Hi All,
Does anyone have any leads on a replacement for a SunnyBoy 2500. Ideally
it would be a direct replacement, but another 120 vAC inverter would be
possible as well.
Thanks,

Not surprising given their pricing structure. If this is true, I assume
their 15 year warranty is the equivalent of vaporware. And I'm glad I only

Andrew,
As long as you have proper over current and wire sizing, there shouldn't be
a problem with paralleling C60s. Of course, keeping the batteries at 12v
for a 2kw array makes everything else bigger and more expensive. And they
won't get the MPPT advantages of even 20 year old charge controller
then. Easier maintenance and operation for the client, less headache for
you. I've definitely gravitated toward the KISS concept of the years, for
both my and my clients' sanity...
