Can't wait to hear the results. With a wind like that, hope it starts on it's own. If it doesn't, will disconnecting a charge wire momentarily allow it to spin up and stay turning when the wire is reconnected? I would expect the current to be around 12 amps when the battery voltage is 13.1 volts.ok, feed has been restored to the building, I rewired the spare dump load into the feed line just before the junction block that feeds the batteries and the dump load solenoid. Brought both meters out there and left them by the controllers. Just waiting on the wind now. Expecting 30-40 mph tomorrow, should be interesting. For now, just staining some new traps on the woodstove getting ready for woodchuck season.
Hopefully the wind will be coming from the north, since I limited the rotation, it wont furl if the wind comes from the Southeast, maybe I will cut it loose in the morning, at least one more quadrant t give it some room to furl.
Did the dump load relay ever turn on with the old batteries?
