Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hi Davo99,

I have 2 U tube vids up, the first is my eldest boy going all arty farty crafty.

The second is me being pushed by said eldest boy to do a tech discussion for his mates at Uni, when in truth i was really knackered after a long day.

So hence me talking about amperage instead of the main cable feeds being a minimum of 50mm/2.

Now that second U tub vid even sends me to sleep. hahaha.

Does anyone have any suggestions for how to charge 48v Other than from solar. IE, with an engine?


I use a cheap chinese 1kva generator with a cheap chinese battery charger for the required voltages.

I've never actually had to depend on it, but I do run/test it every couple of months, It's good for about 500-600 net watts from a charger.
