[RE-wrenches] Voltage Regulator

[Ray Walters]

You could almost run a 22 v nominal system, if you used 2 v cells. 
Charge controllers like the FM60 and the Classic have enough adjustment 
in the bulk/ float settings to make it work, and that would be closer to 
the 20 - 28 v dc window you're looking for.  (20 v would be comparable 
to 10.9 on a 12 v system or complete discharge, while 28v would be 15.3 
v on a 12v system, plenty of room to EQ)
However there are a lot of comm systems that have been running off grid 
for decades, so I really think you just need to take another look at the 
required specs. Solar Converters in Canada make a voltage regulator that 
will stabilize a battery voltage, as well as up and down DC to DC 
converters.
Also, I'm up in Denver, and don't mind driving (buy my gas) if you ever 
need any help.
