675w Solar Installed w/Pictures
Photobucket no longer allows a link but the RV.net link through Imgur works great
Some wanted to see these bad boys once completed so here you go.
3x Phono Solar 225w panels. These are 24v panel wired in series. Just a simple strain relief to send the power down. No combiner box or extra connections.
Picture of the rack mount system. No provision was made to tilt the panels.
Here is the Morningstar MPPT 60 that converts the ~120vdc from the panels to the 12v needed to charge the battery. To the right is a high voltage switch to cut power from the panels. Inside the box are some Edison base 10a fuses. This switch is not DC rated and is in process to be replaced. Probably with Schneider H221N switch.
Everyone seems to like a battery picture.
And for all you techies, a pic of my battery monitor.
Any comments or red flags to address please let me know.
Primary equipment was just under $1,500 Probably $250 more to complete the install.
Panels, controller and wire bought here: www.solarblvd.com
