I ran across the new units a few weeks ago and had saved them in my shopping list. I was looking for something to use for PV switching but decided to go remote instead.Thanks. I couldn’t find the newer version apparently my search skills are still very novice in comparison
Did the watts version come with the housing?
What prompts one’s choice on single pole vs double?
Cheap and I was not building to code.
You rebel.
Jigsaw the opening in the cover and file fit. The back of the breaker has some high spots to remove that’ll lower the hight so the cover doesn’t hold to pull down too hard.
You need to post a link to the particular episode, or no one will know what you’re referring to.

Slide into the top and bottom of the breaker, separate positive and negative.
That's a nice looking setup, especially the indicator if voltage difference between battery & system (e.g. need to pre-charge). What's the circuit you used to wire that in, to indicate pre-charge was needed? Or is that only when the button is pushed, it'll light that up (while pre-charging), and when it goes out it's pre-charged?
The original idea was to have two diodes to connect to the two the two inverters so they remain isolated when the breaker is off. The junction of the diodes would be connected to an LED and then to the battery so the light would illuminate when there’s a voltage differential. The problem was is no matter what LED I choose the LED the slowly charge the capacitors in both Inverters! Finally dug around a found an LED indicator lamp for AC and whatever they had used didn’t draw much current yet I could see the lamp though not too bright. In the works with cobbled up parts, is a digital voltage indicator(difference) that uses a mini DC to DC buck converter then a mini isolator to power it. The sense leads draw no detectable current. All of this can fit in the breaker box. Dead bugged it and it works. Rainy day project or round toit to burn it in to look for magic smoke before I install.
