Am I doing this correctly? Little clips into the display then tighten the stars down to the enclosure? Odd way to secure it I guess it’s clean as you don’t need any surface screws seen from the outside. Sorry for the crappy pics

https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/future-eclipses/eclipse-2024/where-when/ Going to be interesting to see how the grid manages all that PV behind the meter shut off then come back on. Luckily New Englands major solar fields won’t be in the direct path, but mid west Ohio region (black out 2008...

https://42freeway.com/news/vision-solar-of-washington-twp-furloughs-all-employees/ Ouch, amazed this hasn’t made more news. For the countless quality installers, there’s always one that tarnishes the industry. Yet another great example of being self sufficient and DIY.

Looking to convert my 2P4S 230ah bank to a 24v 8s and would like to jump from JBD to JK. I’d like to stick with 200a range. Is there any reason to go with the more expensive JK-B2A24S20P, vs JK-B2A8S20P? This is for a modest 2.5 season camp with plans for a 3k inverter, maybe a 9k mini split...

Came across this, surprised I haven’t seen more comments about it https://www.victronenergy.com/inverters-chargers/easysolar-ii-gx Seems like everything you’d need, low idle consumption, LF inverter for large motor starting, sizable MPPT charging capability with good VOC specs. 24 or 48v...

Looking to source panels “locally” in NH and came across this site, anyone purchase from them? Looks like I can pick up locally 50 miles away in Mass and save shipping which will be about a wash for sales tax but I won’t have to worry about shipping damage. Looking for panels with a VOC of 40v...

What won’t help is the number of EV cars using LiFePo batteries are also increasing dramatically with scarcity of Li-Ion materials. I’d love to know the % of Teslas being made with LiFePo cells these days, I think it’d shock many people.

Who’s ready for more competition in the LifePo cell market? https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1133942_tesla-plans-shift-to-lfp-cells-for-model-3-and-model-y-likely-with-us-production Begs the question of US sourced manufacturing will start up.
