Its a cloudy day, maybe the first one in months. That’s ok. Made up my own cable with some bulk 10 AWG two conductor wire and connectors. I thought the connectors wouldn’t require crimping, but they do. And you probably need a proper crimping tool to do it right. After botching my first few tries I decided to solder the connectors. My soldering skills aren’t great but these connectors should do.
Put the panels out on the deck, connected the battery and the panels, flipped the switch for the panels and checked the Victron app. A few amps going in to charge the battery. Plugged in the utility light into the inverter as a load and watched the current go negative. It’s a shady day so not getting much out of the panels. But a few tens of watts. Can’t wait to see how they do in bright sun.
i would say if I had it to do over I would buy cables with connectors. Now to figure out how to mount the panels.
