This charge controller protects battery against unsafe electrical conditions and must be used to charge 12V batteries.
×40W Features • Max 120 watts solar panel • 10A PWM charge controller with USB output • Portable • Removable MC4 Connectors • Charge 12V battery by alligator clamps- Sealed, Flooded, GEL, AGM, Lithium and other deep cycle batteries • Charge 12V solar generator by MC4 adapter- battery with inverter, power bank/station with built-in charge controller.
3×40W How to test the solar panel Method 1: use a multi-meter Set your multi-meter to measure DC voltage and put the red probe on the red MC4 cable and the black probe on the black MC4 cable (this is the solar panel’s direct output), make sure the connections are secure. the open-circuit voltage should be displayed on your multi-meter and it should be around 17.6V-23V.
3×40W Method 2: use your solar generator To test if the solar panel is working with a solar generator with a built-in charge controller, connect the MC4 adapters that came with your solar generator and plug it in to the MC4 cables of the solar panel directly (Bypassing the charge controller). Turn your solar generator on and it should start charging from the solar panel.
3×40W How to test if the charge controller is working Step 1: Clamp the red battery clip to positive, black to negative and make sure the connection is secure. Make sure the solar panel MC4 cables are connected to the MC4 cables of the charge controller. Step 2: When all the connections are complete, the charging status indicator should light up if the solar is under direct sunlight AND the battery is connected to the charge controller.
3×40W Tip: The charge controller and the USB port will not respond unless it is connected to a battery! Always connect the battery first, then load (if applicable) and then the solar panel. For lights explanation, please check the Specifications section. What are you going to use it for 1. Charge solar generators 1.1.
3×40W 2. Charge your 12 Volt battery The solar panel kit is designed to charge a large range of batteries including Sealed, Flooded, GEL, AGM, Lithium, lead-acid battery and other deep cycle battery. The batteries are used as car battery, RV battery, boat battery and emergency back-up battery. Step 1: understand your battery: battery type, capacity and voltage Step 2: check the charge controller’s set up. We have defaulted the setting of the charge controller is for SEALED.
3×40W The load switch setting method: When the controller is on (battery connected), press the Set button to control load output. Use this button to turn the load ON or OFF. Tip: The USB port will only output when the Load is set to ON. 3. Join your current solar system by Parallel or Series Circuit Step 1: Disconnect MC4 Connectors from the charge controller Step 2: Connect panel with your current system with MC4 connectors. More connectors and extension cables may be needed.
