Kirk,
I just went through this on planning 3 different jobs under the same
circumstances, wanting to series 3 panels in my case the voltage went to 127
but after the calculation it came up to around 155 volts. With the long wire
runs there was a sizeable wire difference.
The short answer came from Outback, that I should move to hawaii and hook up
3 in series there, not here. I think that the protection circuit is best
used as just that. Don't use it as a safety valve, just in case.

Outback Chris & group,
I'd like to use the SANYO 190 watt modules in a particular installation.
They are rated at 67.5 VOC (54.8 vmppt). The MX60 will accept up to 140
VOC, so I could wire up pairs in series and obtain 135 VOC. But in these
parts we have to design for -20 degree or greater winter mornings. That
means an up to 25% increase in VOC, or 169 VOC. Chris, is this too high
for the MX60 to handle on the occasional (or sustained) cold winter day?

Allan,
I have friends with both. Directway is no problem, Starband seems to be
a
problem.
Every message my friend with Starband sends me gets picked up by my
ISP's
virus trap.
They (Starband) have been of no help. If he takes the same computer and
sends me a message from another location it comes in fine. There is
nothing
on his computer.
This has got me ready to go to Directway, I wouldn't go with Starband
after
this experience.
The cost still scares me.....

Wrenches,
I would appreciate suggestions, experiences, preferences, etc. comparing
Starband and Direcway satellite internet providers and hardware, as we
prepare to purchase a system for our offgrid home. Thanks in advance.
