This is not the golf cart scenario I mentioned in another thread, but he wants to be able to wheel away his battery into storage. Don't ask me why... I can't figure it out myself. Do you see any issues with this? I guess the question I have is what happens when the battery is connected and he's on grid and he decides to disconnect the battery? I'm guessing nothing, but I could be wrong. Will he need to change the settings back to grid-tie only?</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Jason</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font-family:"helvetica neue",helvetica,arial,sans-serif"><tbody><tr><td rowspan="2"></td><td rowspan="2"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-left:1px solid rgb(237,237,237);color:rgb(85,85,85);font-size:13px;padding-left:10px"><tbody><tr><td colspan="1"><br></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table><b><div style="text-align:center"><br></div></b></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div><br><img width="0" height="0" alt="" style="display: flex;" src="https://mailtrack.io/trace/mail/f9ef9e8db04b1454d2084eedb125a2b6b27db817.png?u=1613865"><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Apr 1, 2022 at 2:29 PM Nick A Lucchese via RE-wrenches <<a href="mailto:re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org" target="_blank">re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Jason, this will work just fine. I\u2019ve not fully embraced a transition to their products for my clients yet but had one recently where the customer insisted on this for their project and I was in the exact scenario while we waited for the battery to arrive. No external bypass required for this reason. However it does not work without a minor setting activation and even then there was a 10-20 second delay before the relay is closed and the utility will pass through. <br>
