Hi All, this is my first post for my first solar system and the site looks great!
I have a 20 watt 12volt solar panel to charge a 12volt 6ah 76wh life04 battery, my load is a 12V inductive load water pump that draws 0.7A. The pump is water temp controlled on only during daylight hours. The Miady LiFePo4 battery has a BMS but should I hook both the solar charge wires and the pump load wires up to it or use this charge controller load wires (Huinetul 10Amp Solar LiFePo4)? The solar panel has an optimum operating current of 1.26 Amps vrs the pump draw of 0.7Amps so seems it could keep up with the pump discharge rate and keep the battery charged under full sun conditions?
Thanks in advance for any help with this!
