Excellent point. The panel might be rated as one appropriate for a 24V system, meaning it will be more like 29V, but it's more typical to quote the open circuit voltage. If that's the case, it'll be inadequate for 2 batteries in series. Depending how big it is, it might be better to charge the 2 batteries in parallel instead. With a charge controller, of course.A 24V panel is unable to fully charge 2 x 12V batteries in series.
That should be fine. as long as the controller is meant to charge batteries with your chemistry and nominal voltage. In other words if it is meant for 24V lead acid, and that's what you have, it'll be fine....is there any consideration when hooking the 24 v regulator up to. Two 12 volt batteries that are wired in series...
Hello friend were you able to find the right way to do it.. I am applying similar series batteries so please help me..I have a 24V solar panel, that I want to hook up to 2 x 12V batteries in series to give me 24 V. The panel is 15m away from the batteries- I'm not sure what size wire to use?
Wayneh already covered it well in post #13.Thank you for helping me with that, is there any consideration when hooking the 24 v regulator up to. Two 12 volt batteries that are wired in series rb and others I am happy about the wire size now thank you again
