More Solar for "Us"
Ok, I went off.the deep end? Bought 3 used 37watt uni-solar panels and a blue sky 2000e controller for the hefty price of $400, They were being listed as 75w panels, they are not The tested open...

Panel Amps 5.5
Output Amps 5.9, PowerMeter says 5.93 amps
Voltage 13.12
Mppt is working, is it at max conversion ? IDK
But doubling the numbers to 11 & 11.8 follows the "conversion efficiency" in Salvos post ( 10.0 & 10.7 )
10:30am
generator is on, converter is charging at 15.1 amps
solar input 5.8a BS output 7.0 amps voltage 14.64
total amps charge 22.1, voltstage at batteries 14.14 ,
just the slightest of bubbles now & then ( 20>30 seconds )
yeah we have out gassing ;)
getting my.morning bulk charge , so I can let the solar do the top off and hold the batteries up while powering the fridge during the day
I will keep a watch on the batteries
11:45am
generator OFF, NO CONVERTER charge , Solar only
panel amps 9.3
output amps 10.1
controller volts 14.64
voltage at batteries 13.81 no gassing observed
