You do a great job sir I've seen your other video you put up very informative
Thanks for your comment.
Hello Mr. SHOESTRING,
Thank you for the video, I really appreciate all the info.
You're welcome. Thanks for your comment.
I would advise replacing those clips with a bolt and nut, it will maintain a better connection.
You are correct that would make a better connection. Thanks for your comment.
Sweet and simple! Thanks for sharing.

Welcome, new subscriber! Thanks for your comment.
Nice tour of the system.
Thanks for your comment.
I've been using that charge controller on a 180 watt solar panel for 2 years it's held up good!
That is good to know. Thanks for your comment.
Thank You 🙏
Welcome.
Nice! I have an almost identical setup. I want to upgrade to a lithium iron phosphate battery for my next one and install it into my overland rig.
A lithium battery will improve your storage capacity. Thanks for your comment.
If mounting ,drill out using a 3/8 drill bit and a 5/16 bolt fits in perfectly to anything.
Thanks for the tip and the comment.
Will it run a 60 watt electric cooler
I couldn't see how you attached the ring ends to the battery. Did you just hold them against the batt posts and clip them?
I used alligator clips to connect the regulator to the battery
Thanks for your comment.
Do the load wires need to be tied together or separate
I like to keep the wires taped together. Thanks for your comment.
Can a sealed lead acid battery be used indoors and does it have to remain in an upright position?
These batteries are safe to be used indoors. I don't know about turning them on their sides I've never tried. Thanks for your comment.
Nice one.
People should check out breakers for a battery if they can get them cheap they can get a few... Power will last longer.
Thanks for the tip and comment.
How do breakers make power last longer?

Will it run a 60 watt electric cooler ?
Yes, as long as your cooler can run with a modified sine wave. Thanks for your comment.
WONDERING IF YOU COULD GIVE ME SOME ADVICE ON MY CURRENT SOLAR SETUP,,INHERITAED WHEN I BOUGHT PROPERTY,,,,ITS A MESS,,BOUGHT 4 NEW POWER QUEENS,,,NEED SOME HELP SO I DONT DESTOY THESE NEW BATTERIES
What type of system do you have and what is the mess?
THE ORIGINAL OWNER JERRY RIGGED EVERYTHING,,,WIRE NUTS TYING ALL THE PANELS TOGETHER,EXTENSION CORDS ,,ETC....JUST LOOKING ONLINE FOR ANY GOOOOOOOD ADVICE ON WHAT TO DO
Computers, electronics, switcher-type wall wart phone chargers aren't going to like the modified sine wave power coming out of that inverter. Just saying.
Are there cheaper true sine wave inverters in the 300-400 watt range that don't cost an arm and a leg? Maybe a Chinese model?
I charge my phone with it. Thanks for the tip and your comment.
You are correct. Most don't realize the damage they can do. This a very good inverter for the money. I own one and it works great for a lot of things. You can find it on Amazon pretty cheap. Definitely worth the few extra bucks. BESTEK 500W Pure Sine Wave Power Inverter.
