2. have extra solar capacity, but that presupposes a way to deal with "waste power" which is why I'd prefer to have the ability to do diversion loads.
SMK has a magnificent solar farm, hence he can safely leave his generator at home.
I haven't heard of the need in diversion loads with solar systems. You probably mean the excessive amps at peak of solar production that are clipped off by controller at the output limit. Yes, there is a theory that this isn't good for MPPT controller :)
As I recall, SMK has 60A controller and 750A solar. Not enough to exceed the amps limit at sea level.
