Hello wrenches, I am a "greenie" and am curious to know more about amp hr meters. I've gone on quite a few service calls on existing systems in the area, and I've never seen one on any of the systems around here. With that being said, I know on some of the new inverter/chargers incorporate these in their devices, Apollo Inverters for example. My questions are:
1. Is the sole purpose to measure energy into and out of the batteries? 2. On modern inverters such as the XW, is the SOC meter on the control panel based on Amphrs or is it simply a voltmeter? 3. Does an Amphr meter need to be calibrated to older batteries to account for the increase in internal losses? If so, how? Thanks in advance. I really appreciate tapping into this amazing knowledge base. -- Mac Lewis * "Yo solo sé que no sé nada." -Sócrates *
