SolarEdge optimizer hell!

[SunEagle]

Neighbors that I speak of are the optimizers in series. If they read the voltage and current data between them. In case of solaredge, this is done by the central inverter. But, I do not know for other cases like solarmagic.

There might be a setup process that requires a serial number to be programmed into the inverter or some other unique link required to make the equipment "talk" to each other.

I echo the concerns over SolarEdge HD system. I completed my home install in September 2018 here in Colorado, The inverter crapped out in early November. I installed the replacement inverter. The new inverter is showing power drops during the day that i can't explain. Using their diagnostic tool i see the optimizers are having trouble regulating to a smooth continuous shape. Voltage and current are sporadic. The string voltages are within limits at least. Calling support tomorrow, see what they say.
