roof rack for solar
Since I'm committed to 12 volt because of a pure sine wave inverter, if I upgrade I will go MPPT with the Magnum PT-100. That would allow me to install 1200 watts of solar. To do that would require a ...

Hi Cee,
If you are planing to replace the inverter then I'd strongly urge you to consider a 48 volt battery bank. If I were starting from scratch, I would certainly not do 12 volt.

PS: I'm looking (in the not too distant future) to change out my MS inverter for an MSH. You and I have a lot in common although I'll stay away from the resistance heating.
