Hi,
I recently set up a solar system in my van and it is all working well except for one small (potentially huge) thing. I have a kill switch wired directly off of the battery with the intention to be able to quickly shut off power should anything go wrong. When I turn it to the off position though, my lights and fan still run for a couple of minutes, as if there is power just chilling in the system somewhere. Is this normal? Is it ok? Is there anything I should/can do about it? I'd be really grateful for any advice. :D
My setup is a modified version of Will Prowse's 400w system with alternator charging. I've attached a drawing of what's connected.
