I’d like to connect a Jackery 300 to some HQST 100W panels (either one or two of them). I like the idea of having (permanent solar panels combined with flexibility of a portable battery). I like the Jackery 300 as it has a max input charge of 90w.
Questions:
1) do I need fuses between the panels and my DC input on the jackery? If so what size?
2) when the DC 8mm cord isn’t plugged into the jackery does it have potential to shock someone if left out. Just thinking of ways to secure the DC 8mm so as to not shock a small child (or adult)?
3) When matching voltage rating between panels and Jackery, do I need to ensure that the panel’s Open Circuit Voltage (Voc) is within Jackery’s input range or just the Optimum Operating Voltage (Vmp)?
