Rated Data #1

Hi,

I appreciate your projects while I'm looking at LS1024B data etc. Evaluating whether to use modbus or a python library.

One observation, your code says the 'rated data' is for the 'battery' or 'solar panels' etc, whereas I believe the 'rated data' is just the rating of the controller for its input and output voltages. Otherwise it seems a bit scary to plug in a 12V battery and see 'rated battery 24V', which is just some fixed string from the LS1024B :)

Cheers!

Alex

Thanks Alex!

The whole Solar thing is new to me. I'm still learning. I think I've made a few other mistakes in the comments.
