Oh No ! I bought a Mppt Solar Controller
I don't believe it ! I bought it and I don't really even want it ! I was sure this would go for more than 12 bucks. Fooled me, oh well. Whats w/ links not working ?

No more results for now. Only thing missing is what it does when the batt reaches full (which is kind of important! :) )
Never quite got there in my test. It should drop to Float or just quit charging until batt voltage falls to a low set point and then resume charging and keep doing that to maintain the battery.
The manual mentions a LED going to off when "charging stops" or some such wording, so suspect it will do it that way.
O&S, you could check that yourself easily enough if you have a full battery to put it on. I won't have full batts like that for another couple weeks at least.
BFL,
Some times I get tired of battery posts BUT then I just open and take a look see. I've used lot's of paper printing out your posts.
At this stage of he game, I'm not able to get around like a young buck in the woods after something. Sooo, these threads are a God send. I by-passed the LED stories for years. Now, Thanks to you guys all, I almost daily also visit EBay. ~~ First Gens,Solar, then batteries and on to controllers and now to LED's Perhaps I need to look for warehouse space.
Rich,
You started this thread. It just may last forever. Plenty of great stuff has come out of it.
Carry on folks,
O$S
