[RE-wrenches] Parallel Homegrid Stack'd Busbar

[Jason Szumlanski]

It looks like the Lynx Power In (without fuses like the Distributor) would
work in my application. In fact, it appears it can be accomplished with a
single unit, making it a pretty sleek and cost-effective solution.

I'll look into that and let you know what direction I went once it's all
installed. Thanks, all.
