The Atkinson gscm mini is $225 for my generator. No wifi.

Well I contacted Atkinson and they sent me the wiring diagram to use with the gscm mini. $225 for the unit plus some connectors, wire and fuses. I could add the battery switch relay, but I will just turn the battery switch on when the solar batteries may be compromised.

Getting over my head. Maybe I should just consider a 2 wire ready auto start generator?

It's on a rocker switch. Top starts, bottom stops, run in the center. The pic shows the wiring configuration.

I guess the next question is "what would stop the generator as the start pins and stop pins are separate?

I have a champion remote start generator. My inverter charger is a Sun Gold 3000 watt with the Built in green 2 wire auto start port. Can I simply run the 2 wire to the two top pins on the remote/ electric start button, understanding that I would have to leave the battery switch on?

I own this system for my off grid cabin. (Rps 200 with 2- 100 watt panels) I have it connected to the reverse action pressure switch and a 20 gallon pressure tank and use it for all of my water. It is a little finicky in cloudy conditions and the pump will only pump about a gallon a minute...

Yeah, I'm skeptical. It is only a 12/24 I would be inclined to get 150 volt in case I expand.

It's 41, so double that in series and I'm 82, so all is well. Thanks again.

Thanks. So, if I get a new 100 amp mppt charge controller, am I good on the 100-150 volt limitation with my configuration? Or does that voltage address the battery bank and not the panel output?

So, I don't think it is even getting 45 amps from the panels as wired. Thanks'

I guess I am confused. If each set of panels wired in series put out 10.34 amps x 3 sets=31 amps. Wouldn't that be the maximum amperage the 45 amp charge controller could use?

I have an off grid cabin. I have recently upgraded to a 24 volt 3000 watt inverter charger and added 4 more for a total of six 345 watt solar panels 10.34 amps, 41/ 33.37 volts. I have the panels wired in 3 sets of 2 in series and paralleled in the combiner box with three 15 amp breakers. That...
