W00t. I've made a giant leap forward (for me) yesterday!
My day, yesterday.
I made my own power pole cables.
I made a set of cables with the wire connect ends.
1 hooked my charge controller up to my power supply via said power pole cable. (Power pole on one end and bare wire on the other).
I hooked my battery up to the charge controller with second set of cables.
I hooked the radio up to the charge controller and ran it.
Yeah, I know...small potatoes for you pros...but this was a big deal for me!
Now, I'm just waiting on my BatPac to show up and then I can run two batteries in parallel.
Next big task for me is to teach myself how to solder. That should be fun! Pretty sure my home owner's insurance is up to date!!!
