My Shed setup is up and running!

I spent a little while accruing the gear needed to utilise the SSE orientation of my ManCave.

I used 8 x 470w Jinko panels and 2 x 2250w 4MPPT microinverters to bring installed power to 3.76kwh.

I added a bidirectional RCBO to my sheds CU rather than rely solely on "plug-in".

I am delighted with the result and my next step will be figuring out a cost effective way to add an AC coupled battery.

I want to ensure maximum power usage and my house's daily load over the year averages about 14kwh per day so offsetting and battery will I ope ,allow me to cover a lot of my own usage even with my relatively small array.

Folks I have 2 Nanjing iFusion tech IS-2000-4T microinverters that I installed last week.
I have run into an issue with monitoring them as the app won't allow me to sign in or create an account.

Either action generates a "Service Does Not Exist" error message.
The website is also throwing an error when trying to download the app. http://58.213.162.164:24380/appdown/inverter.apk

I have contacted the company via their "contact us" page as well as their made-in-china seller page but have yet to have any reply in over a week.

I have tried using Solarman app as a workaround but unfortunately the device serial isn't recognised.

I do have a home assistant set up but without at least being able to pair the inverter to my WiFi?
I am at a loss as to how to proceed with accessing the devices.
I know that I can use CT clamp monitoring to track generation if I can't find any other option, but I'm hoping that perhaps others here have encountered the same issue and found a workaround.
Any ideas or input will be much appreciated.
