So I need to build a voltage regulator that will charge a extra battery that I have with some solar panels it asks for at least 24v and 2.5 amps. I had made a voltage regulator that is regulating the voltage at 24v when I plug it in to a power supply but when u put it on the solar panels out side it only gives me 7 to 9 volts and only 300mA or so and thats not nearly enough to charge the batter any suggestions?? Or has any one built a circuit that could support the 24V and 2.5 amps that I need, the solar panels give me 27-29 votls but i dont think its giving me the current i need once under load, Pleas help. Thanks.
