I’m trying to figure out a way to wire a panel so that it can feed 2 different solar generators (separately). I want to not disconnect and reconnect the mc4 Solar connectors to the individual generators and was hoping there was a switch to go from one output to another easily

Hi, I have 4 panels, to run 2s2p and will end up having about 15-16A at 70V to my SCC. Would 12AWG wire CCA be ok for this? about a 35 foot wire run. Thank you!

Hi, I’m planning a 24v build and will likely use a 24v to 12v converter to power some 12V DC loads, like DC battery chargers, USB charging ports, via cigarette lighter adapters. How do you know what size fuses to put in the fuse block that is powered by The 24v to 12 converter? and what wattage...

Investigating an AIO either MPP vs Growatt Does the LV2424 allow the inverter to be switched off (physical switch?) and if so, what is the idle consumption of the unit? I only plan to use the inverter a few hours a day. and how good is power saving mode? Why wouldn’t everyone util it (unless...

Thinking about using this Epever SCC for my 24V setup. There seems to be some old and some new info on this model. According to the Amazon listing, this model does support LiFePo4 batteries out of the box, without fussing around with settings, but on other posts I see that you need the MT-50...

Hi, I’m looking to design a small system with 4 panels, 260w each, using 24v system. Can. You please look to see if any improvements/ suggestions? Any ideas on favorite SCC, Battery, inverters as well. What gauge wires should I be using? What am I missing? Thank you!

Hi, I have 5 panels I'm considering powering an anker 767. They are 260w approx 40voc panels. because they are in 2 separate locations, the panels would be mounted in a group of 3P and a group of 2P. Because the anker supports one PV input, there is an XT60 plug where they all come together and...

Hi everyone. Looking for suggestions on a 24V 200AH battery. Saw the EG4 one, and may do that one ($300 shipping ouch!) but wondering if any others are recommended here. Thanks!

I'm researching using 4 260W REC solar panels (used) to charge a 24V LiFePo4 battery 200AH. I was looking at various models and it seems for a SCC, Epever AN or BN series, or Victron, or Renege are popular. What is your favorite one? I was thinking of a 60A model, to future proof the system a...

Hi Any issue using 2 260w panels and 2 255 w panels together? Thinking 2 of 260w in series, 2S for the 255w panels then parallel together to the AIO device Thanks

Hello, I’m planning on building a simple set up, with four used solar panels, charging a 24V 200 amp hour battery. My idea is to use it as a Level 1 charger for my EV, probably a few hours a night. Does anyone have any feedback on the best all in one unit, growatt versus MPP? Things to consider...

Hi, I have 3 used REC 260w Solar panels that I was going to wire up in series in order to charge a battery and a 2000w inverter. Was looking for a bit of help here. Should I use a Renogy Rover charge controller with a ? 200Ah 24v battery and a 2000w inverter (any ideas on brand/...

Hi, looking to build a small shed off grid panel setup to charge a 100AH 48v Server Rack battery. If I get 4-5 hr of sun per day, what is the calculation I use to see how many panels I need to charge it? Thanks for helping out a noob

Hi Everyone. I'm getting my first EV in a few months and toying with the idea of making a small Level 2 charging system over the shed. This would be off grid, using 4-6 used solar panels (TBD) and was thinking of trying to do a 240V charger using 2 of these 3000EHV-48 EG4 inverters. Is that the...
