  • Connect the solar panel to the solar charge controller before connecting the battery clamp lead to the solar controller.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

  • Ensure the battery has enough voltage for the solar charge controller to recognize the battery type before first installation.
  • The battery cable should be as short as possible to minimize loss.
  • The regulator is suitable for lead-acid batteries (Flood, AGM, GEL), and lithium-ion. Not suitable for nickel-metal hydride, or other battery types.
  • The charge regulator is only suitable for regulating solar modules. Never connect another charging source to the charge regulator.
  • The solar charge controller will be hot when working. Please install in a flat, well-ventilated area.

HOW TO CHARGE A 12V BATTERY

  1. Connect the battery to the solar charge controller.
  2. Connect the load to the solar charge controller.
