A question about the size of the controller : my system and my batteries are 12V, what If I connect my 2 12V 135W solar panels in series, do I divide 270 by 24 or by 12 ?

very easy to understand even from someone like me, a senior woman, who does not know anything but wants to build a solar powered small home. Thank you.

Incredible knowledge. I watched all three videos - panels, batteries, and controllers. Now I feel more comfortable talking with the solar companies. Thank you.

You have been the only one that has broken it down in an understandable manner. Thank you!!

As always incredibly clear and concise information that even I can comprehend, not that I'm unintelligent, my brain was just never wired for any electrical information; looks like that is slowly changing thanks to you. Thanks for sharing.

With each video, I get one step closer to installing solar on our rv! Thanks...VERY helpful, VERY informative!

Simple and concise explanation of the controller differences. This is going to help me build my solar system on my Overland truck build. Thanks for being so factual

You articulated everything well, and were concise, so I gave you a sub for not wasting my time! This is what I look for in videos

Keep up the video, this is a must have info.

Just found your channel. U do the best job I have seen simplifying the solar process. Will subscribe. Look forward to watching the archived stuff. Peace!

Good well laid out information. I like the comparison charts too.

Hey, i love your simple and straight explanation. It really helps me. Thanks mate.

Thanks I always learn something from your videos! I always wondered about the amp size controller needed. Thanks so much.👍

Thanks for keeping it simple.

Fantastic! Crystal clear explanation and exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.

As a practical matter in the context of a RV, except for very large arrays in very exposed situations and very careful panel placement, a PWM controller will come very close to most MPPT. Shading as you have noted is important and can be an overwhelming factor in a solar rig that moves from place to place and is affected by AC covers, campsite locations etc.

You have given the best and easiest advice to understand, on the whole topic. If you haven't already, then you should defiantly write a book. Thank you so much for putting in all this work. You are brilliant

thx for your video and also for the reference to the AU Direct video... both much appreciated.

On smaller systems, it's worth noting that under 10watts MPPT stop tracking - so I use PWM on a small 20 watts system on my shed for charging car batteries with a well-matched panel that peaks at 17.5v - and an MPPT on my 280-watt system on my motor home where the panel peaks at 32volt and the lifepo4 battery is charged at 14.4volt. So i would say well-matched panels on sub 40watt systems PWM works well

This is exactly what I have been looking for! Thank you. Great video!

Just came across this video. Holy smokes, Outstanding vid, out of dozens, this is the BEST, most concise and easiest to understand I have seen!!! A little late but many thanks!! ☺

A lot of useful content in 7 minutes. Thanks!

another great video ! well done !

Great articulate and informative videos sir. Thank you.

Clear concise explanation. Thanks

To make it simple for folks the way to go if you do not live where the sun shines all day and is cloudy alot, go with a MPPT controller. In a 12 volt battery system wire your panels for a 24 volt system. The MPPT can handle the higher voltage and charge your 12 volt batterys. The advantage is when cloudy the panels will still be putting out higher voltage with fewer amps to the controller. The controller changes the voltage into more amps to charge the batterys at 12 volts. But if you're out in the desert or where you get sunshine most of the day, either type MPPT or PWM will work fine. I found that a MPPT charge controller taking in wired for 24 volts solar panels will be charging a 12 volt battery system at nite parked under a street light!!!

Hi There Its Beare Ramlal here from Gauteng, South Africa. Your videos are extremely useful. I'm currently designing a solar system for my small holding (small farm) Thanks for this initiative

Thanks for the straight forward en simple explanation. Ma question is how do you do the setting on the mppt charge controller?

Thank you for your video.

Great video 👍

Great teacher

wow good explanation thanks keep it up

Very informative.thanks

Great work

Would love to see a vid about the differences between mppt vs own. I want to learn as much as I can about solar so I can engineer mine. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Hey Todd. There is a link to the technical video on these two types of controllers in my pinned comment on this video. Hope this helps give you all the info you need. Thanks for watching!

Thank you véry much.Was well explained.

Nice i need this info...thanks for sharing...

Great video!

is it okay to have exist amps solar controller? like 50 amps needed and i install 60 amps. thanks

Hey Dude you save me ! Thanks a lot I was wrong on size of control ...

very good information Thank you,

Good info Thanks

Thanks very clear explanation

Great video Michael: Solar Edge advertises that they have panels that have individual controls so one damaged panel in a string does not compromise the rest. Does the MPPT charge controller also do this ? I hope you cover this later in the series

fantastic video!! Question: I have 300a of solar panels, which means I need 25amps controller. Would a 20amp be close enough or should I trade for a 40amp?

Great man..i want to run solar panel and wind turbine togethere .can i attach both different energiese in one battery bank and inverter?

Nice vid thank you

Excellent.

how to choose between high volts and high amps ? what are the possibilities we can go through them. i mean which charges the battery faster ?

Great... Thank You.

Hello from Canada! I have question, how do you determine size of your battery bank, how many amps base on your solar system. Let say if I have 400 W solar what would you recommend? Thx Steve

I'm working on building my 2nd off-grid boat dock (this one is for a friend). I went with PWM for mine for a number of reasons. If I have a 2-panel array in an area (no buildings or trees nearby) where there is no shade (other than clouds). Is there any efficiency benefit to MPPT in this situation? Each panel should be able to receive the same amount of sunlight all the time. I'm trying to decide whether it is more important to choose higher wattage panels or an MPPT. For my friend's dock, I'm trying to decide whether to go with a 12v battery configuration and whether I should choose a 12v array or a 24v array along with whether to pick MPPT or PWM. On a cloudy day, I see my PWM system charges at around 10% of panel capacity -- 670w array charges at around 67w with full cloud cover. Would an MPPT system achieve higher efficiencies in this situation? With my current load, that means I have around 10 watts of excess power that goes towards charging the batteries. I have 210aH, 24v battery array, so that gives me plenty of storage to last through a few days/nights of full cloud cover. I'm hoping I can accomplish the same for my friend but by spending as little as possible.

I will like to see more of yours video...

Thank you.

Thanks Legends.

how to calculate the solar panels needed tfot 10HP well water pump?

Thanks for the video! Just 1 question. Why do you size de controller with FVP(W)/Sistem V (V)? Isnt the current of the solar string limited by the module itself?

Yes, please need explanation video!

great video

Curious about this. Some PWM charge controllers will output 12v with a 24V input from the panels. Why do you believe this cannot be done?

So I'm planning on making a solar system with 2 100w solar panels and I'm not to make a battery with eve 280ah cells with a daly 200a or higher bms and I was wondering if I was able to use a pwm charge controller for that kinda of system or would I have to get a mttp charge controller I'm building it for a micro camper

thank you

Like your videos. Welldon boss

Do Charge Controllers get software updates, or are they only assembled hardware components ? Any hacks as to increasing efficiency percentages ?

Hello, Just got the SMK MPPT Solar Charge controller, Please i need to understand the parameters,I know PV means voltage from sun P means charging power and U means voltage of battery what does Today mean? and when do u know the battery is fully charged as well as when do we know we are using the solar panel for grid and not the charge stored in the battery?

is there a solar panel that is 1000w?? What AC do you recommend for offgrid living??

I have a 100 watt panel output about 18V and need to charge 2 12 volt deep cycle batteries in parallel on my camper, is there anything besides what amp charger I should be concerned with?

Nice info

Hi i want to buy solar controller from loom solar in India, not sure which one to buy?

Can I use 60a SCC for 4pcs 455watts panel in a 24v system?

please can you do a video on how to properly size your charge controller for you solar pales. Example lets say i have 64 panels of 150watts each. how can i select a suitable charge controller?

Very informative & Interesting :) So glad RV Jedeye Introduced me to your KZread Channel & So glad Carolyn's RV Life KZread Channel introduced me to RV Jedeye KZread Channel :)

how many hrs to fully charge a 100Ah battery from a 200w pv?

What if your solar panels have solar charge controllers on them and the solar generator has a solar charge controller on it would that be a bad thing? Is it better if the solar panel have a charge controller on itself then feed a regular charge controller. Or once the solar panel sends voltage from the panel controller it can go directly to battery without any worries? Reply

Can I connect two solar controller from the same solar panels?

Thanks for the guide, and about sizing, is it okay if you already have an available 20a SCC but then you only have a single solar Panel , can you use it to the 100w panel , while you are still planning to have a parallel Solar array soon? Or do I really need to calculate the panel and battery 1st and follow the recommendation for the SCC size? Thanks again...

Can I buy a bigger amp controller than what I need? I plan on buying more panels and want to be prepared

whats the maximum input of a charge controller? thanks

how many hrs to charge a 100ah battery on a 200w pv

I’m only charging one deep cycle battery for my camping fridge for weekends ,I think I will stick with my PMW , and it’s shows me on the back when the fridge is using or isn’t using ,
