Huge Victron MPPT 150/35 problem, small channel problem, Raspberry Pi and bus bars incoming. UPDATE!

With this video, I'm jumping a bit ahead in time as there will be more videos coming after the last one showing the progress on the installation. But I felt I needed to get this out right now.
I had to get that knife! Please be nice here on the channel, have healthy discussions and help each other out. That's all I'm asking for. I'm not concerned if I'm doing things wrong and others make fun out of me but the overall tone needs to be NICE!
I also giving you an update on the Victron charge controller problem, I briefly mentioned in the Community Tab of my channel.
Thank you everyone for all your support here on the channel and playing fair and nice! THANK YOU.

    Thanks for the Shout Out Andy, more than happy to share what I have learned, just like you are sharing your knowledge and experiences on this channel.

    Andy, you are “inviting” us into your garage, so we have a responsibility to respect you and your space. Just as you would physically eject someone being disrespectful in your home it should be no different with an online community. Your house, your rules, and if people don’t like that they can leave!

    AC is self extinguishing because the voltage is traveling thru zero 100 times per second. Once an arc is established with DC it behaves like an arc welder and will travel along a cable until such time the arc can't be sustained.

    I love all your videos. I'm an amateur as well and love your in depth explanation. Most videos are too short and assume everyone has the same knowledge as the poster. I also love that you show your failures! I'm sure it will save me time in the future.

    Hi Andy, I think I have watched all your videos up until now and always have a chuckle (especially the frogs) and really enjoy them. In fact, they are so inspiring to the extent that I am going to upgrade my new caravan with some of this lithium stuff! Keep those videos coming!

    Nice DC breakers! I just got a double post one today too (between victron charge controller 100/50 and battery)! They are so cool!

    Hi Andy, thank you for taking the time for this video and adress abusive behaviour online and in life in general. Keep your channel going, we learn so much from you and the solar community! I made a solar install on my camper and would not have been able without the community. "Stay charged, stay safe... Be nice!"

    Hi, I have a small 1000w solar system and so far I had no problem with my tracer an controller (4210 it goes only to 100v solar input, but there are other models). Keep up the good work...
