    Instant Water Heater to make preheated water hotter

    Is there a recommended instant water heater that won't burn up if we give it 100F+ temps on input when the primary system don't keep up? Preferably propane, as we'd like the system to run without power on house batteries w/o having to start up the generator. Grey box center-left, after a...

    Used Neo Solar 335W solar panels - pros/cons/opinions?

    I am looking at those panels as well.. as you can't find much for $100 for a 300W+ panel these days (was easier few years ago!).. 335-340 is right where I need them. per wikipedia.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neo_Solar_Power My concern is Surplus panels with no mfg warranty. They do...

    Recommend a PV disconnect breaker for 350V+

    These are the specs of REC310PE72. I believe the answer is 9.02 I'd prefer an automatic breaker as apparently I seem to not think ahead and create shorts occasionally.. I probably should just stick working with those things at nights. But I can't seem to let those Solar Watts go to waste...

    Recommend a PV disconnect breaker for 350V+

    I have 4 strings of REC Peak Energy 72 Cell going into Sol-Ark 8k. The voltage of each panel is 45V, so string of 8 is in the vicinity of 360VDC, give or take (mostly take). I have MidNite Solar box I never installed, but apparently that only goes up to 300VDC. I'd like something in between...
