    Voltage of solar panels

    I have the 24v mppt hooked up to 24v batteries. I guess I was a little braindead when I got my solar panels. When I look at them, they are not 24v but 12v. I have 6 of them them hooked up in series so total v out is 72. How does this affect the total wattage in? Is it really only half...

    Help with error code 13

    I have 6 100watt 24v panels hooked in series so the total v is 144. Ok, well I know right now my voltage was not far under what it would handle and it's in the low 30s today. So, if I break my panels into 2 sets of series hooked together i should be ok?

    Help with error code 13

    I have the 24v all in one mppt and today I got a fault warning with error code 13. When I looked it up, it stated Solar charger stops due to high PV voltage.. that means the voltage from the solar panels? How can this happen?

    Connecting two wind turbines

    I kind of looked at the description of a rectifier. It states it converts ac to dc. Isn't this already being done by the charge controllers?

    Connecting two wind turbines

    I have two 400W 12v 3 phase wind turbines and charge controllers. I also have a 24v mppt solar system. I would like to include the WT in with the solar system. If they were 24v I could just connect them to the same battery system used by the mppt (right??). However, they are 12v . I don't...

    Dc to ac converters.

    I guess I'm just curious. Is there any difference between car converters or one for solar panels. When I was looking at the different models I notice both had cables that went to the batteries and plug INS on the Box. Just looking at them the car converters looked the same as the ones for...

    Also the WT is 12v, the MPPT is 24 v. Will it hurt having the WT hooked to the same batteries as the MPPT?

    I hooked it up to the controller and hooked it to the battery . Seems to be working? It's a very simple controller and only shows me battery, charging, and brake lights. Nothing about how much is actually coming off it. I was thinking about getting this to go with it...

    Well, luckily we get plenty of wind here. This is on a 5 ft post in a field. Typical day for wind.

    So, I need to have it setup like this? WT to controller to dump to battery? I'm assuming it's safe to connect the wt do the same battery the mppt solar unit is connected to?

    Solar and Wind sources

    About the previous post business. A little confused since I was originally told this mpp could handle solar, wind and generator. However, after seeing nothing in the doc about wind, I am asking. I was given a long and convoluted way of doing it. Hook it up then program the mpp to 'pass' the...

    Lol....my general thought process going all directions. Hoping to have just one charge system setup and not multiple. A little confused since I was originally told this mpp cold handle solar, wind and generator. However, after seeing nothing in the doc about wind, I am asking.

    Solar and Wind sources

    I live in TX and already checked that we do indeed get the wind we need for it. On low days it's about 10 . Which I'm glad of cause I didn't realize that most of the country does not get the wind needed to one.. I have two 12v batteries hooked together to get 24v. Now the wind one states 12v...

    Couple questions. I have solar (Mpp system) and a wind turbine. It came with a controller that has a braking system. You plug in the wind wires and it has the dc pos and neg to hook to the battery. 1) Can I have both my solar and wind system connected to the same batteries? 2) Another...

    Will do! I think it'll work great. It was spinning nicely just sitting on a 5ft wooden fence post. Should work even better on a 20 ft pole. Luckily, we do get the wind here.

    Yes, it's supposed to have a break. Ok, so I hook the three red wires to the three green wires. I also have a MPP 24v 2.4kW PIP Model for my solar panels. Can I just hook this up to that some how? Would I just hook the pos and neg battery wires to the solar neg/pos wires coming into the...
