Dug into the existing solar on the new nest. What a mess, 10 awg from cc minus goes to some kind of terminal I never seen before. 2 - 22 awg leave and go somewhere. CC was showing 7 amps to batteries but there was a good 2/10 volt drop. Disconnected panel input, corrected battery wiring and hooked up a Victron 100/20 along with a dirty used 240 watt panel. Hit 12.5 amps and peaked at 209 watts. Stayed in absorb about 4 hours. A little over 700 watts for the day.
Not bad for a quick and dirty.
