hello Wrenches, We had a similar project this Spring: 2 - 75 watt, 12V modules (parallel) 1 - Morningstar SunSaver MPPT controller 1- DEKA GEL 12V, 73 Ah battery 1- aluminum enclosure 2 - of the following tubes http://www.lotusledlights.com/12-volt-led-tubes-p-70.html
Fused at battery and Load side of controller. Did not provide any other over-current or over-voltage protection (was not called for in tube installation instruction, pretty bare-bone). We had a tube fail after ~ 1 or 2 months, since then no problems. Most difficult part was trying to program the SS MPPT. Anyone have tips for doing that? thanks, tom Tom DeBates Habi-Tek 524 Summit St. Geneva,IL. 60134 630-262-8193 fax 630-262-1343
