What have people been up to?
- Chewie: Adding a new solar charge controller to his setup (Morningstar TriStar TS-MPPT-60).
- Setup will not be grid-tied, but connected with a atomatic transfer switch (Tripplite 7.4kW, like this one (the newer version on the tripplite website). ~10ms to switch over when batteries are drained, should be good enough
- Severin: Working on a DIY solar charge controller (project on hackaday.io) and a MicroGrid connection unit (GitHub Repo)
- Uli: Working on his solar setup, it's not connected yet. Unsure about what to do with the energy, as he doesn't want to tap into the "regular" grid
- Nico: Setting up the solar system in his camper.
