    Thanks! Great info, I've been wanting to use one of these for a solar setup. Any idea if these need to be de-rated for continuous use?

    I've been a little slow with the posts because of the holiday and weather. I'll have more posted soon. The thing with a rack ups is that you need to download the monitoring software and adjust some of the settings before they can be effectively used.
