I searched the forum, didn't find any thing relevant. I added a second turbine to my system and naively put an under sized diode. Which burnt and feed back, killing by battery bank. Was able to save two of the battery's, the other two were junk. Batteries are 8D commercial 12V.
Replaced the two bad ones. And was scared to restart the system without some kind of protection. First thing to come to mind was low voltage disconnects which disconnect anywhere from 10.8 to 11.2. But most if not all LVDs I see have over voltage protection. They will cut off at a certain voltage like 32-35v. I have seen my original turbine put out at much as 37-38 volts on a digital readout.
Is it dangerous to have this type of cut off at that high of voltage?
all questions, comments and suggestions are welcome.
