I think I finally figured it out! After connecting other cables to other smaller solar panels, they seemed to be working. So that told me that the longer cable that's 50ft long was not getting any voltage from panels or something was wrong. So I took a look at the cable connectors that I had...

Ok, I only have two panels plugged in in series and tested the connections to see what voltage I got. I also checked the voltage on the MPPT to see what I was getting. I also turned the inverter on and have my pc plugged into it and running it off the system to see if I can discharge the...

You know, I was thinking that and might give that a try. Thank you!

Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to reply. I will keep testing and checking voltage like you mentioned.

I did have my panels hooked up in series during the day but the solar charge controller did not show the charging icon, nor any power coming from the panels. So I disconnected the wires running the panels and re-did the connectors again, and then another time after seeing that there was no power...

Right now, I don't have them plugged in, since I am having to connect them and take them outside on my driveway when I want to test them. They are sitting inside my garage and I take them out during the day. Eventually, they will hopefully be installed on my roof.

Thanks for your reply. I fully charged the batteries with a lithium battery charger until the charger stopped and said fully charged on the screen. I will test the connection of the volts tomorrow and check the voltage.

Hello, I am new to this forum and I hope I can get help getting my system working. I am new to solar power and I have been working and learning to build my solar system that will hopefully power my office throughout the day. I have a big issue with my MPPT solar charge controller (You can view...

I have the same problem. I just installed new panels and the MPPT just displays that it is in night mode. I am guessing it is not getting any voltage from the panels, but I have checked them and everything seems to be plugged in correctly.
