Hi guys
Got my solar system connected to charge my boat battery...my question is ....
Can I leave it connected whilst the engine IS running. Like a plug and play and forget.. or must I disconnect before starting running motor TIA GUYS

If the charge controller is properly configured to charge the battery, you should not have to disconnect it during use.

Hi snoobler
Yes my mate I'm using a 30w renogy panel, and victron 100/15 MPPT and a lead acid battery.. thanks for the input btw ?‍♂️
I was hoping I could just forget about it that the battery would be charged via the motor the MPPT would just monitor it's progress till it dropped a few days later perhaps
 
NOOB here! Glad I found this thread as I've been wondering the same. Which configuration setting and what does it need to be set to to enable this? I have the HP2430-EPE that comes in the Renogy 100 watt kit.
