Yeah, it was BS. I did not understand the way the Midnite Solar GFI worked (bonded the ground to the DC neg), now I do and have it straightened out(y)

Here is what I have (I don't have much hair for pulling it out trying to understand this). Basically, I have an array, then 20 feet away a shed which contains the solar charge controller, battery, inverter. Inverter is a sungold 6kW split phase. It feeds two hots, neutral, and ground about 180...

He said they were 6 AWG, Can't be the wire too small.

Something is wrong. I have the Midnite combiner box and used the Midnite breakers and they locked down as tight as any breaker I have used. Can you take a pic with the wire in? Put the wire into the bottom before you attach the top to the combiner bar.

That is not always true. Can't remember the Midnite solar breakers exactly (I had to no problem with them), but I know that some breakers I have used when you loosen the screw all the way, the little U in there flops around. So, you can still get it behind the U.

Yep, same here.I haven't gone a year, but about 6 months. I have my solar system set so it quits charging just before the by-pass voltage for the packs (I built the packs from LG M-26 cells myself). And the packs are within 10 mV, as they have been from the start.

The only thing I can is, when you say, " ...and a capacitor for when you actually connect the battery to your inverter." I think you mean a resistor. Inverters tend to have large caps in them, and when hooking the battery to the inverter there tends to be a big inrush of current, so it is...

When you say, "oil." Did the plastic have oil on it? Removing an oil film should not be a problem; however, if it did not come off with soapy water it doesn't sound like oil. I wouldn't think IPA would hurt (since the surface of the panels is glass), whether or not it works depends on what the...

Did you read the OP!

I have a very strict policy" Do not lie to me." Tell me what it is, and 9999 times out of 10000 I will understand and hang in there. Lie to me, and I am through with the company. That more companies do not understand this is beyond my comprehension.

Well, the screen shot you posted from the manual is not for the electodacus that I have. I have the new re-designed electrodacus that looks like: Then the picture shows the pinout based on wire color. Well, I did not get a connector or wires with my unit, so the colors are meaningless. Yeah...

They may, although I haven't found one that gives the pin out for the connector. And, the one I got is the re-design, so it is not laid out the way the original is. I am sure the 10 pin connector is likely the same, but likely is not for sure.

Thank you sir. I have the manual, but without knowing what connector or what color goes where, it doesn't help that much. Thanks again.

Thanks, no worries, I do not expect this to be getting more than 10 amps.

I got one of these through the crowdfunder campaign, however, there was no connector for the balance leads, nor any info on what connector it takes or the pin-out for the balance leads. So, I can't use it. Since you have added all that, can you tell me what connector it requires and point me...
