Solar Panel L Brackets
Saw THESE on ebay. I'm going to get two 150W panels from Solarblvd. Should I wait till I get the panels or will these do? Thanks. Panel http://www.solarblvd.com/Solar-Panels-&-Systems-12-Volt-Sol...

Hi mena,
I was speaking of power dissipation at the controller.
There would be better heat tolerance on the roof if the panels have room for air to flow under them.
Here is an english video of the solar 30 solar 30 English
The solar 30 does do temperature compensation--but at the controller--not at the actual battery. Since the controller should not be in the battery bay--it may not be too successful at temperature compensation. There needs to be a probe that fastens to either a battery post--or sticks on the side of the battery. I'd prefer the battery post method as it has a better chance of knowing the internal temperature of the battery bank.

Hi mena,
Power dissipation is not going to be a problem with 300 watts of panels.
