"Here - Hold my Beer"
LOTS OF RAMBLING - SKIP TO THE LAST SENTENCE IF YOU ARE IN A HURRY...
Yes i know i should have posted this in the SCC section but most of the ppl i hang with are here so one of the moderators can move it to the right section once I get busted ...
SOOO we have this SECURITY subcontractor out here that has, I guess, guarded the gates since Custer was a 2LT ... The guy is old, (honestly - probably pushing 75+) ... really really nice, probably not the richest person out here (the security guards don't get paid much which makes NO sense since they carry 9mm and AR-15's - I mean really- who thinks its a good idea to pay the guys with automatic weapons the least amount out here - in the middle of a desert - where ppl disappear all the time - anyway - I digress)...
SOOO he is about 25 miles out in the middle of nowhere on a single highway we use guarding a security gate -- we provide him water every three days and we have a 5kw generator running non-stop since like 1970 they say to help cool him down during the day -- BUT apparently the 5k causes the voices in his head to get louder and he was wondering if he got some solar panels could we hook them up for him and he would only use the 5K when he needed to.. .. of course we said sure ...
Suddenly 15 (not ours) 260W 31V solar panels showed up about a week ago and we need to get him a MPPT SCC that will work but that he has to pay for .. (Our company is treacherous on us even giving Free advice away let alone an old SCC laying around ... SOOO he needs to keep the SCC under $300 he says since he's paying ...
NO he is NOT trying to run the AC's at all on solar - but he likes to sit outside and listen to the coyotes and not hear the 5K running all the time ..
Not going to try to talk him down about not needing 100A's of charging - just want to help the old guy out and move on ...
He has a good inverter ... he just needs the SCC .. all the stuff i am familiar with is a pretty hefty chunk of change more than he can afford and i don't want to get him something thats going to burn his trailer down (refer back to automatic weapons and voices paragraph)
Anyway - anyone have a suggestion for a inexpensive 80 or 100A SCC ?? THX
