Very novice here, so please bear with me...
New solar array - 350 watts of panels at 12 volts connected to a hub > renogy wanderer charge controller > 100ah lifepo4 battery > 4000 watter pure sine inverter.
My issue is when the panels and controller are connected to the battery and the inverter is on, things will run for a few minutes and the inverter reads 13.9 dcv (give or take .1) but the creeps up to 40...40.1 - then charge controller beeps, pv light goes solid, battery light flashes quickly, power cuts out, then seconds later it resumes.
The controller will go from solid pv light and solid battery light to slow flashing pv and solid batt, then the beep, quick flash batt light, cut out, resume with solid pv and solid batt (always green). Any idea what is going on? Is the charge controller not actually controlling the charge? I'm trying to learn and not instinctually good with this stuff so any assistance would be great.
