Hi all! I was unhappy with my 15 dollar charge controller so I upgraded to a Victron 75/15 Mppt Controller with a Bluetooth attachment so I can adjust and monitor it on my phone or pad.
The other controller was putting too much voltage into the battery all the time so I was worried the new battery I just purchased may be damaged by it when I put it in.
Here is the new controller and setup and a pad monitoring the battery pics
Controller
Setup with new UPG 1210000 100 Amp Hour Battery
And the new charge voltage pattern
Here is the old controller's charge pattern for comparison-
you can see all the spikes and over 16 volt runs- new one is much more controlled! Much better for battery life!!!
Thanks for checking in- new flooring project is waiting on flooring on order from Lumber Liquidators and should arrive in two weeks.
