      In short, my little solar farm is producing more power than Hoover Dam!!

      Ok…. The bottom-left value (“1440W”) means that Missy’s solar panels are collecting 1440 Watts of power. That is being converted into 51.4 Amps at 28.1 volts to be used by the coach and loaded into the battery bank (charged). 1440 watts is a HUGE amount of power for a motorhome and collecting it far north in Minnesota (where there is less solar “Solar Insolation” – less sunlight) is pretty cool!
