@@sizemattersoffroad9103 ya I've never had issues. Been running it for years. And I used a cheap eBay brand. Also sold several for friends. No issues I even accidentally left it on over the weekend once. No issues.

@@electromechanicalstuff2602 okay awesome, another question I have is it looks like you used 2 resistors from one leg to the other on the contact for the start caps, why is that needed and what resistors did you use?

@@sizemattersoffroad9103 it drains the start caps. They came with the caps when I bought em. Not really necessary. I'd have to check to see the value

@@electromechanicalstuff2602 oh okay thank you, what size wire are you using going to the timer and from the timer to the capacitor? 14ga?

@@sizemattersoffroad9103 timer only controls the coil on the contactor. It can be pretty small it takes less than a half amp to power to contactor coil. I may have used 14 or smaller. The contactor does all the heavy lifting to bring in and disconnect the caps from L1-L3 or L2-L3 sometimes it works better one way or the other but usually doesn't matter

Hahaha. But I'm not

@@electromechanicalstuff2602 you can prove yourself wrong without cutting up any more coax by downloading a good simulator, simNEC comes to mind. Set up a length of 50 Ω coax with a 25 Ω load and a 50 Ω generator Z. Sweep the length between 0 and a bit over 0.5λ and, using the smith chart, see if the SWR changes.

100% u need a BMS lots and lots of brands JBD is the brand I'm using. Definitely need something to monitor individual cell voltages and shut down the battery from charging and discharging when maximum reached

Less than 2%

Awesome,thank you for the info😊

When I did the initial trimming it was not coiled

thats not my video but it gets the point across

Ive been attaching coax to antennas for years as a Ham radio operator and the only time coax was needed to be tuned was for repeater filters where receive and transmit on a single antenna happens simultaneously. Tuned feedlines only work at one specific frequency where they are tuned.

When I say they only work what I meant to say is they are only Tuned at one frequency

Mep-802 is 5kw rated 6kw actual Mep-893 is 10kw rated 12kw actual. Rated at high altitude to perform. So at sea level u get a but more plus 300% starting surge

Totally agree Tom!

My antenna is perfect 1.1 at the antenna. Your multi band antenna. Is it random bands or is it specifically designed to be bands that are resonant with one another. So in two other videos of mine you watch me change nothing but the length of coax it doesn't even have an antenna it has a perfect match dummy load..... And yet the SWR, capacitance and reactance all changes depending on different lengths. Now let me ask u this. Do you or do you not own an antenna tuner? Regardless of it being external or built into the radio. It does what? It adds either inductance or capacitance to the antenna circuit to make it land on 50ohms right? Ok. Now. If you have a tube amplifier does it or does it not have an input tuning network along with an output tuning network? All my old ones do. Why? If the input tune of the amp represents the load/ antenna as far as your radio is concerned y not just have it at a set tune that is not adjustable? Everyone is going to be using 50 ohm coax between the radio and amp right. So y make it adjustable? It's so u can get the lowest SWR at your radio right? How about the output tuning network. Tune and load right? What is that doing? It's tuning the antenna network for the band you're on right? So yes when I'm running my tube amplifiers it really doesn't matter what length my coax is because the amp has input and output tuning networks to make it as close to 50 ohms as possible. Now come on over tho the CB world of transistor amplifiers..... Almost none of them have adjustable input and output tuning networks. So u can do one of two things. Open the amp and physically modify the input and output tune to match whatever random coax you are using from radio to amp and amp to antenna or the builder of the transistor amp makes every amp tuned for a null coax. I've done both. I build both transistor and tube amps for myself only. I have even added air variable capacitors to my base station transistor amps. But in mobile situations they won't survive and will get out of tune too often. So we build for null coax because that's the only thing I can make consistent. If you plug in an antenna analyzer and tune your antenna for the lowest possible SWR and it's still too high install a null coax to get it to 1.1 or better. When u install the transistor amp that is tuned for that 1.1 match it will be happy and have absolutely no reflect. DX commander I love your stuff. I'm very new to this hobby and you're a pro. I just think that sometimes we get stuck in our ways of it's always worked for me so therefore u must be wrong and it just takes a new set of eyes to ask questions and investigate issues that many people are having but many people just ignore. Yes 1.5 is good enough. But I have always been able to tune my network to 1.1 or better while pushing more power than I care to admit to. The lower the SWR the better your reception will be. That is usually more of a factor for me than loosing a few watts In reflect.

As a licensed refrigeration technician who works on 500 ton units and smaller. That coil is not that bad at all. I wash em off several times a year. That r410 unit was 2 or 3 years old at the time of this video and it is now 10+ years old and still running strong. I've since sold that house made $150k on the flip to a Friend. now living on some property in the country that has two r22 units that are about 16 years old and run great also and i have two brand new 30lb bottles of r22 i got for free 5 years ago. I'm not worried at all. Plus don't write everything in capitals. It means you're yelling.

I've had 60+ mph storms and it was ok. But we had either a micro tornado or straight line winds come through that finally took it down but it was strong enough to pull several shingles off my room and all the shingles on my neighbor's roof. It broke at the threads on the last pipe at the top.

U can tune your antenna till your blue in the face. Just like in the video it's a perfect antenna and yet the only thing that changed was the coax length giving you higher SWR by adding different capacitance and inductance. Even with a perfect antenna your SWR will be worse if u don't have a band specific tuned coax

@@electromechanicalstuff2602 Without reflection due to mismatch at feedpoint there will be no standing wave. By coax tuning one is just coping with the frequency of the standing wave interacting with signal, and the commensurate losses and constructive and destructive interference. If changing length or even moving coax vastly changes VSWR, it indicates reflection at feed point as suspect #1 and that bandit is often accompanied by RF on the outside of the coax. Good luck.
