This weekend we install the Victron Smart Solar MPPT 150-60 TR and wire up our 800w solar panels in series.
We also have a surprise visitor who will show you how we installed our cabinet door handles ;) This weekend was tough but we finally have our solar up and running and give you a run down on some on our solar setup yield for the first full day of running in November!
