i've been working on getting my system set up.
i started out with a 12v 2400w inverter. with 6; 12v agm batt's.
i used a 5hp gas engine to power a car alt.,then
i upgrated to a 3600 24v trace inverter and a fork truck batt.,
charging the large batt. with a hugh piggot 10' genny, and that 5hp engine powering a 24v alt., a 6hp lister powering an 24v alt. also.
seeing the lister was a lot better than the 5hp gas engine , i no longer use the gas charger.
i then bought 1000w worth of solar panels. whow they really kick.
ok, here is where i'm learing. i thought you needed a charge controler for the solar panels. [which you do if unattended].
also a dump load for the wind genny.[which you should have if you like your batt's and wind genny].
thinking about this you can't have both hooked at the same time.or you uill never keep the voltage up enough to equalize.
i have two c60 trace controlers. one set up for charge control, and the other for dump load.
ok how should i operate this system? also do i have my controlers set right? and last is my dump load [the bank of resistors] right for the job? [wiring suggestings?]
hereare some pictures to help explain things.
