Hi, Skipp: Yes, it has low V disconnect. We have two large solar panels - both3' X 5' and six large marine deep cycle batteries. I'm in sunny southern Calif, which helps a lot. AWe had one dropout when we had only one panel and two car batteries. No outages since the power upgrade.

Does the the smart charger also have a low voltage disconnect? Have you noticed the repeater out of service in winter or low light conditions? Having the extra battery capacity can be very handy. cheers, skipp
