800 watts on silent mode?? Was the setup correct?
@HolidayForTwo427 күн бұрын
Yes, I discovered to my surprise that even though the AC180 is set to silent mode and a sudden demand is placed on it where you're pulling a large load, say 800 plus watts or more, then it will begin to pull more power in to compensate. Since I had it plugged into the EB70 via the regular AC cord, it started to pull more power than the EB70 could handle (anything over 800 watts and it shuts off automatically) So, if I want to use the EB70 as back up power supply, I have to use the DC Plug on the EB70 to the solar plug on the AC180 - I the n have all my solar power running into the EB70 (about 300 watts on a good day) This setup, so far - seems to work the best for me. If I plug the AC180 directly into the EB70 via the 110 outlet, it sometimes shuts off on me if I run something big like a microwave or coffee pot etc. I hope that makes sense - maybe I should set them up and make a video on that to show what happens when you do that...
@cafepuya6 күн бұрын
@@HolidayForTwo42 I think I got it, it’s like if you’re demanding decent wattage while charging in silent mode, because of the wattage you’re pulling, then it needs the fan on certain speed and then it wouldn’t be silent anymore.. maybe it changes charging mode by trying to refreshing itself. Thanks for the reply, little by little we’re learning to handle these things.

Hey you two. I wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I enjoy your videos as I approach retirement. Mainly because you share freely where you go, with map directions/how to get there. Without coming across as supposed "super secret stewards of the land" we grew up in that won't share spots because they think that these public land spots are somehow now their own.. I understand not sharing where you are in the moment for safety, but for f*cks sake you are camping in areas with published maps! A lot of transplant KZfaqrs seem to think that since they relocated here, the public land locations they discovered are their own personal secrets because they bought a chunk of dirt here, and bemoan how the place they came from got "too crowded and expensive". A bit of a rant, but thanks from a native Arizonan. And "Bear Down!"
