Theres thick stranded and thin. Thin is for dc wireing and thick is for ac wiring. The current travel's around a wire not in it less strands less power more strands more flow on opposite end ? It can be done your way but is it smart to do . I say no and I'm not a great person to ask I just...

Thick stranded lots over voltage drop

I would read the wire manual you showed me it states do not use ac wire for d c wire . Do not use thick stranded either? Come on smoothjoey only use on ac side solid or thick stranded . Would it work yes for a while .is it safe ?no !

But do you think it's good or better to balance the input to both opposing ends of adiagonally/ parallel set up .versus everything connected on one end .

Dont thank me . It's up to you to read up . Smooth Joey sent me this the other day as I wanted to understand 4 batteries in parallel and in my mind knew there was other was to connect up to and feed from opposite sides enjoy that is I am enjoying that book to . Thank you smooth joey .

Take a peice of tape and tape batery and put its value on it and you can refer easily when checking it . Dates time voltage are great references to fall back on ? Trickle charge to get life back in . Then make a test and run down check voltages and charge again to get a cycle going not storage...

Put 2 batteries together to make a 12 v and charge slow . Get readings from independently first then connect 2 together then get 12v reading and slow charge for half the day and check all voltages to see its potential

You should be able to save . But never put a battery on the ground, has always been a rule ! I would probably say you need to trickle change each one separately and check levels? Check them to see if they hold a charge after a few days to determine if they will still work . Distilled water is...

Sorry I had no connection to reply. Yes I'm very happy with wire guide and I'm already hooked up with diagonally and I will put my charger on the end of my battery connections

Love this info my new bible!

Yes , this is what I like to do for some reason in my mind of power being used at same time power coming in ? Was bugging me thank you

I'm not an expert but I would say after searching and watching much solar you should build a tilting bracket. Buy or build... The cheapest thing is homedepot steel brackets with holes used to mount garage door opening mechanism. It's full of holes and can be made to tilt any direction? Hope...

This helps solve most everything except pulling power and feeding 3 items. And there placement. Should mppt and inverter be connected at same point as dc to dc charger ? Should I cross feed opposite on batery bank

Taking opposite poles to distribute energy flow is my thinking?

I kind of understand you but than I dont fully get it /how. My first draft of wireing set up was to have each battery connections go directly to buss bar individually. Then connect dc to dc charger and mppt with inverter on buss bar . After trying to watch video and read it got confusing and I...

Either connect at buss bar with inverter and mppt connections. Or connect to back end of battery bank (x4).reason for thinking of it is understanding how power can come in and go out on same stud and charge at same time . My mind says it cant work . May not be correct but sounds good?

Yes just trying to connect dc to dc controller and cant get answers on place to connect at . Though it would be best to fead the end of parallel battery bank. Versus connect at same side mppt and inverter are . And wondering if I need anything to help balance x4 battery bank

I have a renogy system (1)40 amp mppt (4) 100w. Panels connected in series (4) lithium iron batteries in parallel (1)2000w inverter (1) 20 amp dc to dc charger My question is after I have battery connections in parallel to a (4) stud post negative and (4) stud post positive I go directly to...
