Solar...

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a good diagram of how to add Solar MPPT to an existing RV setup. I don't want to lose my AC camper hookup, I just want to use the solar panel to keep the batter topped off while I'm away and don't have AC or Generator running.

Right now I hooked things now in parallel (connected my charge controller to the battery terminals, and left the existing battery connections there as they were from the factory). But my charge controller (Renogy Wanderer 30 PWM) doesn't seem to know what's going on with the battery / battery current when I unplug from shore power / generator.



Thanks,
Mike

Yea, well so I should have tried Microsoft diagnostic trick #1... Rebooted the charge controller and now it's working as it should. Grr....
