I ran ALL the loads last nite too this first pic after dark. My load was under my estimate at a about 20 Watts. I guess the devices are not pull Max rated power real usage is actually lower!!! wow! I took the second pic this morning at dawn after turning off the LED light. I used 85 percent...

THANKS for looking at my Frankenstein RIG!!! OK I just photoshopped the 2 readouts controller Read out AND the Battery Meter read out 1 renogy solar 100 Watt panel. 30FT leads The load is 110v 2 IP WIFI cams. .5 amps each 1 smart...

Thanks for the clarification. I thought "up" arrow was electron flow out of the battery.!! I have added two more images. The EPEVER 40MMPT shows the Renogy GEL 110ah is now full (6 hours Direct Sunlight). Two lights flashing. I RE-Calibrated the battery monitor. to ZERO then 100% per...

Oh wow, OK i never thought these little cams pulled that much juice I actually never calculated my energy usage and really need to examine that. The load is a static number of devices so it should be a known value to calculate total usage. This energy usage awareness is another component that...

I wanted to update my thoughts on usage at night mostly 12 hours a day not 24 hours a day so my load is probably half on a sunny day? just during overnight? Thanks for any advice

yeah, no , the renogy is just a battery meter.

I changed the configuration showing the CSS-neg going to the shunt on P- I made a video after a minute or so in the sunlight the Battery meter slowly strobes and the hours remaining dropped to 31 then to 16. Now in shade no direct sun I get the last picture.

I got help getting my battery meter Connected and the shunt installed correctly. Now I have some confusion about conflicting information from the devices. I read the manuals. Which sensor to trust for accuracy? My MPPT has two Green LEDs both flash slowly when full charge is reached. My...

I did as you advised. I have images of the system in both conditions Inverter is ON and OFF

There is not programming of the parameters in the battery meter so no.

Why only 7 hours on time remaining with the inverter off do I just not understand? why are the arrows pointing UP like power is going out? or is it charging up now. such a novice right?

I read this the other day and it helped me get my shunt wired up and some other guys helping with my battery readout now! thanks snoobler

I built this system and it works. I wanted to add a Renogy Battery Meter RMB500 Per instructions for the Renogy Battery Meter: I put the shunt inline with the Negative to the battery on B- I put the charge controller and inverter on P- In that configuration, the battery meter flashes all the...

First build , going on 3 years no problem, now I have LOW PV output in direct sun>battery goin down daily> Original build pic is included, it worked fine for long time now I get 12.7 volts no load direct sun as indicated on my MT50. Im scratching my head now my solar panel is clean and...
