Multiple Bonding of DC,& MPPT wind power [RE-wrenches]

My one cents worth: 

The RV products MPPTs can't  work if negative is bonded to ground before
the controller. Some Wind gennys including the Windseekers bond negative to
the mounting pole and thus to ground.
This is a problem with Polyphasor lightning protectors also, since they
bond negative to ground also.
Until I took a Polyphasor apart, I accidently had negative bonded to ground
at multiple points in some systems. Everyone should watch out for multiple
bonding when using wind gennys or Polyphasors. I'd use Polyphasor's single
pole unit, except I can't find anyone to wholesale me any. 

Peace my Solar Americano Brethren,
