How are you able to charge your batteries if your only putting out 20+
Amps? Just curious, because I actually want to get into this sort of thing,
but it doesn’t seem like even with a small setup, your not getting enough
current to charge the 675Ah battery bank capacity.. I really want to get
into solar, but seems like you need alot of solar panels in parallel to
create the current needed to charge even a 100Ah battery.. It seems there’s
only about 6 hours of really good daylight in a typical day, that’s onyl
120Ah if your charging at 20 Amps an hour.

I noticed in this video after running a summer test the meter said 1600
watt hrs. and 59amp hours!!! THIS IS WRONG! it was 1600 watts yes, but it
only goes to double digit on amps so the true Amp Hour for this test is
159AH. At half day sun in Dec. So pretty darn good!!

can i measure the amount of amps the solar is putting into the battery by
wiring a multimeter in series with one wire of the battery and solar panel
or would this not work

Are you happy with the charge controller? With that charge control it says
it will take higher voltage and reduce it and give you more amps. Have you
tried it?

Im wondering if that meter is in series?…if so have You done a test for
voltage drop before and after the meter?….seems like awful skinny wire to
handle the 20 amps or so your panels produce?just wondering.

Nice, I have wanted to see three or more Renogy Solar panels working. Thank
you, great video.
