Like the title says, trying to sort out the advantages of the Mate3 upgrade from the Mate2.
I am using 2 stacked FX2524 OB inverters for 240 VAC and currently have the Mate2 controlling them through a hub4.
My Mate is fine and the system runs fine. I am a monitoring junky so the idea of the http access ability of the Mate3 appeals to me.
At about $430 from NAWS I need more than "web monitoring" to justify the upgrade.
Any opinions, especially from experienced users appreciated.
Thanks.
Tom
Tom,
I haven't used a Mate 3 but I am also a monitoring junky and I considered getting one. After researching it I decided is that my present setup using an old school Mate plus $50 Wattplot software running on a low power (11watt) $100 ebay netbook and using free VNC software is less expensive and more functional. I can also run the local app on it and my weather station software. I can access this from anywhere on the web, from my iphone, ipad etc. Screenshot below:
