Since the GP stepped back, the WFCO provided the higher voltage to the circuit (14.4 for a standard WFCO) and dominated the charge. The GP saw this reduction in electron flow and switched down to float mode (13.5 V).
I learned yesterday my WFCO and many others do not go into 14.4v mode at say 75% discharge. (I realize my batts were fully charged)
I have a separate voltage display coming off the converter, and I'm positive the WFCO was at 13.5v and stayed at 13.5v the entire time I was messing around. I was comparing both the solar and converter voltage displays and then going outside and using the clamp meter to view amps.
I was curious how the wfco would act. I'm trying to learn that stupid thing. I didn't expect to see the flow of power go backwards on the solar. From the replies it seems this is not a melting danger. Would hate to damage anything.
