[RE-wrenches] Need Sunny Webbox - Contact offlist

[Ray]

I'd add at least a small amount of DC coupled charging so that if the 
main AC trips off for any reason, the batteries will still get a charge. 
I've done a few SMA setups and having an heavy AC load or low battery 
situation shut down all battery charging is a serious problem with AC 
coupled setups.  Sorry I don't have a Webbox.
