[QUOTE="PeterS, post: 484380, member: 31611"] [USER=28452]@Geoff1946[/USER] Thanks Geoff, I understand what you're saying, but it doesn't really clarify my understanding of how the controller operates. From what you're saying the controllers may as well not have load output at all. [USER=490]@binky[/USER] And thanks binky, you seem to be saying the same, again that the load is virtually irrelevant. If the controller turns out to be ineffective i'll switch to a reputable brand. It doesn't quite add up, as the controller potentially has the ability to output different voltages and currents to load and battery. I'll just leave things as they are for now i guess. As an aside, i've been charging 2 Leoch 130AH adventurer batteries with the solar. They arrived at 13.1V and have charged to the 13.8v. When i turn off the solar the vltage drops to 13.3V after a while. Is that normal? [/QUOTE]
