Hi Guys :)
I have a Classic 150 lite and an Outback Grid Interactive 3648 inverter. Both have battery temp probes. Which do I use?

I would say that you use both - the Classic will compensate for when your solar or wind is charging. The Outback inverter will compensate for when it is using generator power to charge your batteries.

Both devices probably need to know the battery temp so I suggest you use both.

Good luck with it.
