hello solar wizards,
currently, I have a perfectly (newbie grin) designed & usable system for my current needs and consumption (main components below):
-- 400W solar panels,
-- a Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 100V 30 amp 12/24-Volt SCC (sending energy at 30 amps tops)
--12V 300A CHINS LiFeO4 battery (charging at max 30 Amps)
--2000W Inverter.
Looking in the future, I would like to add more panels and use the extra solar energy to power more devices (above the 30Amps max current battery charge) -- basically sending the extra Amps produced from solar, to devices rather than the battery max amp charge -- at least during daytime/sunlight hours -- while minimizing the extra expenses into additional other devices.
Is this possible with the current setup or with minimal extra electronics/devices? or bigger batteries/SCC's and/or GroWatts are the typical solutions !? (on an initial take, it seems the hard limitation is the Victron SCC at 30Amps, but also the battery max charge amps)
thank you kindly for any thoughts --
