Hello Wrenches, I need a 6-volt approximate 10-watt solar module and a 6-volt charge controller and timer similar to the Morningstar 12-volt SL-10L-12V. Thanks in advance for your recommendations. Best regards, Joel Davidson ___ List sponsored by Hom

Re: [RE-wrenches] Amp hr meters

Mac, Adding to Dan's sage advice: No inverters have amp-hour meters built directly into them. Magnum and Outback have the ability through their respective BOS peripherals to provide that information to the user, but it's not part of the inverter. Both are shunt

Re: [RE-wrenches] Amp hr meters

Hi Mac, Answers to #2, XW has only a volt meter. Its not set up for an amp hr meter add on. Outback is set up for amp hr with Flex net. Magnum is set up with their battery cap meter add on. #3 yes they need to be reprogramed for aging. All take different programing protocols. jay peltz po

Re: [RE-wrenches] Amp hr meters

Mac; I'll give it a shot here. 1) Yes. EVERYTHING that might consume or produce energy needs to be connected thru the shunt off the main negative battery terminal for the amp-hour meter (watt-hour meter, these days) to work correctly; 1a) I am just getting familiar with the Outback Mate and

[RE-wrenches] Amp hr meters

Hello wrenches, I am a "greenie" and am curious to know more about amp hr meters. I've gone on quite a few service calls on existing systems in the area, and I've never seen one on any of the systems around here. With that being said, I know on some of the new inverter/chargers incorporate these

Re: [RE-wrenches] Module Load Rating

Hi Jamie- Yes, it would certainly make sense for manufacturers to put forward the wind pressures in a consistent manner. Maybe the next SolarPro module roundup could include some of this info if someone has 100 hours to spend contacting someone knowledgeable at each module manufacturer... I
