I was enjoying my morning cup of coffee and stumbled across a part of Morningstar's website called tech support.
I own several of their Sunsaver controllers
http://www.solar-electric.com/ss-10.html
so decided to do a little reading. Two papers that caught my eye were
"Charging Isolated Battery Banks with one PV Array" http://www.morningstarcorp.com/en/support/library/ALL.APP.Isolated_Batteries.01.EN.pdf
and
"Charging Isolated Battery Banks - 1 controller " http://www.morningstarcorp.com/en/support/library/ALL.APP.Iso_Banks_1Controller.01.EN.pdf
Knowing how popular these controller are, and being previously unaware that they were capable of these configurations, I thought it appropriate to share.
Hopefully it will benefit someone in the future.
There was also an interesting paper called
SunSaver Test Report from Sandia National Labs http://www.morningstarcorp.com/en/support/library/SS.APP.Sandia_Lab_Report.01.EN.pdf
It covers the design of the Sunsaver. Great stuff to be gleaned from this paper.
Wishing you all clear, cold, sunshine,
Jonathan
