Hello Ghurd,
Thanks a lot for the reply !
As I understand, monitoring the battery voltage means if 12V battery voltage output is 12.2V (or any limit I set) or higher, then the extra power coming from the sources (solar, wind, etc) are diverted to the Dump Load.
When you say monitoring battery voltage, do you mean Battery's output (12V) or Charging voltage (input from Panel/Wind turbine, etc) ?
I ask this question because, the wind turbines could generate voltages of up to 40V peak and connecting this directly to the battery may damage the battery.
Does the Load controller circuit (Ghurd controller) handle this additional voltage above the typical charging voltage of 14.4V needed to charge a 12V Lead Acid Battery ?
Please do respond. Your response is highly appreciated.
Thanks much !
