Thanks Crow!
Direct to the load, but I do have a number of battery packs I can charge off this system.
Solar-mppt-battery-load was my earlier setup. It gained a couple of percent in efficiency, at the cost of greater complexity and multiple single points of failure.
I learned that the first thing I needed to do when designing an intermittent power system is to kill the Little Tin God (efficiency) and bury him in the foundations.
Solar panels are very cheap, single points of failure are very expensive.
XT60s I shall investigate, thanks for the tip :-)
