This modification adds both an integrated DC circuit breaker and a blocking diode to the standard LAKOTA controller to protect both the turbine and LDR when used with solar.

Before mounting the LDR into the controller, simply cut a slot into the side of the controller as shown and mount the 30A or 60A OBDC circuit breaker on which ever side of the box your battery cables are connected. This works fine for 24 and 48v systems but we have not found a suitable 100A breaker for the 12v series that will fit in the same space.
