No not under any form of charge

Everything is DC

I have two 206 SOK batteries in parallel connected to a mppt charge controller with dc-dc. Recently, when running a 60watt fan, the amp draw will randomly jump up from 4ah draw to 8.5 ah draw and randomly drop to 2.5 ah and back up to 4ah. I can visually see this on my battery monitor screen...

I am replacing a breaker on my 460 watt solar array system. 460 watts to a renogy mppt with dc-dc Is it safe to disconnect the broken breaker i have with a new one, crimp lugs and connect while the panels are in the sun? I will obviously disconnect from my battery before. I do not have access...

I have a 12v system, 214amph of battery. I have an induction cooktop hooked up to my 3000 watt inverter. When using other appliances everything is fine, but when using my 1800 watt induction cooktop, it trips my 250 amp breaker. it does this when turned any higher than the medium setting. Is...

the switch pannel that I already have is only normal switches. I don't want a three way switch. I want to be able to do it this way if possible but don't want to waste my time if it won't work.

Im wondering if this setup will work to be able to turn on two lights using two switches. I want to be able to turn on the lights from two different locations but I have no way of making a three way switch. Will this work? or will it cause a short circuit.

This whole time i thought it was my charge controller malfunctioning. Turns out i just had a faulty breaker not allowing current to my batteries. Is a breaker absolutely needed going from charge controller to battery? I have a breaker from solar to charge controller.

It appears that a breaker i had installed broke. Not tripped but rather broke. So this whole time I thought it was the controller because the breaker was not tripped. Lesson learned i guess.

I connected my solar panels to my renogy dc-dc charger with mppt charge controller BEFORE connecting them to my batteries. Did i just wreck my charge controller? Now its saying that i have no wattage and no amps coming in.

It thinks the batteries are charged however they are not. They are only 75% sitting at 12.8 volts

My 50amp dc-dc charger with mppt is not allowing my 460 watts of solar to charge my batteries. I have it on the correct settings for my battery type. Below is a picture of what my controller is telling me.

there currently is no loads on the inverter. just three extension cords going to where appliances will eventually be

I believe the manual says beeping means low voltage. i have not used a volt meter I am using 2/0 wire I will try hooking the inverter directly to the batteries and see if that works. Obviously with a breaker for safty
