Well, it was very hazy here today, but there was some power from the Canadian pair.
I saw the charger was running, so I tried Equalize, and it ran just fine..
It was up at 60.4v (15.1v each battery) and running a couple of amps at the start.
When I checked later, it was still at 60.4v but amps were at 0.5A ish..
After it was done, it went back to PWM charge mode.
I think this config is going to run just fine. My plan is to try using the full 400w
on sunny days (after the bank is charged fully) and not waste so
much juice on this old PC...
Now, I've got to figure out what I'm going to do with the other two Canadians.
Since the summer is coming, I just might put them in parallel with
the other two. (same voltage) And use the more that just the 400w PC load.
I could easily feed the downstairs freezer and dehumidifier this summer.
If the load jumps up over 800w, the batteries will pick up the slack.
And maybe even recharge a bit when the downstairs loads are idling.
My only worry is the higher current. Will the losses be killer?
I can't wait for some real sun to come along!
