My Solar Panel Will Not Charge 24v Battery

If you have added extra wire or an extension to your lead wires you can measure the voltage at the end of these.

My solar panel will not charge 24v battery.

An important point to be noted here is that a 24v rating battery is not available in the market but you can create one by joining two 12v batteries in a series connection. This means that on that scenario the solar panel delivered 60 watts of power to charge the battery. So a 24v 140 watt solar panel at minimum up to a 24v 300 watt solar panel ideally is what would be needed. This means that the panel is not connected to either a battery or a charge controller.

Match up the male and female connectors with the opposite ones coming away from the solar panel and snap the mc4 connectors into place. Generally a 12v solar panel should be paired with a 12v battery and a 24v solar panel should be used with a 24v battery. For 24v trolling motor batteries it becomes even more difficult to recharge the battery pack with a solar panel. Depending on your solar panel size and type your lead wires can end on either bare wires or a quick connect plug as the ones as the ones shown.

Once you ve attached the input wires to the charge connector you should have 2 loose wires each ending in an mc4 connector. You can get the amount of energy it will provide the battery by multiplying 10 watts by 6 hours which will give you 60 wh. If you are using a group 27 to 31 battery you need a panel double the wattage of the 12 volt solar panels mentioned above. Your panel is rated at 12 volts and 5 watts.

Deb from gilbert ariz wants to know. How do we tell if the solar panel is charging the batteries on our 2002 motorhome. Gary bunzer aka the rv doctor re. Connect the wires from the controller to the solar panel.
