I just setup a small solar system in my shed.
I have an epever charge controller 20amp, 12v\24v, PCM, this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07R5SVGQF
I have a 350 w Solar panel, here are the details

I believe that panel can do up to 35 volts.
I have a 12 v 120 amph deep cycle lead acid battery, this one: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01DT5564C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
My problem is I can not get higher that 13 v on my charge controller. The most I got from the panel was 150 watts with blue skies.
Could the charge controller be staying at 13 v because I have a 12 v battery, just wondering how I can not get the max out of my new solar panel.
Thanks, em
