Charg controller readout
Why is the charge controller readout showing a higher voltage (1.8 to 2.3) that what is measured at the
batteries
with a multimeter?
Is the charge controller showing the voltage coming from the
solar
or the
battery
voltage?

Re: Charg controller readout
Because you have a 0.2v drop between the
solar
controller and
batteries
? Seems normal with
current
flowing. Would be same voltage at night.
