    100%, but then it always has.
    My 2017's are the stack masters,  both show 100%
    Mine are at 98%.
    Wonder if it's something to do with the difference in inverters ?? Mine being single and yours a parallel ??
    Yeah possibly, the lad who sold me the cable gave me another term to try, but I haven't done it yet

    At the console screen type the command:

    login debug

    this will change the prompt from Pylon> to Pylon debug>

    now type the command pwrsys

    Cheers, I'll try that.
    The Lux web portal also shows it for the whole stack under configuration > inverters.

    That works, same SOH as the Lux web portal reports, 98%.

    I take it you'd need to disconnect all your Pylons from each other to get the individual SOH of each battery ?

    As per my understanding US2000B(80%DoD) is now US2000 Plus ( 90% DoD). 
    https://midsummerwholesale.co.uk/buy/pylontech/pylon-plus
    then they have with 95% DoD
    https://midsummerwholesale.co.uk/buy/pylontech/pylon-US2000C or a US3000C
    I am not sure apart from the DOD what's the difference. ?

    Probably the only other difference is life cycles.
    With the Plus, it's 6000 cycles at 90% DOD and the C looks to be 4500 at 95%.

    Yeah I was referring to the link you posted for the US2000C so comparing 2.4kwh modules.
    US3000 is 3.5kwh.

    Yeah I did, finally got round to it today. 
    So get this, my 2019 battery is at 98%
    My 4 x 2018 are all at 96%
    Weirdly my 3 x 2017 batteries are all at 100%
    And the 3000 which is a 2019 iirc is at 100%

    Everything has been running down to 10% for the last year, so it all seems happy with 10%

    It's a bit of a faff disconnecting all, then connect with commix then dosconnect, connect with the othee thing and then send the commands, but I'm likely only to do it every year or so, so it's not a great task.

    Maybe this should be in your lux thread actually??
