Hello, I am new to the\e solar world but managed to get one solar panel working with a 12/24v regulator and inverter to work well with a one bulb lamp for my shed. The problem I'm having is today I purchased 2 used Renogy 100w panels and can't get them to work with my regulator. I tested the panels with my multimeter and they both are producing power close to the max but when I connect them individually or together to the regulator there is no evidence of power, only the 12.4 off connected battery. Is there a trick to testing the panels or have I done so correctly and just bought faulty panels?
Any advice would be great.
Thanks
