I recently saw a video where the user connected the positive coming out of a 100/30 Victron MPPT, then a 40 amp breaker, to a 1500 watt inverter positive post that also had 2 AWG cables connected to one 100 amp 12 volt battery. This enabled him to run high peak voltage AC appliances like chop saws and air compressors off of one battery, as long as the sun was shining. This was different than most system configurations that I've seen.
Is this advisable as long as there is a breaker that's slightly larger than the MPPT rating? or should the solar DC always go into the battery, then to the inverter?
