Hello to all members and many thanks for allowing me to join your forum.
Solar is new to me and have just been playing with it for a few month now, i live on the west coat of Scotland UK so the sun can be a little hard to find some days, my partner and i rent a farm house out in the countryside and have been hear for the last 10 year or so, i bought an LG 300 watt panel to start with and a PWM charge controller but after reading about MPPT bought one of these and wow what a difference, my battery bank is 540 AH but is mixed flooded, sealed and AGM which i know is not a good idea so will be changing this in time. i'd also like to add a turbine and i have a small stream runs down the back of the house which i've started to build a water wheel for, i dont expect to much from it but it's an interesting project.
I hit my first problem the other night after installing some DC lights which brought me to the forum so will post my problem up and maybe someone will can help.
Take care
john
