800W solar on a 1kWh unit is this even realistic?
Been looking at specs for the OSCAL PowerMax 1800SE and the 800W solar input caught my attention. It sounds great on paper but also feels a bit too optimistic for a unit this size. Most stations around 1kWh usually cap at 400 or 500W.
I already have two 400W panels installed on my van roof so in theory it would be perfect if I can use them directly. Not sure if its a single port setup or needs an adapter. Also wondering if it actually sustains that input or just peaks briefly in perfect sun.
Heat is my main concern. Pulling 800W into a small enclosure could create thermal issues in a van. I checked some specs over on bulgarian .llc but wanted to hear from someone who has actually hit those numbers.
Has anyone tested this setup in real summer conditions? Also, does it come with MC4 to XT60 cables or do I need to source those?
