this is the new testing panel for voc its a 60 cell mono from www.heliene.ca where I used to work...specs are there but I wont believe them cuz they made it up as they went there.....terrible place no frame or jbox on this one but easy fixes, but here are some pics....and more snow this morning....cmon......
right now plan is for 375 ah in 29's 3 battery bank a 400 watt inverter, for most things and 1500 there so I have it (went on sale at CT last weekend for 101 tax in. and 400 I bought at tsc about 6 mnths ago on sale for 29.99, I am cheap, half Italian..hahaha batteries from Walmart for $85 each....right now gonna be one 200-240 panel(I will know better after testing) with eco-worthy for...gulp...104, and maybe a second if I like it for other 60 cell panel....and today going to also play with 72 cell and connect to a battery run through those two circuits and measure amps to see what it is putting out like that...I am also going to test measure both circuits at same time to see what voltage drops to on each circuit....or will volts stay the same and amps be shared???
anyways some pics of inverters....we al like pics on the se forums
all the apparent specs of these panels are also on helien.ca...but all these should be less especially the mix and match 72 but you will notice I am getting more voc then either poly or mono panel is rated for in perfect operating conditions....and they wondered why the panels sometimes failed and caught fire....like I said before....idiots!!!
