Hi. I have 8 x 100 watt Renogy panels. I want to buy rail and clamps but am having a hard time finding small quantities. Any suggestions? Thanks.

I’m stumped. Sorry this is a dumb question. I have an SOK 206 connected to a Victron 1200 inverter and a smartshunt 500. I want to set the low voltage shut off level but can’t figure out how to do that in the inverter or shunt. Do do I need to add an extra device for this? Any pointers are...
