I’m sitting here feeling dumb. I went out to the cabin and finally wired up my three 100w renogy panels in parallel, hooked them up to my little victron, and hooked up one of my new battle born batteries. I use it to power a little blade blue sea fuse block.

I disconnected the load before I left today but just realized that I forgot to fuse the panels to the controller and forgot to fuse the battery to the controller.

I got 2-3 hours of sun today after hooking it up and it all seemed to be running without issue.

I’m thinking I’m fine until I can get back out there friday. Or do I need to make a trip out tonight (an hour each way) and fix it. Particularly the fuse between the controller and battery.

Thanks
 
How confident are you on the wiring? How sunny is it going to be over the next few days?

The Battleborn BMS should provide some protection.

Your prob fine
