Solar Controller Overview
Solar controllers are also called the solar charge controller. It is an electronic box that is manufactured for two purposes. It is primarily used to optimize the maximum charging of the deep cycle batteries and prevent the batteries from overcharging, which may become a cause of damage.
The solar controller panel is a product that should be used to regulate the voltage/ current through the solar panel to the batteries; often, people attach the batteries directly with the solar eventually, it damages the battery.
The solar controller updated you from the charging of the battery.
Features
Overcharging
In most 12 voltage panels, it releases the voltage output up to 15 to 20 maximum. If you have 12 voltage batteries, then the releasing energy charges the battery more than its capacity and damages the battery from overcharging.
The solar controller has specifically been designed to eliminate the fear of overcharging.
Prevent reverse flow
when there is no sunlight, the battery reverses the voltage toward the solar potential due to extra charging, which decreases the performance gradually, the solar controller has a feature to stop the reverse flow.
Digital display
The circuit has a digital display that updates you from the up and down voltage of the solar controller.
Pros
The solar panel increases the life of the battery by preventing the problems due to the direct attachment of batteries with solar panels.
Types of charge controller solar
PWM solar charge controller
The PWM is the most used type of solar controller because it is very reachable to the pocket normal salaried person. It provides a minimum range of voltage.
Solar controller MPPT
The MMPT is an expensive type of solar because it provides the maximum range of voltage.
Verdict
It is recommended that the solar controller is the best product to protect your battery; the solar controller is available in online stores.
