Not sure if my charge controller will work with AGM batteries?

[Mike90250]

Well, glad that's going to work for you.

Also make sure that the EQUALIZE function is disabled, you don't want to EQ a AGM battery with flooded settings.

Ive got the same Problem and Questions, Google arround for a Answer and landet in this Forum here.

My current Setup is:
Solarpanel 40 Watt: http://www.online-superpreis.de/40w-...zhuelle/a-743/
Charge Controller 16-24 amps (fullcharge cut 13.7): http://www.koekraf.com/produkte/sola...ezifikationen/
12 V Battery 120 Ah AGM: http://www.koekraf.com/produkte/sola...ezifikationen/

The Charge Controller has follow Options:
Load On, Load Off, Charge Off
What are the right setting in here?

I dont get any answer, even here, this all is to much chinese technique for me.

The problem is your approach to the solution. Think of it like a checking account. If all you deposit is $50/day but spend $100/day you are bankrupt.

Battery and solar panel are matched to your daily watt hour usage and location. If you use 1000 wh per day and use a 12 volt battery you need a 420 AH battery @ 12 volts.

If the system is in Tuscon AZ to generate the 1Kwh you need a 200 watt panel and a 20 amp MPPT charge controller.

If in Seattle WS you need 1200 watt solar panel and 2- 60 amp MPPT charge controllers.

So the answer to your question is where are you and how much energy per day do you need in a day.

There is a catch with solar especially off-grid solar. For every watt you deposit, there is a 35 to 50% service charge deducted.

Thank you Sunking
Oh i forgett to say, i use the Equipment above for this device:

http://www.weidezaun.info/weidezaun-batteriegeraet-elektrozaun-batteriegeraete/12V-Weidezaun-Akku---Batteriegeraet-AVi-8-000-835.html

Power Entry is between 31 mA - 300 mA

Its sometimes turned on for a week day and night, depending on weather and gras. In hot days, the device will be turned off in the day and turned on at night because the horse stay in the stable at hot days(to much stress and insects). But its total irregular how much and when its used.
