[QUOTE="Ridge Runner, post: 507228, member: 3775"] That's impressive Charging times running all that lot, I might have to change my batteries for AGM's FLA DC's are just too slow at excepting the charge, But to achieve the same rate of charging I would have to run about 4-500w of panels to equal what your 200w are doing, I spoke to the solar Man last week and he reckons that 4 X 140's would be more than enough to do the job, My MPPT is the Victron 100/20, kind of wish I had bought the 150/50 version or bigger but my game plan changed after I bought it So if I want to get more panels means a bigger controller. Those Energizer AA Lithiums hold about 1.82v each straight out of the pack and they work wonders for the TDI SL allowing it to run for a good 24 hours, Where as the normal ones last for about 4 to 6 hours.
