Is Voltello compatible with my existing battery?
Most batteries are configured to charge when there is surplus solar, i.e. when energy is being exported to the grid. When the Voltello link device activates export control (when we limit exports) we maintain a small level of exports (0.05 kW) to ensure the battery sees surplus solar and charges. As the charging rate increases, we also increase the solar production to meet the needs of the battery while never exporting more than 0.05 kW.
