my electrotechnik mind is not happy with this arrangement there must surely be a voltage regulator in this picture somewhere PSU is putting out some amount of power, meaning volts and amps of current making a failover for power systems usually requires an accumulator somewhere in the picture, ie, transformer and capacitors adapting to the flow usually takes logic and gates i'm not sure you have got this unless you have some kind of large capacitor buffer in the circuit

i'm just wondering how this works if the voltage is going into the PSU, which is a transformer and capacitor thing, where do you tap in your extra power... seems like it must have to be right on the capacitors because only that would not interfere with the voltage if the solar array is loading the capacitors then they would not draw so much from the mains to charge and discharge into the bridge rectifier that produces the 12V current for the miner... that's the only place you could add extra current without disrupting it does it actually work stable? as in, it doesn't pull power from the mains AC with the DC current from the array?
