Component parts become unavailable, the engineering to make backward
compatibles, the liability, and time spent in support can make a company
unprofitable. Often the secondary market will step up if there is enough
demand.
This is nothing new BTW. You have to be in business to do business.
Shareholders insist on it!

Michael,
That's rather dis-heartening if boards are no longer available for a 10
year old product. Got a long day out of town today but will ruminate
on responses.

I just pulled out an 8048 and replaced it with a 8048A due to the lack
of AC boards for 8048s. I didn't know any better and put in a new 8048A
board and learned the hard way that they aren't cross compatible.
Smoked it. If you think you can find a board for it, it's yours.

Sorry if this is nonsense, but your existing Radian is your "AC grid
source," It can act as the paralleling.
AC coupling source. I did this about 20 to 30 years ago, using FX
inverters, not Radians, to power a large motor.
Can your Radian Mate 3 run in grid zero? Or if not, one inverter runs
all the time as a grid source ( grid forming)
the second inverter (grid following) runs in Grid-Zero mode, with
"off-set" set at 30 Amps. If the load is less than 30 amps,
the grid-following inverter carries the load. (The grid-forming
inverter supplies the grid signal, and the following inverter
carries the load.) When your load exceeds 30 amps, the extra current
comes from the grid-forming inverter. The Radian can
pass up to 50 or 60 amps from the forming inverter. You can get 50 to
60 amps
to the load when you add the forming and following inverters. Errors:
this will double your parasitic load, I have not done this
so beware. This is not the answer for V2H; other inverters can work in
this combination but

says I can't add the newer GS8048A to exiting version (no "A").
Ideas??
