wa7yxm,
No need to go to 13.6. They do sell inverters, too.
I understand this but if I have to change voltage which is better
Get the input voltage close enough that an MPPT charge controller can convert it to the required voltage by swapping volts for amps with around 90% effiency... OR.
Invert it to 120vac (About 90% efficient) and then convert it to battery charge voltage (which at best is 90% eficient)
I am a strong believer in KISS and the one step is both Simpler and More Effiecent.
Of course they may make an MMPT that ccan take 200 volts down to 12 or all I know.
