Great Question – I am limited on space so I will try to answer your
question the best I can . You can also call us anytime. For a standard PWM
controller you will have to set it at the 12V / 24V or 48V settings. You
will need to match your battery bank to the voltage. You will need a MPPT
charge controller if you want to step down voltages to a lower level. If
you are using 2 volt batteries you will need 6 of them for a 12 volt
system, 12 of them for a 24v system and 24 of them for a 48v sy

So….If your wind PMA puts out 12/24 or 24/28 volts, what’s the minimum
number of 6 or 2 volt batteries required to start setting up battery
storage, and how do you step down the voltage to charge the batteries ?
Thanks

Tons of great info on batteries.
Awesome video Christopher. Torklift PowerArmor Solar is an awesome battery
box, we’ve had the pleasure of playing with one first hand. The Zamp Solar
panel on the Torklift PowerArmor Solar looks great. Wish you were using a
Zamp system for your solar install.
Very informative, looking forward to your solar install.

Hello All… I misspoke… the Torklift PowerArmor Solar has a 10 Watt
panel, not a 10 Amp panel. Sorry we missed that slip of the tongue!

The best battery for an RV is not a flooded battery. It is a drop in
lithium replacement. But is very pricey and out of range for most people.

Good info, but that background music is annoying and distracting

Would the black box produce more heat inside to damage the battery or is it
a vented
box?
