I do not own any HF solar equipment. I do own various strippers and crimpers. Some people don't like to strip and crimp. What specifically would they "Search the forums" for? "Cheap introduction to solar"?
Here is a typical quote from the provided link:
"Recharging may take a great deal of time. The reason is the charge acceptance rate. Typically, a flooded battery may accept only about 12.5 amps per 100 amp-hours when it reaches 85% of fully charged. According to Battery University, it may take up to 168 hours to get to 100% state of charge. Clearly that is something to avoid when running a generator, but remember–solar is a “free lunch”!"
This does not intimidate me, but a new person might be scared off.
