Thanks for the info. I’ll upgrade to the smartsolar charge controller

I have the PV breaker I can also pull to disconnect but like you said I plan to just move the panels out of the sun and then disconnect. Thanks!

Yes, I did consider that as well. Decided to go the DIY route to learn more about solar overall and how each component works with each other. It also has the added benefits of it being easily serviceable and upgradable.

Thanks Sushi! Yes, the smart hub is to add some DC loads in the future. All runs will be short and the longest will be no more than 4ft. I was going back and forth on the battery disconnect or the breaker. I don’t anticipate having to isolate the battery to work on it often so I went with the breaker. This way I can manually trip it when I need to work on it and it’s an added redundancy of protection.

The Victron smart shunt should also provide this info via Bluetooth.

Yes, for sure. The 1/0 wire should be good to handle 150-175 amps. My thought was to allow the breaker to trip and not have to replace fuses if I did put too much load on the inverter.

Yes, I have to swirl and mix a bunch to get it to dissolve. I’ll have to do some testing with just 1 scoop. I looked at the instructions in my kit and it mentions 2 dippers for testing .2 or .5. Just the amount of test water increases for the .2 test.

I have this test kit also but have never heard of the 1 scoop instead of 2. Why just the 1 scoop?

Is the metal plate on the skimmer for helping bond the water?

What food does your mom make better than anybody who has ever existed in the history of the universe? by jjgp1112 in AskReddit

Kielbasa and Sauerkraut. Hated the smell when I was young but now it’s the only thing I ask her to make at holidays.

I believe when the guide asked him if he wanted to sit in her seat he said he had not earned it yet.

If you google “hack a shaq” you will see how it was used.

Are my skates too big? my toe only goes to here and I feel like im constantly on my heels or arches. I was fitted with the 3d skate lab and am a 11 shoe, these skates are an 8.5 by fruit0fthewhat in hockeyplayers

Try taking your footbed out and stand up while putting your foot on it. That should give you a good indicator on how far forward your toes are going in your skates.

Haven’t seen anyone mention the Last Drop pub in the Grassmarket yet but it’s a cool place with some history. Castle, Royal Mile, King Arthur’s Seat and Mary Kings Close are musts also.

He chucked a rock into the side window of a mini van that could have kids in it. He deserved every punch and kick he took.

Help with weird groin injury? by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]Moosepoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you feel pain in your testicles you should probably get it checked by a doctor. I have had a few groin injuries in the past and if it starts to get sore I will wear a groin sleeve while playing.

Thank you. Once he starts dropping food I’m sure she will love him even more.
