Solar Kit
Just received my kit. 2 100w panels with a 30a pwm controller. Hoping it will recharge my 2 GC2's. I am alone in the trailer and power use is min. Any thoughts?

So you are getting 14.9V at the battery on a 60w panel, at 3.1 amps?
Not really, during bulk the amp meter is steady but in PWM the meter is erratic.

The controller "controls" to taper the amps as battery SOC rises, which shows as the amps going up and down but to ever lesser amounts. That might be what you see as "erratic"
The ASC controller method has on/off so both voltage and amps go up and down. Makes you dizzy watching the Trimetric when that is going on.
