Solar Panel Wiring?

Post by Dzombo4 »

After about two years I decided to wire the solar panel to charge the second battery when stationary.
Looking at the connections (see attached pic) I have no clue which terminals to use.
It is numbered from 0 to 6, with a plus next to the Zero and a minus next to the 6.
My Steca controller only have a plus and a minus connection for the panel.
:beg: :beg: :beg:

Nou kan ek weer help. Jy gebruik die buitenste twee connections. Die linkerkantste een is (+ve) gaan na die + van die controller en die regterkanste een (-ve) na die - van die controller.

As jy die linkerkantste of regterkanste twee konneksies gebruik, kry jy net die helfte van die sonpaneel se output

Ek vra onverskoning. Ek was blykbaar verkeerd en lelik gewees. Radio beheer karretjies het meer krag as dit nodig en sal nie van 'n halwe sonpaneel af kan charge nie! LR's charge blykbaar nogsteeds van hulle af :tongue:
