@TCM Found this in another forum.

I ended up getting the Victron SmartSolar MPPT 100/15 (100v/15A) Solar Charge Controller and I have a Optima Yellowtop D35 battery. Where can I get the following information for my battery? Absorption Voltage - Float voltage - Maybe 13.2 to 13.8 volts, one amp maximum current, time...

I second the Volcano Grill. When I first got mine I didn't like it that much. I thought it was too heavy and had too many parts, so I would really mistreat it in hopes that it would break. Seven years later this thing still works

Ohhhh man, no wonder there are no writeup on this. So I can just go straight to my Bluesea fuseblock since I do have space available and I ran an extra cable. Would 10 Gauge Ga cable be okay from the solar charger to the battery? I'm still doing my homework on this, but if I were to go with...

I’ve noticed my frig turns itself off after shorter trips since the battery can’t get a good full charge. I want to add a solar panel, and it’s required equipment, but how do I connect it based on the diagram above? MJ

First thank you guys guys/gals for you helpful input. I almost forgot to come back and report how everything went. Well, I completed the install and wiring this past Sunday (May 13, 2018) and it went completely smooth with one small hiccup (another story and another day). Images can be seen...

Thank you guys/gals so much. I think I have what I needed. I will post, once I get home from work, one more question. It’s really a quick diagram I’m going to follow. I want to make sure I’m doing everything correctly. Edit: I apologize for the crude diagram. This is how I'm thinking of wiring...

Another novice question for you guys/gals. Do these two setups do the same thing? If so, why the huge price difference? Blue Sea Systems ST Blade ATO/ATC Fuse Blocks with Blue Sea Systems 285-Series Panel Mount 100A Circuit Breaker...

I'm still debating whether or not I truly need a single or dual batteries. So I kind of want to start off with a single, with the option to move to dual batteries. My research has lead me to the Blue Sea products, but this has also raised additional questions. From the main battery, it's my...

Congratulations

That was humble and respectful, I wish there was a "like" button I could click for this response. MJ Edit: Quick questions that I'm sure have ben answered 1000 times, but I noticed at the Fuel the Vets event at Toyota of Huntington Beach and you were busy: - Are the legs interchangeable with...

Thank you for sharing. Awesome video, please keep them coming. MJ

I concur on just about everything, but change Android Samsung Galaxy S5 to iPhone and iPad. I'm really impressed with the Gaia application and their support team, they even responded to me on Saturday which completely caught me off guard. MJ

I started creating a route on https://cloud.hemaexplorer.com, stopped for a quick break and to confirm some information. Now I'm ready to continue, but I can't find a way to edit an existing route. Is there a way to edit a route?
