My Goal: to never pay for charging (Solar) -- my automation process

[Gasmuzic]

Yes , but numbers are wrong. 9.6 kw from HIS and 7.2 kw and 2.4 kw (separate circuits) from the PPO for total of 19.2 kw from the Lightning at any time.

Thanks So Much! I did not know that the outboard power could be separated like that. I understand the 2.4kW and the 9.6kW separation but the ability to also gain another 9.6kW simultaneously from the Home Integration System is amazing!!
Has anyone on the forum been able to accomplish this?

Nice. Like seeing others doing this too. Makes so much sense in the long run.

Our much smaller system, after now switching our system to Victron components, is about 10% paid for after a year. (about $6k after rebates). 15kw of battery, 5kw mobile of it mobile, on the handcart. 3.6kw of used panels charging.

We can only charge at a max of 16amps, but since we both work from home, and only average about putting 6-7k miles on the truck/year, works out great for us. We can put as much as around 50 miles back in a day. Also powers the mini-split in the garage, giving me my temperature controlled man-cave.
