    Swing up solar panel mounting

    Roof space is all used up and I need just a bit more wattage. My thought is to have another panel that swings up awning style that can be deployed at camp.

    Victron Energy: Alternator/Solar Charging - LFP Battery System

    A question about Syncronization for the Victron / LFP crowd. Of course the manuals say sycronize when the battery is full and amperage is below 4% Do it when the it hits 14.xx? Do it when it is at 13.6? Do it when it just drops back to 13.3? Its below 4% in all those conditions Thanks
