    Alright, I've gone over everything multiple times and don't see anything I've messed up. Checked all connections, tested and swapped everything I can think of, checked settings and reset it. No fault codes and everything is "normal" but it's not charging more than 1A in full sun with a low...

    Current Situation in Middle Tennessee!

    Thanks for the add! This looks like my kind of place! I've been playing with low budget solar powered floats for the last couple of years. Started off with a little paddle boat so I could get out on the water while my hot rod boat was down, but I instantly got hooked, started upgrading and...
