I was trying to figure out if there was a device out there that could auto switch power from a D050S (DC Enhancer) and a T500 (AC Adapter)?
During the day, I’d like to take advantage of using an D050S to capture that extra 500w of solar but when the sun goes down, I’d still want the T500 plugged in to charge via the grid. Both D050S and T500 connect via a DC7909 barrel plug (8mm?). Most importantly, I dont want to unplug and plug in the other adapter, would like this all automatically done.
I was looking for something similar to this:
But needed 8mm and high amps/voltage (15A, 50V for solar?, 500W AC/DC)
Has anyone come across something like this? Or even better a SMART Switch, where Home Assistant can turn off after a certain time and turn on the other, etc.
I say at night you just power it over a solar input.
Uses a power supply with current limit and with lower voltage then your solar cells so it always prefers solar.
Uses Diodes (as “vale”) so you dont back feed power to your solar celles
