To test my Delta DC charging, I now purchased a 48v 20a power supply. Looks like my Delta Pro is fine with charging from this PS. I tested it with XT60 cable and got the full 8 amps it provides. I then tested it with the solar cables and got 15.7 amps, 754 watts. That is "probably" good enough in an extended outage situation. I will be testing the PS to see what the AC watt draw is on it. It will give me an idea what a more powerful PS would draw for my auto based inverter charging solution.
I might try the 72v 16.6a PS I found, but it takes weeks to arrive and is probably not returnable. And I already burned up one PS. Maybe @Boo3 could let me know exactly what PS he is using.
As for the variable voltage PS that would not charge the DP above 24v, I do not know why that is the case, but file it away as extra knowledge. I'll be returning that one for sure.
Found a 80v 18a that looks close to what @Boo3 is reporting.
