The inverter fan may turn on to protect the unit even when not under high load, especially on warm days. This is a normal protection feature; ensure there is sufficient airflow around the inverter.
To maximize battery life, it is recommended not to discharge lead-acid or gel batteries lower than 50%. Deep discharges significantly shorten the cycle life of the battery.
This typically indicates the battery voltage is momentarily too high, often occurring on very sunny days or when a high-load appliance is switched off abruptly. The system creates this alert while stabilizing the voltage to protect the batteries.
Many GRIDFREE kits are designed for DIY installation under Extra Low Voltage (ELV) regulations (<120VDC). However, any aspect involving AC voltages (240V) or voltages above ELV requires a registered electrician by law in New Zealand.
