This is what I keep on my already fully charged battery to keep it topped off and in good working order. Keep in mind that this is just a trickle charger to keep a fully charged battery going. It's only been a month since I started using it, but it seems to be working well; I use a multimeter to check the battery, and it is always fully charged after a week or two. I'll update my review if I run into any issues.
In the absence of a controller I'm pleased with the SAE connection (it matches my camper). br>However, if you want to run something like lights, a refrigerator, or something similar, this will not suffice. With a solar controller, get something with at least 80 watts. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> For the past few months, I've had this hooked up to my camper. Temperatures are expected to range between - and -. In Michigan, the temperature ranges between 5 and 45 degrees. I wanted to see if the battery was still charged, so I checked it. After disconnecting the solar panel, everything was ready to go. 2 volts. Cool. br>I gave this panel to my in-laws as a recommendation. Storage regulations for the winter. They take their battery out and put it in a charger.
I own a truck, but I don't use it very often. Over the last five years, I've probably driven it 4000 miles. I couldn't use a trickle charger with it, so I bought this because I had gone through three batteries in the previous five years. They'd lose all of their charge and be unable to hold it. I've had it for about 6 months and it's been fantastic. My truck now starts up every time I try to start it, and the voltmeter in my truck indicates that the battery is fully charged each time. This performs admirably in terms of battery maintenance. Despite the fact that the instructions state that the car should not be started while plugged in, both my son and I have successfully done so. If you're not going to connect it to your battery, you'll need a "live" charging/cigarette lighter plug. This is exactly what I've done, and it's been extremely successful. I positioned it so that it receives the majority of the day's sunlight, and it has proven to be very effective. It's a good investment because it keeps my battery charged, which means I won't have to buy a new one every few years.
Until we used the Suner Power Charger, we had trouble keeping our RV batteries charged while in storage. It was easy to connect and use. Perfect solution at an affordable price, and extremely simple to set up. Couldn't be more pleased!.
11- 2018br>This panel is a lot of fun to use. br>I connect the PC fan to the windows and mount it. br>It'll keep my room cool. It also serves as a charger for my old battery. br>Because my stairs are dark even during the day, I use an old battery to power a small led light. br>It helps me a lot that my light switch is on upstairs. I don't have to call anyone to turn on the light when I get home.
9- 2018br>br>I have a battery kit, but it's too big and heavy. Whether or not you travel frequently This could save you some time. br>This one is easy to carry, use, and store, and it doesn't take up a lot of room. br>Try it on a dead battery; it wakes it up. However, I did not test how long it would take to charge completely. br>I like the fact that the suction cups are simple to mount on windows.
The panel is well-built and functional. The charge controller I'm using is from Battery Tender, and it's great. The only thing I can think of to improve it is to use a thicker wire with a strain relief where it exits the panel. Otherwise, everything appears to be in order.
Something was required to keep the batteries in my snow machines charged. The cord is long enough to reach both batteries without difficulty through the vent on my trailer. I'll go into the trailer once a month and change the panel cord from one machine to the other. To keep the panel at a 45° angle, I made a small frame. I still need to screw into the roof and mount a small L bracket. br>If anything changes, I'll revisit it.
This solar charger has a solid feel to it. It also includes a tester (a light-up connector) and an extra piece with a connector on one end and an open wire on the other. so that people (if they know how) can make more connections br>br>There are (clear) instructions on how to test the unit included in the instructions. There are a few minor exceptions: br>br> My unit's output consistently exceeds the set parameters (as evidenced by photos and videos). I say minor because I don't know enough to say whether these "infractions" make a difference in the grand scheme of things, especially since there are solar chargers with significantly higher output. br>br>This is the second of these types of solar chargers I've purchased. The first (supposed to be number one) 4w) consistently performs tests that are lower than the specified parameter.
