Been sitting in the garage for about a year. Grabbed it to use today and it stalled my Yamaha 2000 generator in eco mode. So switched to full throttle and it took it but was not happy. The charger was buzzing and did not make any attempt at charging. Built in fuse 30A was still good and the 15A...

Same seller on ebay has the Outback Flexmax 60 and 80 for a great price. About $100 less than normal. Says brand new.

These days, mod sine inverters get a bad rep. What is a good use of your old mod sine inverter laying around? Several manufacturers still make them and alot of inverter generators are mod sine without people even realizing it. Is THD more important than just the squared off sine wave I assume?

Does anyone have a way to neatly organize all the cables running to a cerbo? The touch 50 has a 10ft cord but it will be mounted right next to the multi, so i already have that coiled up. All the VE direct cables are fixed lenght to some degree. Im thinking about a box just for all the excess...

If running the PV wire in conduit, how is everyone making a code compliant transition to a Victron charge controller (or any other controller) that doesn't have knockouts, just terminals on the outside? Seems like you will always be left with "exposed wires"?? Pictures?

Is anyone using a Brat PWM that can comment on the performance or efficiency? I have heard stories about efficiency only being 60% for PWM but that is just generic pwm stuff. Is there any data or tests on this unit in particular.

Curious if anyone has experience with these or knows about the quality of them.

Alright im old school here. I usually turn customers towards the "original" inverter companies like Schneider, Outback, Magnum and Victron. Heck im even an Aims dealer because I have found them to be reliable and affordable. In Michigan, im "lead acid" battery all the way. The idea that a BMS...

I have a Greenlee 1981 manual crimper, its very simple, but its the indent style. It also requires fine tuning as the adjuster turns. What is everyone else using? If i want to upgrade it looks very expensive. Is there a decent alternative for crimping large cables?

Anyone have one of the new Northstar generators?? Looks like they are moving away from honda engines and have their own northstar branded fuel injection version. Advertised fuel consumption seems good for the wattage ratings.

Anyone use " the battery dude" ? They are advertising free shipping on their Full River L16s. That price its a pretty good deal for getting large batteries to your house. Ive heard good things about Full River sealed batteries. They even have bulk discounts if you buy more than a couple. Its...
