6 FAQs about [Solar charge controller with shore power]
Can a solar charge controller work with shore power?
(CC starts to squeal and blink, telling you "turn it off now or I will do it for you"). Apparently a Solar Charge Controller is just that - a Solar charge controller. It's not designed to deal with shore power in any voltage. Finally I relented.
What is a solar charger controller?
A solar charger controller is a device that charges batteries and runs loads from solar power. It includes an aluminium panel and features switched LED lights and an automatic 35 degree thermostat that controls a fan to cool the heat sink on the solar controller. It has the capacity to run fridges, lights, and power.
What is a smartsolar charge controller?
Victron SmartSolar MPPT charge controllers are intelligent devices that maximize energy-harvest by driving current to achieve a full charge in the shortest possible time. They offer easy programming of charging profiles to match all battery chemistries using the VictronConnect Bluetooth app.
Does solar work with shore power?
This even works! However, there is a major issue. Solar only works when there is sun, obviously, and when I get to plug in, I'd like to use shore power for charging quickly and well (2 or 3 stage process).
Are there any DC-DC shore Chargers?
