Power consumption of the inverter is around 200 W
I have a 8Kw Inverter with batteries and Solar Panels. Been watching various videos by Keith where he keeps repeating that the inverter "only" uses 50 W.
Whenever I add up the numbers from the Sunsynk Connect App - I always seems to be getting around 250 W "missing" in the Power flow table.
Example:
Solar: 3660 W
Battery charging: 2125 W
House consumption: 1286 W
Grid: 0 W
Doing the math "3660-2125-1286 = 249 W" - so this would be the inverter!!! - is a lot more then the 50 W always mentioned....
What am I missing here?
Thanks

From what I know you loose some in the transformation.
Is solar to house is not 100% convert dc to AC, it looses some.
So 200 / 1486 ( house plus 200w, taken off the 50w for inverter) = 13.4% lose. So that's about 86.5% efficiency, which is what I have seen people on here mention before, although I think sunsynks data sheets say more than that.
