I heard “from a very reliable source” (who owns a distribution network which carries Magnum gear) that the Mexican factories to which they moved manufacturing kept getting burglarized and tools and materials were getting looted… and that may - along with other issues mentioned in this thread may...

Hi Folks, I’m planning on some type of 48v offgrid solar and inverter system for my wintering RV lot down in Yuma AZ (something like the EG4 6000xp and either Ruixu or EG4 wall mount batteries - eventually). BUT… right now I have a bunch of stuff to use (cheaply) that I’d like to toss on the...

Ok. I guess I got my disappointing answer. I can only use the me-bmk-l and the me-arc50-l with a magnum inverter. The pt100 MPPT controller will operate stand alone. Dumb! Not the answer I was looking for. Guess I’m gonna be in the market for a cheap magnum pure sine wave inverter…...

Will, et al - Anyone have a "proven track record" on using China-sourced "Elite New Energy" batteries? Yes, with LiFeP04's a year is a long time, since we're talking new players on the market every week it seems. They are a low cost source (apparently less than 1/2 of BB's - delivered to...

Is buying Solar (PV Array) wire safe to do on Amazon or will I be buying cheap garbage with no quality control which will catch fire!? Can anyone provide a recommended vendor for 8AWG Solar wire? I need to run several long lengths 50-75ft one way (so will need to spec it out for a round trip...

I’ve bought my second EG4 Hybrid Mini-Split HVAC unit (I love them!) to deploy on a 200sqft shed building on my property and it being a 10’ x 20’ roof dimension - coupled with the EG4’s 12amp max input on the DC PV array, I was thinking of buying 8 of these bifacial panels and putting them all...

Ya - I really just need a magnum inverter and I suppose I could go two directions. Buy an msh3012m and put all the magnum gear in my rv….. OR — buy a me4048 or me4024 and use it on my off grid rv lot. Not sure. What’s the rated output of a 4448? 4400va? Tom

What is the “PAE” extension suffix? How does that differ from just the ME4024?

I guess there’s a lot of us with similar “early 2000’s stock RV setups”…. Also don’t want to hijack the OP’s thread ;-) But I’m also in the “investigation stage” of figuring out just what new gear I want to put in my 40’ diesel pusher motorhome and how I want to wire it up…. As many RVs were...
