DIY build of a wall mounted 120Ah 48V LFP battery. Nat Gas conversion on a Champion Generator. More recently, I have developed a couple of PCB control boards for the use of a Midnight Solar Remote Trip breaker in place of a golf cart contactor and also a low power usage latching contactor to replace a golf cart type contactor.
