Metering your battery bank while being charged may result in an inaccurate reading. It is best to meter your bank while in a state of rest (e.g. at night).
No, the MNSTOPSWITCH is a manual switch. You can, however, set up the auxiliary function of a MidNite Solar Classic Charge Controller to flip a switch when the battery bank reaches a preset voltage.
No, you cannot sync a newer model Schneider Electric Conext SW inverter with an older model Xantrex Trace SW inverter. Your options would be to 1) upgrade the older Trace SW to a newer Conext SW or 2)
The clipper as the name implies clips the voltage and protects the charge controller. It also serves as the dump load, but instead of bleeding power off of the battery or battery bank, it prevents ene
No, you cannot run wind and solar simultaneously through a single Morningstar TriStar MPPT Charge Controller (this is possible with a TriStar PWM Charge Controller), however, you may simultaneously ch
The ohms resistance depends on the wind turbine you're using and such factors as:
1) open circuit voltage
2) wattage
3) whether the turbine is 3-phase, wild AC, or DC
Yes. Any of MidNite Solar's circuit breakers ending in "RT" for remote trip is a shunt trip breaker. These remote trip, or shunt trip circuit breakers have an external attachment at the rear of the br
The bolt you choose is a matter of preference. Some installers prefer the permanence of the square bolt because they can only be installed or removed at the end of a rail. Others prefer the flexibilit
You should select the same size IronRidge Stopper Sleeve as your solar panel. For example, if you have a 46mm tall solar panel, you would select the 46mm size stopper sleeve.
The backside has an adhesive so that you can stick the sensor to the side of a battery. It does not have a lug to attach to a terminal. It is recommended that you attach to the warmest battery.
