I am going to install a solar panel with charge controller but with 2 battery banks, it seems I have to use a duo controller so I feed each bank separately. If I hook a single controller downstream of the selector switch, the switch would have to always be in the both position, which is not desirable. What say you all? The price difference between a single and a duo is $45 vs $169. Gordon After a ton of research, I've come to the conclusion that solar on a sailboat is nearly worthless unless you can mount huge arrays pointing all different directions with multiple controllers. That said, the new tech stuff coming down the road may prove somewhat effective. Gordon |
