I recently replaced my Bogart PWM solar charge controller with an EPEVER Tracer 4210AN / 40A MPPT in anticipation of upgrading to LiPo soon. I have 420w of solar / (3) 140w-12v panels / parallel..... Two 105Ah AGM batteries in parallel.....With batteries fully charged, as soon as the sun comes up, I'm seeing 14.7v on my battery voltage meter. I have 12V TVs that do not like anything above 12.5V. I have installed "Buck Converters" on the TVs to limit voltage to 12V.......But I wonder if this high voltage is doing damage to other 12V devices?
Here is what the MT-50 solar monitor is showing
Solar Panel Output - 20.6V / 1.2A
Battery - 14.7V / 1.7A input
Here are the settings I currently have on the EPEVER Tracer:
Batt Type - User
Batt Ah - 200Ah
Rated Voltage - Auto
Over Volt Disc -16.0
Charge Limit - 14.8
Over Volt Rec - 15.0
Equalization Chg - 14.6
Boost - 14.4
Float - 13.5
Boost Rec - 13.2
Low Volt Rec - 12.6
Under Volt Rec - 12.2
Under Volt Warn - 12.0
Low Volt Disc - 11.1
Discharge Limit - 10.6
Equalization Time - 60 min
Boost Time - 120 min
I set "Boost" and "Float" as instructed by the Duracell AGM battery charging parameters.
Can anyone tell me if this all looks right or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks!
