Am I reading this right?

I wonder if the lifetime KWH data in the classic can be corrupt? I wonder this because my log reads 674489.1 KWH to date.  That would be like 60,000 dollars if sold for .09c a KWH   ???

Problem is, this classic has only been online for less than a year.  I have another classic on solar which has been online for a year and half with 3.8kw of solar and only made about 7,000 kwh.  This one with 674489.1 KW has 4.6kw of solar but has been on again off again.  So?  I don't know, maybe I am reading the screen wrong.

Watt, if you read through the  posts here I am sure you will find a thread or 2 about faulty records for Lifetime total Kwh

Thanks, I did a search and only came up with this thread as a result.  May not have used the right keywords.  Anyway, sounds like it's not the first so, I'll move on to getting some work done.  Thanks again.

Yes I had the same excessive amp hours on mine and reset it . Here is the link to the thread on how to do this

Read through all the posts - I had some trouble getting it to work until I figured out it was case sensitive .

I would have expected this for amp-hours but I'm not sure why the kW-Hours are doing this.

Will look into it.

Thanks for the input !

Thanks CC for this link and information. 

I'm not at all worried about this data.  As long as my watts are getting the right place so the watts can do their job, so be it.  The only time I will have a problem is if the screen says " hey, you have made too many watts and I can't make no more cuz there is not enough room to display the lifetime KWH".

boB, thanks for your reply, I have no issues with this log so don't waste anytime you could otherwise be dedicating to your inverters.  Hint Hint  ;)
