However, in the version one, the bus bar used was an aluminium bar, which proved to cause too much resistance in the circuit. This large resistance caused for a drop in voltage and create inaccurate voltages read by the charge controller. The bar shall be replaced with a more electrically conductive material to increase efficiency. As well, the current size of the project is too large, so version 2 will be condensed down. Even though this circuit had power losses. For 2 years, the circuit had run smoothly and resulted in 3000 accumulated amp hours in charging and 2000 accumulated amp hours in discharging.
