Very good info smileypete...I think I will do it the safer way and not try to over think it.
Now I'm trying to decide if I want to go 24v or 12v...After looking at the price of inverters it's a hard choice.
I don't think I will have a cable issue using 00 cable, my longest run is only 50' and that's from the battery to the inverter or panel box to the charge controller haven't figured out what would be the better placement.
Dang the more I work on this the more work I have to do...
Thanks a ton for all the help and input guys now some of my work is done.
