Description
The brains behind any solar powered system is the solar charge controller. The controller is what talks to the solar panel, the battery, and the load.
The controller ensures that the battery is charging and stops charging it (or them) when they are full. It also can have a smart system that turns on and off the load (i.e. lights) when it gets dark. The controller may also be programmed if is has the functionality to do so.
This controller has many features for its compact size (and price). It is a full feature controller that not only controls the charging, it also can be programmed to turn on at sunset and stay on for a programmed period of time. As well, it also has load protection and if there are any problems with any component in the system it will protect your investment from overload damage.
