SELECTING A [tag]SOLAR POWER BATTERY[/tag]-WHAT TO CONSIDER
When Selecting a Solar Battery Charger for Your RV Consider These Items:
1. Batteries are exposed to varying temperature extremes:
If not taken into consideration, this can lead to plate sulfation and/or excess water loss. It is important to include battery temperature compensation in the charge controller.
2. Operating of solar panels:
Solar panels operate at higher than normal temperatures when laid flat on the roof of RVs, from which they suffer a voltage drop. Make sure your solar panels are rated at about 17 volts or higher in order to allow for this voltage drop and still be able to fully charge your battery.
3. Use of charge controllers:
The use of incorrect charge controllers may lead to unsatisfactory performance and possible battery damage.
What Type of System Do You Need?
The selection of a power system starts with a look at your current power needs and the type of camping you enjoy (i.e. weekend, extended or fulltime). If your power demands increase for any reason, solar systems are easily expanded.
