Apologize if this should have been posted in the "beginner section".
I noticed that the algorithm on the 50 amp Renogy DC to DC charger with built in MPPT is rather strange. It limits alternator output to 25 amps when there is any solar coming in. Since my solar is unlikely to provide anywhere near 25 amps, I'd like to turn off my panels while driving to get the full 50 amps from the alternator.
Is the best way to do this is to simply install an inline switch on the power side of the solar cables ? This is what I do on standard 12v equipment in the van, but not sure of proper solar protocol since I'm dealing with a power source.
Is there a switch that you'd recommend?
