Agree with the two posts above. We went with two 100Ah LiFePO4's a while ago, but if I were to do it today, I'd go with a single larger LiFePO4 of at least 300Ah. This past winter I upgraded my 100W … (View Post)

That 5V difference is between the solar panel output and the battery. I believe it uses the open circuit voltage (Voc), not the maximum power voltage (Vmp). The mppt monitors the Voc before any curre… (View Post)

I was questioning that also. It would be interesting to hear from @pthomas745 what he meant by, " I think it ran almost constantly". Is there a condition that could cause the element to not… (View Post)

When running on electric, a 3-way uses different heating elements for 12V compared to 120V. Different voltage systems require elements with different electrical resistances to produce the same amount… (View Post)
