Does this exist? Solar string switch

The Ecoflow Delta 2 Max has 2 solar inputs, so I have 2 strings of panels connected. Each has a pair of 200w panels mounted on a fence facing south. Towards the end of the day these don’t produce much. so I sometimes will swap out one of the strings to a portable 450w panel that I can face west and get a couple more hours of sun. I have very limited space that gets sun, so I can’t have a large array.

I would like to permanent mount a pair of 250w panels facing west and have a way to easily switch between it and one of the other strings without have to manually disconnect the cables. (I struggle with disconnecting mc4 connections, even with the tool). Does a switch that can do this exist?

Solar disconnect for small array to a power station?

I’ve seen some YouTubers suggesting to use a solar disconnect for power stations, so you can disconnect and connect under load to avoid damaging the power station or causing a fire. I’ve also seen a couple of videos where they advise against using one, because it adds an additional point of failure. I have a small 800w array that‘s connected full time to a 2000kWh Ecoflow delta 2 max with 2 extra batteries. Can anyone share any opinions on using a disconnect switch in this scenario?

M1 iPad Pro charging solution?

The usb-c port on my 12.9 5th gen iPad Pro has been malfunctioning for a while now. Hard to get it to charge. I understand that it can pass through charge from a magic keyboard, but that is an expensive solution. I’m seeing wireless chargers, like this one sold on Amazon, but some reviews say the don’t last long. Has anyone used one of these? if so can you share your experience?

A little personality for a silver Neo

I like the indigo Neo, but I just couldn’t stand that blue keyboard. So I ended up getting the silver, and the white keyboard is just so fresh! So I decided to use an indigo tinted cover to give it a bit of personality. The change is subtle, and hard to see in the photo, but it looks really cool in person!

Delta 3 Classic app features

I have a Delta 2 Max with extra batteries that I use with a transfer switch. My modem/router are on a different circuit, so I‘m considering getting a Delta 3 Classic specifically for that circuit.

I understand that the different Ecoflow devices may have different app features. Can anyone confirm that the app for the Delta 3 Classic has this feature where you can set a time range for AC charging?

Hey all. First time mac user here. Really not even, because I haven’t actually used it. All I’ve done is turn on my Neo. I opened the lid to power it on, but not touched the keyboard to even begin setup, and it immediately heated up on the bottom. The heat is on the left towards the rear. I understand the Neo has no fans, but Is normal for it to be warm with nothing going on?

I just updated the app for my Delta 2 Max and found that they have included a new “feature” called Device remote protection that allows Ecoflow to remotely access device settings! WTF! It’s disabled by default, but WTF! I don’t want them even having the ability to remotely change my settings. The app is the thing I liked most about Ecoflow, but now I’m considering deleting it.
