I am trying to avoid all the hardware.  The one i mentioned seems to be working for him. He seemingly has connected the output from the Solar Panels directly to the element in the Water Heater. He shows a chart he's worked out on how to select the  Heater Element with the correct ohms to suit. Like i said I've emailed him to ask If Its still working without problems. But received no reply. As I've explained and you probably know It's the arcing Is the problem. That's why you need a unit like you've shown.  Beginning to look like I'll  have to use the control unit you've shown. J.S.
