With no sun and no wind in the last several weeks, it is difficult to maintain battery charge without using a generator or grid power.

On one system, I only relied on the grid for 25% of my power. This month it's going to be more like 75%. We did get almost a full day of sun two days ago. I got both battery packs on float and did an equalization on the traction batteries.

We usually have a lot of sun in January and February. Solar production goes through the roof with a snow cover and low temps. I'm looking forward to it this year.
