You may already know this, but just in case:
Don't forget that if you have a 100 watt solar panel going "into the battery" and are using 150 watts of power "from the battery", you won't be "charging the battery with the solar panel". So, along with making sure things are connected properly and working properly, also make sure you're not using more battery power than the solar system is putting into the battery...
Having a "solar charging system" doesn't mean that it's "always in the adding power mode".... If you're taking out more power out of your battery than the solar system is capable of putting into your battery, you won't be charging anything.
