Well, almost there. Got the battery box installed and wired up. After checking the voltages (pretty low, batteries need some charging), I connected the battery box to the system. I setup the Trimetric monitor and it looks good other than only 12.3V on the batteries. Next it was time to try the solar panels and enabled them and no faults or apparent issues other than it was almost dark so other than one or two brief instances where it tried to charge, I was out of any sun (history showed it hit 30.6V on the panels at some instant but it was quickly down to the teens so no charging. Darkness came so the inverter is the only thing left to check out tomorrow. I'll post some pictures soon.

Almost done!
