When the CHINA switches off the sale of solar panels
With China hackers and their backdoors into every tech product now ...
I don’t let my inverters ‘talk to the cloud’, How do we know that some upgrade (hacked most likely) will be embeded in our residential systems, such that a prolonged grid outage (war start) will trigger the inverters to ‘brick’ themselves. iow — code that will destroy the firmware when the time comes.
My take is that if my inverter will operate, with communication path to the cloud OFF, for weeks on end, ITS NOT HACKED. And I leave it that way. Yes, I monitor, but that’s 100% local and never hits the internet.
