I was able to set everything up myself for a test run. Everything reads beautifully. I read all the manuals twice and made sure I lined everything up first. I did accidentally put the positive on the negative on the battery by accident and did not screw anything up 🙂 I ran my systems under my test setup and everything works well. There are a few wires missing to hook up the battery switch so I set it aside for the future. I also needed to cut the positive wire from the solar panel to the controller and strip the ends for the fuse. I guess that is so you can put it where you needed it. You will need a few wrenches and a square bit for the fuse. My order came very quickly and I was upgraded to better solar panels free of charge since they were on backorder for mine. I will order through home depot again.. great solar system and I can easily add a third panel with no fuss.

Battery provided did not do as expected. Dropped from 100% to 55% in matter of hours but held a charge of 45 to 55% for over 12 hours with the same load.
