Sustainable SailingMade some actual progress today. My first 4 #mc4 #solar cable #crimps and my first 4 ferrule crimps.
All these boxes are bolted on. Got some different sized crimp lugs coming tomorrow for the #Renogy Rover boxes.
Should be able to get these connected to 6 solar panels tomorrow (unless we focus on the ac side of things which also needs doing on a dry day).

Eric HendricksonI take a look at the Victron SmartSolar MPPT charge controller and make some comparisons to the Renogy Rover. Spoiler alert: Victron nails it.

Oh wow. So the numbers weren't going up because that charge controller was a piece of trash. Apparently I plugged the Renogy back in. It's hitting numbers I've never seen before. It's not even hot. This is what it's supposed to do.
Run multiple #Renogy charge controllers linked together if you need more. Just don't buy anything else. You're going to catch on fire apparently. 👍

Also, I'm just going to stay with #Renogy from now on. Their charge controller does not catch fire. 10 out of 10 would apparently purchase again.
TheCivvieWell that was some storm last night. And there are masses of power cuts. And here I sit, doing the laundry on the solar system. This is why I don't go grid tied.

##Renogy is not the best but OK they are a ##dotcons so have lots of coupons and discounts https://renogycanada.refr.cc/default/u/hamish think this is 10% off, there should be more, it’s a one shop.
Could try a more “native” path of https://www.bimblesolar.com/ but not as simple, though good if doing the solar panels as well.
The batteries are simple: https://uk.renogy.com/core-12v-24v-48v-200ah-deep-cycle-lithium-iron-phosphate-battery This could be done in a quick simple solar only way, maybe using the current ##MPPT charge controller if it can be set for ##LiFePO4 or if the charge controller needs replacing we could try for a much more complex dual engine and solar path: https://uk.renogy.com/dcc50s-12v-50a-dc-dc-on-board-battery-charger-with-mppt-new-version I did try and implement this more complex path 2 years ago, and it did not work, but with 2 years of upgrades it likely works OK now.
Then is a simply wiring and testing process, a bit of time, am happy to assist for mate’s rates as it’s a good thing to document for ##DIY offgrid culture.
UPDATE:
##Bimble has come out with much cheaper batteries https://www.bimblesolar.com/batteries/12vbatts/Epever-12Vlifepo4-200Ah but no alternator engine charging path, so only the simple solar only path.
UPDATE:
The price of LiFePO4 has dropped so much that now it makes no sense to go for older technology need a new battery for my tender electric outboard, might try one of these https://aolithium.com/?ref=lifeboat anyone any experiences with the brand?
