Re: Multiple Charge Controllers
Each charge controller makes its own decision, based on the battery bus voltage and charging current it is outputting. In general, the controllers will not be "synced" with each other. One …1 · -
Re: Charging batteries using generator & MPPT charge controller
I am not sure I would use a PWM charge "series type" charge controller between a DC genset and a battery bank. Generators and alternators are pretty inductive, and a PWM controller can caus…1 · -
Re: Morningstar MPPT Charge Controller slow charge
With Vmp-array closer to 18 volts or less (remember that Vmp falls as the panels get hot in the sun), the mppt controller can really only operate like a pwm controller. With Vmp-array over 20 volts (…1 · -
Re: Overall Efficiency of MPPT Charge Controller vs. Inverter vs. Combo Units (Off-Grid)
As an example of why I suggest an overall conversion efficiency of an off grid AC power system is ~52% (charge during day, use power at night/during bad weather): * 81% derating of Vmp*Imp=Pmp for &q…1 ·
