Re: Making multiple sources play nicely together
Are you suggesting that voltage be measured on the panels? If so, that won't work... the panel voltage will be the battery voltage (with a PWM controller) or higher (up to Voc) with an MPPT controlle…2 · -
Re: Which inverter charger would you buy
Neither. The grid is the way to go. Regarding your budget, don't forget that both of those inverters are incomplete without their controls, shunts, battery monitors etc. Many folks buy an inverter a…1 · -
Re: EastPenn (Deka) UltraBattery
If carbon lowers the internal resistance of a LA battery, then it should lower the Peukert factor. If the Peukert factor is lower, that means the amphour capacity of the battery should be increased …1 · -
Re: LBCO Voltages...
a RESTING voltage of about 48 volts represents 50% SOC for many lead acid batteries. In a operating off grid system, resting voltage is an abstract concept. It doesn't occur. If you set your LBCO (= …6 · -
Re: Opinions and information of the Magnum PT-100 MPPT charge controller?
That is certainly an issue. You need the control panel. What USUALLY happens with extreme over-paneling is that a couple of hours before the sun is high enough to make full power, the batteries are …2 ·
