    Automatic Solar Powered Car Charger Overflow Dump

    I put together a very small MPP HV/LV2424 2400 Watt inverter, on 1300 watts of panels, which powers most 120v devices in house all day/night (fans/refrig/lights/computers) and often found my 4.3kwh lithiums filling up with my average 500 watt home load on sunny days. This simple script turns...
