Any sign of escaped smoke? I had a Classic 150 go south this winter but the client lives in the house and caught it immediately. No visible damage on it the screen was blank.
The replacement was a used/refurbished unit with blackened inside front cover; client was not too happy and caught a verbal bashing for complaining from Midnite. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dana Orzel Great Solar Works, Inc - NABCEP # 051112-136 E - d...@solarwork.com - Web - solarwork.com O - 970.626.5253 C - 208.721.7003 "Responsible Technologies for Responsible People since 1988" P Please consider the environment before printing this email.

I returned to a off grid site today after having no winter access. It appears as though the classic 150 charge controller has failed. The batteries are completely discharged. The classics screen will flash occasionally as well as a yellow light on this left front of the controller but wont turn on. Does the classic have a minimum voltage requirement needed to turn on? Has anyone else experienced this? I can't figure out what happened to cause this issue.
