Is there a way to put a DPDT disconnect switch in line with the panels and the batteries so when you throw the battery disconnect, it also cuts the electricity coming from the panels as well?
I wonder if it is just Morningstar or all solar charge controllers that may take damage if the batteries are disconnected before the solar panels get cut. If this is the case, for my next solar project, I might put the connection to the CC between the switch and the batteries so the batteries get isolated when in storage, but the CC wouldn't get fried.
