This is for the case of resistance between the panel and controller. The effects of a long run with PWM controller between the controller and battery bank is not part of this investigation. That experiment is “left as an exercise to the reader”. Any volunteers???
How would this vary between MPPT and PWM, assuming same input voltage and same input amperage coming out of the devices to the battery? Obviously, the thicker the wire and shorter the run, being DC current, the lower the losses of watts/voltage and amperage. This is of concern if you use long runs of wire between portable solar cells and your batteries, I would assume?
