Hi all. I was looking at this video of our host
I think what he is missing is the solar panel system for such budget setup, so I'm asking here instead:
Is it safe to connect a, say, 40v-max-rated panel to that "dumb" 12v battery? I guess not (if it does not fry the battery, then it may fry the inveri?)...
Or does the charge controller do that stepping down of the voltage? I think they don't do that...
But then that means quite a few 12v panels in parallel, right? I found that on the market the larger and more powerful panels are typically around 30-40v.
Am I missing something?
