Windy Dankoff had an electric forklift at his old Santa Fe shop, that
they charged with a Trace SW4024, I believe.

Peter,
Is this for use outside on terrain (like at a job site getting supplies to a
roof) or inside on a concrete floor? It makes a difference on the tires and
suspension as well as the rating.

I have done this with great success also using the Magnum and a Grid Tie wind
turbine in place of the solar. once battery bank is full the AE would cause the
turbines GT inverter to shutdown because of a UL 1741 setting. Of course a
better solution would be to use a dump load.

Eric,
We have had excellent results doing these with Sunny Boys and Sunny
Islands. It is more pricey but if you have a high end customer and
want a a reliable, trouble free (?) system, we have had no wrinkles or
call backs with this approach. We have inverted at the array in the
past and
We are looking for a battery-powered fork lift: total vertical lift 22' and
load (typically on pallets) 350 to 700 lbs. We will of course need a solar
powered charging station, but that can be designed once we have a good fork
lift identified.
Has anyone actually purchased a battery-powered forkl
Hi Eric,
Look at your design parameters. There is no reason you can't run DC
250'. You are better with some small amount of DC loss than with AC
loss, particularly if you intend to sell back to the utility. Use a
Classic 250 or 200 or Apollo Solar's T80HV. You can configure your
panel series str
I agree with Ray. The best ground clamp I have found for the money ($1600)
is the Fluke 1630 ,its real easy to use and work well.

Dan,
Is the Xantrex controller available/released yet? I've used the Classic
250 and the Apollo HV but have yet to see/use a Xantrex 600 Voc
controller.will anyone who has used one chime in and share their
experience ?

Sounds like a good situation for a sunny island system.

And, of course, made in China. Given other good choices, that loses me right

I heard there were come kinks in the new XW getting them to play well
together. I understand it's 2 units in a single case and there are some
problems with the idea.
Can't remember think it was at the fair in PA. that someone mentioned it but
it could have been elsewhere.

Might it make more sense to put all the power gear at the panels and run ac

only running the ac wires all the way. It will involve a walk to check the

Otherwise, what are yo
I was just running some preliminary wire sizing for an array about 200
ft away, and DC is just not the problem it used to be.
Using the Midnite Classic at higher array voltages does wonders for
reducing wire size. I have not looked at the XW yet.
AC can't go over 240 v in this situation, so both

Hi Eric;
I'll be very interested to hear what others on this list who have far
more experience than me in large systems have to say about this.
But my first thought is, go DC. The new Xantrex XW high voltage MPPT
