Bought a spare propane cylinder....then the thought struck me....does propane go bad after a while, like gasoline does when it's been sitting for a long time?thx
Tested for this with each inverter clamped to battery bank in turn, 32" TV, and Trimetric for volts and amps.300w- off: 12.6v, 00.2aon: 12.6v, 00.5aTV on: 12.5v , 9.2a (climbing slowly with "inverter creep")2000w- off: 12.6v, 00.2aon: 12.6v, 00.9aTV...
Upgraded my panels and don't have a need for the older ones. (2) 130W Kyocera and (1) 140W Kyocera. The 130's are 2006... been sitting outside and are covered in dust, just stood one of them up and angled it towards the sun and got 20+V. The 140W is...
