Absolutely great video 👍 Please could you also do a video to show how these panels perform/handle partial and complete cells shading conditions.

Does it always spark when connecting the second cable from the inverter to battery? is it dangerous if i don't have a resistor? will I get electrocuted?

@TheBreakingNewsHN Күн бұрын

Even though the battery is 100ah , that does not affect the charge controller? I am bit confused about matching the charge controller with the the battery amp hours. So if I purchase a 60 amp charge controller with a 100 amp hour battery, basically the Charge controller will only have an output of 60 amps. Is that correct? Thanks if you get to respond. Great video.

@BradCagle Күн бұрын

So you need to look at the charge specs for your battery. For example this battery can take a max charge current of 100a, however the recommended is 20a. While you could use a 60a controller, you may be punishing that battery. 20a charge controller for max life of the battery. However I don't mind pushing it a little with the 30a controller, personally I think it's fine. But again following the manufacture specs you would use a 20a controller with this battery. Hope that helps!

I have a 36 volt on my 12-volt system. Much better control. Use 1/2 amp. I like this if it last. You proved it works. BUT does it last? If so, I will put your idea to work. Solar trackers you are out of business.

@basilkey2949 Күн бұрын

Old video. How did the motor hold up wired like this? That what counts. That current has to go somewhere. Even a little. The motor could take it and last. Did the motor fell with time? No didoes or anything?

@simongagne8500 2 күн бұрын

Great video! Thought of doing something similar. Thanks for doing the grunt work. My Voltworks manual (same mfg) shows to install the DC terminals downwards. Not sure if that applies to the inverter you are using.

I placed an order for this 40a MPPT today, I’ve been stressed for a while trying to make sure I bought a decent quality controller….. Going to use it with four 625 cca deep cycle lead acid batteries (48v system) and a 2500w WZRelb 48v inverter similar to the one in this video….. I have 18 solar panels 100w each installed as a roof over an elevated walkway. I may run 3 banks of 6 in series if the voltage doesn’t read higher than 150v tested, if it does I go to 6 banks of 3 panels but getting close to the 40a limit if I do……Primarily, it’s to be a backup emergency system for me in eastern NC. I appreciate this video highly.

@BradCagle 3 күн бұрын

Make sure you have voltage open circuit under 150v by a decent percentage. You might measure under 150v right now, but the cold weather will make that rise. So in cold temps you could easily go over.

@medot8296 2 күн бұрын

@@BradCagle Hello Brad, wanted to ask what is the main purpose of those circuit breakers, do they just stop sending charge (snap) if it exceeds 150 volts, or do they start limiting flowing voltage when it is above i.e. 150 volts? Thanks.

I just installed one of these… it seems to go over my set voltage of 28 to 30-31 when the battery is charged this is too much voltage for my batteries and my inverter over alarm goes off and maybe even shut down. Any one else experience this

love the idea, but my area is prone to large gust of wind and it may not be a viable option because it would tip the scale. If you can build an idea that would hold the ends and bolted down to the floor then we can have something awesome.

uh hey Bud, you have way to much solar going in. !!!! read the bottom of the Renogy and max in is 400 watts

@BradCagle 7 күн бұрын

I understand that, the point of this was to push to the 30A limit of these controllers to see if they could handle it. Needed to push the input hard to make sure we got there. It's just a test, not a permanent setup. Thanks

I got one of these in the mail today. Caught it on sale for $499 at BestBuy. I'm laughing because on the videos, everyone just picks the device up and chucks it in the back of the truck like it's no problem to lift, but in reality, this thing is HEAVY AF!!! It weighs about 29 pounds! You'll not be picking it up and "tossing it" anywhere unless you are a STRONG MAN who lifts weights or something. If you need to move this anywhere, I suggest using a dolly.

Hi thanks for posting about these panels and showing how powerful they really are. I’m currently waiting for a shipment of these big boys. I’ve noticed these specs sheets can be wrong sometimes so I was wondering if you have the distance between the mounting holes. Thank you!

@adriftatlas 10 күн бұрын

They're like $150 each so 75 cents a watt. Rigid panels are 50 cents or less. They are lightweight at 6lb and might be useful to glue to a fence or something. They may perform great today, but what happens to them if left in the rain and heat? That's the main issue with buying these, nobody knows.
