Well powers has done tons of recordings on All-In-One inverter/controllers but it would take hours to rewatch all of them again. So, I would like to ask a question of these controllers.
I’ve been using the MPPT 2424lv for two years, but I need to get a different one because to use the 2424lv I have now, I had to modify my home sub electrical box by slitting it into two sections and removing the 220 volt and connecting the 120vac output into the panel.
The park I live in is having an inspection and one of the things they are looking at is if the electrical sub panel has been tampered with. So, I’m looking for a good all-in-one controller that puts out both 120v/220vac without having to parallel two controller to get the 220vac. That way I can connect it to my sub panel without any modifications.
All the controllers that I’ve looked at either require an external Auto Transformer or requires connecting two controllers in parallel to get the 220vac.
My research on these auto transformers like the one by Growth, have problems with electrical balance and heat as they only have one coil, and they tape into the one coil to get 120/220 vac. – not good!
Does anyone in this group have any recommendations of a good controller/inverter that has the transformer inside it to deliver both 120/220vac output without having to parallel two controllers. – My home is only using on the average 350 watts per hour and up to 900 watts when the house heater comes on.
