The string voltage is a sum of all the panel voltages, so you could bring the string voltage down by using a lower voltage panel, but...

His MPPT input has a maximum of 250V input. #DangerWillRobinson.

And it would only slightly fail. Do not do this.

I kinda like the wings so I just leave them on... :ROFLMAO:

I’ve asked this a few times lately and there doesn’t seem to be any way to limit the charge current.

One interesting observation so far. Today I've noticed some of this usual small LED light "blips" which happens when large loads...

It’s a learning experience, nobody here picked it up in the first hour. Do it yourself also means do it your own way, there’s no right...

Congrats!

Indeed, SOC is a better indicator of ‘wasted’ (potential) power though IMHO you are chasing a chimera if your goal is to use every...

If your old combiner box is only rated for 250 V, then it sounds like it’s not appropriate for the original use, much less for adding...

Are you asking SignatureSolarJess or EG4Jess? 😁

There’s a whole spectrum of do it yourself from designing your own circuit boards to paying someone for a turnkey install. There’s room...

Edit* Eg4 and Renewable Home Solutions have decide to put the relationship on hold. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to...

And in the other thread, they admit that there are circumstances which can cause properly polarized panel strings to blow up your...

I see you just discovered what the concept of shopping around is. Welcome to being a functioning adult. You went on a tirade about...

Locked thread.

For terminals that are going to be bolted, you are not wrong, but for direct-to-PCB as SparkyJJO pointed out, it's more difficult to...

PCBs don't crimp well, the fiberglass isn't very happy when you do that ;)

Why not solder the bigger wire directly to the board?

You should have asked Signature Solar if they were an approved vendor.
