Hey folks, so I have my panels delivered. I have picked out my battery and now I am looking to buy a charge controller to link all this together.
I have purchased 3 solar panels from Amazon for a total of 960W (spec has also been attached):
After some much appreciated help from you guys I have a battery picked out though I have not finalised the purchase yet so this might change depending on this thread.
So I now need to look out a charge controller for all of this.
From an earlier conversation @Rednecktek told me I need a 40A controller although this was slightly off-topic at the time so I didn't go into details on this.
The supplier of the battery recommends Victron product (as do a lot of the videos I see online) but there are just SOOOOooooo many. ??
Can you guys recommend one for me that will scale if I add any more batteries/components to my build? I dont think I'll have room for any more panels so that should be fairly fixed.
I do intend to use an inverter (probably around 2500-3000W) and a dc/dc charger to the mix and would like to have a access to control and monitor through the Bluetooth app or similar.
Thanks in advance for any and all help with this.
