Hi,
I have an AC200P that is working fine charging from the wall. However, I am having trouble charging it with solar panels. The setup is:
AC200P
3x HQST HSP100P-L (100W 12V solar panel)
In my setup, I have the 3 panels connected in series. I am using the MC-4 adapter that came with the AC200P The open circuit voltage is around 55V as measured by a DMM (for reference, the voltage range for the AC200P is 35-150V). I have the panels in a window, so there is some partial shading of the panels, but it's a small portion of the panels.
When I plug it into the AC200P, the unit itself says that the voltage is around 52V (fluctuates between 46-55 or so). However, the charging current is 0A, and sometimes 0.1A.
Is there something I am doing wrong here? Thank you for any help and suggestions.
