I have a mini solar power system setup. Do you think it will work out well?

By admin | November 7, 2009

Micah W asked:


I have a 18w sunsei solar panel with a charge controller. I also bought a 400w dc-ac inverter and a everstart deep cycle marine battery. Do you think that this panel will charge the battery and how much power will put out and for how much time. Any suggestions?

      rig it up to a multi metre and see how fast it charges to full load.

      take note on this; assuming if u have a 1000 amp hour ……it is recomended to draw only 10% which is……… 100 amps, if its a 800 amp hour batt…..its 80 amps…..but don t exceed 10% as it shortens battery life
      once drawn it has to be replaced asap.

      you have not given your batt size….
