I am pretty new around here, and actually did not know you had a "basement" or "porta potty" section till a little bit ago. It took me a while to take a look down here as I was sure just where the lean would be. I was fairly sure if I came down here, I would be off to band camp fairly...

Not really "solar" I just needed to rant for a sec. I am in process of setting up an on demand water heater for my shop, requires 30a. Ok fine....oops not fine I don't have any 10-2 so off to Home Depot I go for a breaker and roughly 100ft of wire. First find the breaker, ok $20 not too bad...

I think I define noob here, I have done a little looking but just not sure. On my setup, and it really is more playing then a "real use" deal. I have one "hybrid" controller that does wind and solar, and it works real well. I also have some charge controllers that are for lead acid only...

I have one of these things in my shop, and it actually works quite well.....save one issue. I have a small 12V battery, Not this one but one of the same size as well as a lead acid "lawn mower" battery. The diesel heater will work just fine off of these batteries no issue at all. The diesel...
