Really phoned that one in. You should just offer this in kit form, as it is made entirely from off--the-shelf components. I especially liked when the ac breakers moved when switching on. I guess that din rail could use a few more screws.
The line is constantly supplying people and there not storing it in there batteries unless there is an emergency, so you could only add more batteries. You take the blue pill the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember all im offering is the truth. You need more batteries.
"Please make sure that the 2 solar arrays have the same operating voltage and not partially shaded. If the operating voltage is mismatched OR partially shaded, this can cause current backflow and may damage the solar arrays". - So, I understand that the two legs are connecting two arrays in parallel, so the panels must be the same type and amount (e.g. 3x 450Watt panels on each leg). HOWEVER, how do you control shading or different power totals if you have the 2 separate legs facing slightly different directions (e.g. South and East). The total power will vary throughout the day. Or if something blocks or shades a panel at a particular point. I know most modern panels have pass through diodes to prevent many problems. So, I am slightly confused on the "Disclaimer" on damaging solar arrays because one panel gets blocked...
Hi, wtytke. When the panels get blocked, it actually will affect the power and voltage of the panel. Please try to ensure that it is not blocked so that it does not damage the solar arrays.
@@RenogySolar What happens when a cloud blocks part of a panel array or something interferes (a bird lands on one of the panels) - Panels get blocked all the time or a cell goes bad, etc... From your own website on your 450W panels (which I just purchased!) "The built-in bypass diodes protect the solar cells from overheating, allowing the solar panel to perform during accidental shading by bypassing the underperforming cells." Is there something I am missing here?
I plugged in the 8 panels that shipped with the kit to one solar array and there was loud popping and smoke coming out of the breaker switch. Now my battery lights are solid red and not working. What do you think happened? can it be fixed?
This is almost exactly what I'm looking for, its just a shame the breakers wobble when they are turned on/off. It doesn't give me much confidence in build quality.
Hi, annagilda1. The circuit breaker itself is installed on the slide rail and is detachable. If the force is too strong, it is normal to shake. Please don't worry too much about this.
Don't understand the grounding, if this unit is to be hooked to a sub-panel via a transfer switch going up to a main panel that is earth grounded, why have the Lycan grounded with a rod. Generators have to be floating neutral in order not to cause a problem in the panel, please explain.
Connecting to the distribution panel only grounds the internal inverter output GND of the Lycan. External grounding of the Lycan is done to ground the entire device's metal casing. None of the above will result in neutral point grounding, and it will not affect the device's floating neutral.
What countries in América, different to US or Canadá, do you deliver this magnificent device? Guatemala City, is it possible? Thanks and greetings from Canadá 🇨🇦
Hi, Frank. According to the feedback from the Marketing Department, we currently have no plans to sell in Canada. If we have plans in the future, we will notify our customers on the official website at the first time. Stay tuned
I was loving this unit until I learned it is Not very portable since it is required to Ground to a Grounding Rod. I guess this is only for a (permanent set-up) in a shed, house or basement etc.,etc.

Is there a plan to make a 5000 watt split Phaze unit like this? This is almost the unicorn device I'm looking for? I need 120v 30 amps for my tiny home electrical. But I need also 220v split Phaze for my mini split, hot water heater and well pump. With this unit I couldn't go full off grid 😭, but much better product it seems then the plastic competition. Can these actually be left outside in powered up mode?
Hi, Chris. We are developing products that can support phase splitting and parallel output in the future. Please stay tuned And Lycan can be left outside in powered up mode.
@@RenogySolar one thing I did not notice until now, there is no 12 volt outlet. Can you use the Anderson plug that is meant for expansion to run a 12 volt load?
Hi, Chris. I am so sorry that Anderson plug can only be used to connect batteries in parallel. We will consider to add dc output port in later iteration. Please stay tuned.
@@RenogySolar please, one more question. I want to buy this and 2 extra batteries. I use 6000watts in one day, and want some back up. I'm wondering what solar panels I can use to max out the solar input. I was looking at Qcell Quantum 480 watt panels that are available locally, but I heard in another video that you have to stick to the voc limitations. Maybe there is a data sheet explaining what to look for in panels? Thanks.
Hi, Claude. We currently only sell lycan in US. After the product sales model is mature, we will expand the sales markets. I believe we will sell it in Canada soon. Stay tuned.

How much is the unit?
@@cuteone1702 Hi, this unit is $4,299.99. I hope this will help.
@@RenogySolar thanks it sure looks like a great unit 👍. I only buy Renogy panels (14) on my RV.
@@cuteone1702 You have 14 Panels on your RV what are they 10watters

How large of a generator is needed to charge this unit?
Hi, gerard.
Thank you for contacting Renogy. We suggest you use 20A 2400w generator.
why would you use a generator to charge this. Use solar, maybe a generator as a backup
