<p class="MsoNormal">What voltage ranges do you mean? This is AC coupled, so it will rely on a third party solar inverter for the Solar generation side of things. If you mean AC voltage tolerance, I’d assume it gets wider when “off grid” like Outback. The specs
and manuals don’t say. Would be worth asking Franklin unless another Wrench has gotten this already?<o:p></o:p></p>
