sure if you do). Thanks!

    Hey there, thanks for very informative video, very helpful. Does ECOFLOW Panel 2 accept slim breakers which allows to connect two lines? It seems that you’ve been using one of these (timestamp 3:30 in this clip). 12 breakers only might not be enough these days. Can you clarify please?
  • I have an inquiry Can the solar system provide power to the house to offset utility demand and charge the battery? Thanks
  • @tlteal
    Thank you very much for posting all of this information --- very informative. Have you replaced the Ecoflow Smart Home Panel 1 with the Smart Home Panel 2 and if so, how difficult was it?
  • @calimolotov2000
    Who is the best candidate for this type of smaller system? Seems simple. I am currently trying to decide what type of DIY system to purchase with $15k budget. Thank you for the great channel really appreciate your videos.
  • @kevinochoa6676
    Very useful video. It helped me a lot. Just Two question. Is AP-Smart RSD compatible with EcoFlow Deltra Pro Ultra inverter? Is the AC Disconnect connected between Utility Meter and Service disconnect? - I mean Service disconnect -> AC Disconnect -> Utility Meter
  • @yeslawrence
    Why is an AC disconnect even required. I get the RSD requirement for the PV, but this system is off grid, so I wouldn’t think it needs an AC disconnect… is it a requirement of the SHP2?
  • @cgutowski471
    Question: you drilled into existing panel and didn’t use an existing knockout. Is that acceptable to make a new hole over the existing knockouts?
  • @OKTown
    looking to do this - only with 100% off grid and zero grid option.
  • @bdelight5422
    Question. Are you installing it as a grid tied system? Thank you
  • @JustinKais
    Was hoping you would show more of the breaker wiring instead of the "jack rabbit on a date" video. disappointed
