When using those calculators, do you use 12 volts or 17 volts which is the output voltage from the panels to the controller.
Before getting into this, you need to tell what controller you have or going to have - PWM or MPPT. And - what panels, and how many. Or, at least - what you are going to achieve in terms of wattage and/or costs, and then we'll tell you what controller you need.

The wires from the panel to the controller are the longest length. It's going to be the panel output right? And from the controller to the batteries is going to be the limit set in the controller like 14.6 volts bulk charge and 15.5 volts equalization????
Yes. This and few (several?) other limits.
