Well, the title already describes it. Is the load output of a 75/10 being disabled when the entire MPPT is being disabled?
In particular:
Not sure which trickle charger, but a brief drop in voltage at engine start shouldn't kill it, mine has survived being permanently on for nearly a year now.
Off should mean off for the MPPT.
A Votronic 3065. The voltage drop would happen on the output side, so irrelevant from my standpoint.
But, would MPPT off mean MPPT Load output off as well? If so, I doesn't matter how the Votronic behaves ..
That's what I have. I opened it up a while ago. There are a couple of diodes, resistor and what looks like a temperature dependant resistor. All that will happen is that the current goes up, limited by the internal circuit. They're limited to about three amps.
Should be safe.
But load output should be off if you turn the MPPT off. But the votronic will draw from your house battery. Not sure how quickly the voltage drops after the MPPT is turned off. So there may be some current.
