Correction: it is number 6 to the charge control, and 3/0 or 4/0 to the
batteries.<br><br>

It looks like 3/0 or 4/0. It is a short run. <br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">I have seen this on my last 3
MX60 controllers and it is very frustrating and looks to be a design
flaw. I can calibrate the meters to be accurate at either the Absorb
point OR the Float point but NOT both!! Not only that but the meter
calibrations tend to drift a bit in just a matter of days, just .1V not a
big deal but anymore than that on a 12V sealed battery and it could be an
issue. I spoke w/Outback about this and heard a mumbled "Ahh, uummm,
yeah that is an issue". I'm guessing that you're seeing the same
thing and when you spoke w/your customer again and the meters all agreed
I'll bet it is because the MX was at the "line up point" of the
other meters (just like a broken clock being correct twice a day!). The
only way to live with this is to get the more important Absorb set point
right on and take what you get on the lower end. It works and is usable
but drives customers nuts when they have additional meters. In my
experience the Tri-mets are dead on.</blockquote><br>
Jeff, what size wire from charge controller to the battery are you using
?? The bigger the wire, the less the<br>
I*R drop and the less the voltage discrepancy ~should~ be, at
higher currents.<br><br>
