I did go online to ask Outback twice, no answer. System Radian 8 kW and Mate3 with 2 each 1.5 kW solar arrays into 2 ea. MX60s. Battery 20 kWh LiFe open loop. The owner wants the lowest energy bill. The rates are; off-peak at 0.04/kWh and on-peak at 0.21/kWh. My choice is battery and solar on-peak 9:00 am to 9:00 pm. However, the homeowner will deplete the battery on cloudy days, AND the Outback will turn off leaving them without power. Is there a way to switch to grid power for this period? I do not want to charge the battery at this time. </div></div>
