Hello There I have just found this website so i hope my question has the required information
,
Anyway so my solar panel set-up is that i have one 250W 24V panel and one 100W 12V panel on my roof the 24V panel goes into a 20A charge controller and the 12V panel goes into a another 20A charge controller (the charge controllers are identical brands and everything). From here the two charge controllers feed into one 150Ah 12V battery bank.
Now too my issue...
The 250W panel charge controller is the only one feeding power into the battery bank, the other charge controller (with the 100W panel plugged into it) just sits here and float charges 1W all day. This means that even when the battery's are low the 250W panel is the only one supplying power. So is my battery bank too small? or Is my Charge controller set-up wrong? and would it make a difference if i had a bigger battery bank?
Also my charge controllers do not communicate with each other or read battery temp.
Thanks for any replies.
