Today I stripped the 22 awg main power wire and replace it with 16 awg. The reason I replaced it because the 22 awg wire was heating up. After making research I discover that 22 awg is too thin for pulling 6 amps. So I change it to a 16 awg which can pull 10 amps leaving me with head room. I finish with one panel. I realize today one strip doesn’t light up at I applied the apoxy. I need to re solder it to another conductor tonight. I am having the feeling that I won’t be able to have it in a open a close case. Bending the conductors is to risky.
