Four months later and I'm happy

This works great. There's a learning curve to getting all the settings right, but once you've done that, forget it. With the exception of the air conditioners, I run my trailer constantly day and night with this unit, a 4kW lithium battery and eight 100W solar panels. I've learned two things that are important to me because I'm away from my camp most of the time and I leave food in the fridge. First, get rid of the bugs. It had been outside for a while and a bee flew in and roasted on the cooling fan leads. If one of the fans stops working, the system shuts down and does not restart. This is the only official thing that can happen if it doesn't restart. Lost ice cream and frozen pizza because of this tutorial. I removed the bee and it resets easily. Second, the additional generator must be an "inverter generator". The system is voltage sensitive. You wouldn't know it, but your old (or cheap new) non-inverter alternator will have voltage sags when a load is applied. This system will not use generator power if it falls below 90V and will not attempt to use the generator again until you reset it. I borrowed an inverter generator half the size of my generator and it worked great, starting the camper and charging the batteries while I used the air conditioning. Keep the manual handy; You will use it a lot! PS if you are interested in electricity, my air conditioner works with small things in the camper, but it has some problems when you try to plug in the air conditioner, microwave or washing machine. Maybe I'll upgrade next year because I'm spoiled, but I really don't need anything more.
