eBook immediate DOWNLOAD - A full years' research about solar charge controllers that convert energy from a solar panel and pass it to a battery bank installed in a campervan. 

You should not connect a solar panel directly to a battery.  The solar panel has no on/off switch and no regulating components.  It will simply over charge and ruin the battery.  A solar charge controller is the device connected between the solar panel(s) and the battery bank.  The sun's energy, captured by the solar panel is sent through the solar charge controller to a battery.  The battery stores the energy until needed.

 

The solar charge controller uses a circuit of PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) or MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) technology.  Systems that supply over 200 watts of solar power use the MPPT method.  A solar charge controller is sized for the number of volts coming into the device and the number of amps being sent to the battery.  When connecting the solar charge controller it is recommended to connect the battery to the unit before connecting the solar panels to the unit.  Solar panels have no on / off switches.  Once the panels are in the sun they are generating electric power.  The power needs an awaiting destination.   Campervan builders, installing solar panels on the roof of the campervan, often cover the panels, blocking the sun, until the solar charge controller and battery are connected.
