Hey all,
Bit of a newbie here, but Renogy won't reply to my support request.
I have 400w of panels, wired in series and parallel, ie 2 X 200w sets. On a winter day here they put out about 32v @ 6a total to my Renogy 20a rover controller.
This outputs to a lithtech 100ah Lifepo4 battery.
According to the Bluetooth BMS on board the battery, with no other loads connected, it generally only receives about 6-7a at approx 13v.
By my calculations, that would suggest I'm only getting roughly half the output from the panels to my battery.
Shouldn't the controller step up the amps much higher to use as much power as possible from the panels?
Cheers.
