So the guy from rvsolarstore.com said that I'll need a charge controller and temp sensor for the panels.
But the Magnum inverter also functions as a 100A charge controller and the battery monitoring kit includes a temp sensor. Does this mean that the inverter will only charge the batteries via the shore/gen pass-thru and not from a DC feed?
Because that would mean that when I'm plugged into shore power or charging from the generator, the panels would be charging the batteries at the same time. Is there any danger in charging the battery too quickly from two separate sources?
