×12.5W How to test the solar panel Method 1: use a multi-meter Set your multi-meter to measure DC voltage and put the red probe on the red MC4 cable and the black probe on the black MC4 cable (this is the solar panel’s direct output), make sure the connections are secure. the open-circuit voltage should be displayed on your multi-meter and it should be around 17.6V-23V.
4×12.5W Method 2: use your solar generator To test if the solar panel is working with a solar generator with a built-in charge controller, connect the MC4 adapters that came with your solar generator and plug it in to the MC4 cables of the solar panel directly (Bypassing the charge controller). Turn your solar generator on and it should start charging from the solar panel.
4×12.5W How to test if the charge controller is working Step 1: Clamp the red battery clip to positive, black to negative and make sure the connection is secure. Make sure the solar panel MC4 cables are connected to the MC4 cables of the charge controller. Step 2: When all the connections are complete, the charging status indicator should light up if the solar is under direct sunlight AND the battery is connected to the charge controller.
4×12.5W Tip: The charge controller and the USB port will not respond unless it is connected to a battery! Always connect the battery first, then load (if applicable) and then the solar panel. For lights explanation, please check the Specifications section. What are you going to use it for 1. Charge solar generators 1.1.
4×12.5W 2. Charge your 12 Volt battery Battery Lead-acid Battery Lithium The solar panel kit is designed to charge a large range of batteries including Sealed, Flooded, GEL, AGM, Lithium, lead-acid battery and other deep cycle battery. The batteries are used as car battery, RV battery, boat battery and emergency back-up battery. Step 1: understand your battery: battery type, capacity and voltage Step 2: check the charge controller’s set up.

4×12.5W Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ) ACOPOWER is always open to customers with technical support, if you have any issues, please feel free to contact ACOPOWER by email at support@acopower.com Here we collected some frequently asked questions for reference: Q: What kind of battery can be charged by these solar modules A: 1. sealed lead-acid battery (Sealed) 2. colloidal lead-acid battery (Gel) 3.
4×12.5W Q: Can I use my own controller, or can I use MPPT charge controller? A: Yes, if you would like to do so, please remove the charge controller and use the solar panel with MC4 connectors to connect your own controller. Q: I connect the kit with my battery with red clamp to Positive and black clamp to Negative, why the lights of charge controller are not on? A: we suggest charging your car battery for the kit’s test. And then test your solar panel’s open circuit voltage and battery’s voltage.
