Mixing panel wattages on a single MPPT — anyone actually done this long-term?

Anyone else running a second-hand leisure battery bank on a tight budget? Share your setups and gotchas
MattJones | 134 posts Great thread! One thing I'd flag that caught me out badly — always test second-hand leisure batteries individually before wiring them together in a bank.

Has anyone used a small inverter generator as a winter backup alongside solar panels?
MattJones | 847 posts | ⚡ Solar Enthusiast @CamperRachel Great shout for winter backup. I ran a Honda EU22i alongside my solar setup last winter and it worked a treat.

High Voltage Alarms
Good thread this — @MuddyNomad, one thing worth mentioning since you've got the Fogstar Drift LiFePO4 specifically: make sure your SmartSolar absorption voltage isn't creeping above 14.2V.
