Solar panels and AGM or solar panels with li ?? I have no clue but it looks like Iternerant1 is showing us some good info.
I'd be curious if there is some sort of fast charge advantage when using solar panels and li????
Here are some readings from Nov 2018. It's not only about how fast it can charge but how solar can help along the way, if need be throw a quick hold over charge.
The outside temps where in 32f +/- range. There was no supplemental heating going into the compartment other than what was generated by the IC, I added 2" foam board on the walls where I could. This also gives an idea of what my late fall to early spring PSOC living on the batteries are like when solar charging is shorter time period.
Solar production during that period. The morning SOC is read after there is power being produced by solar, evening is read when solar production has stopped and using batteries. Times are in military format.(0536 is 5:36am, 1730 is 5:30pm)
As 3 Tons said getting to full really isn't needed or go out of your way charging. ;)
