GETTING THE MOST OUT OF YOUR KIT
The charge controller displays the battery level in terms
of voltage.
We have included this handy table that helps you convert
from battery voltage to battery percentage.
The voltage will be higher than 25.5V when there is
charge coming in from the solar panels. So if the battery
voltage is showing as higher than 25.5V and there is less
than 5 amps going into the batteries, the batteries will be
at 100% charge.
To get the most life out of your batteries they should not be discharged lower than 50%.
You can check the state of charge of the batteries on the charge controller. Make sure the charge
controller is on this screen pictured above by pressing the SELECT button. The screen will display BATT
on the left-hand side.
