You might also consider adding two additional battery chargers like the Iota's to balance the phases. Christopher, what do you think about this w/an Outback inverter? In my experience w/older Trace products this tactic was frustrating as the auxilary chargers "fool" the inverter charger and as a result the inverter charge rate drops by about 80% of what the Iota puts out. I would see maybe 100A out of the Trace and add 75A from the charger and then see a total of about 110A. Alone they would each make full output. In the end you gained little for the expense. This may not be an issue anymore as I've not added additional chargers to a system in a very long time as the newer inverters do such a good job. good luck, -jeff o >From the Solar, Wind and Hydro powered office of Jeff Oldham ________________________________________________________________________ Try Juno Platinum for Free!
