Yep same here the ubiquitous CH361 and a midnite SPD and a Delta. I very
rarely need more than 2 strings so fuses and not used. I would never want

Hi Howie,
I have installed about 10 of these and all have worked well, longest operating
unit about 3 years old. My only complaint is the 600V input breakers are not
really thought through, as my understanding is code does not permit 600VDC
within the PDP, Midnite, etc enclosure. So we use a Sq
My record is 1500 feet with the mppt-80-600v. I don't have a generator so
I am a bit different:) the pix is working again!

We have had two in the field for two years with noproblems. They
allowed us to run 375feet with conductors that was substantially smaller
than what would have otherwise been possible. Chris

I'll vouch for Schneider's 600A charge controller as well. We don't have
as many as Dave has out there but no failures. Seems to be a solid
device. Works well with the PDP too.
Good Luck!

Boy, that would be a bonus! I like sticking with products that have worked
for me, although I am intrigued by the XW 600vDC.
Any word on the release date for Midnite's inverter?

Thanks Dave! That was my thought as well, just wanted to make sure I
wasn't inviting a new host of problems with a new (to me) piece of
equipment.
Why the XW150 in this system as well?

Wow that is bad! I only have used their 400AH 6V and prefer a wet battery
from Surrette, US, or Trojan for Lead Acid.

FYI Howie,
Schneider engineers are actively working on a communication solutions
between the Schneider Xanbus and Midnite controllers. I've been talking
to an engineer working on it who says it should be ready very soon. It
will also work with the combox for remote monitoring.

Anyone have feedback/review of the 600 volt Schneider Charge Controller
that they'd care to share? I have an existing Conext XW+ off-grid system

Thanks for all the input. I like the "new battery Fund" idea, we might have to
implement something like that. Certainly helps incentivize the client to make
every watt count.
I agree the batteries are on their way out the door, but not quite there yet.
