Hi everyone, newbie here..
Recently purchased an HQST (HQST-100D-SPP) 100W solar panel that included MC4 connectors
I also purchased an MC4 to 8mm adapter for my solar generator.
Couple of questions...
1. Does this connection look secure? Seems the tabs are not long enough to "click" into place
2. Is this connection waterproof, or do I need to wrap it with something?
3. If I want to disconnect this, I understand I need a tool. I've read some comments that the HQST MC4 connector may not be standard (in the photo it is on the right side) Does it sound like I might need 2 MC4 tools? One HQST/Renogy specific, and one generic?
Thank you!
