Fivestar 10A PWM Solar Controller (12V/24V)
This 10A PWM Solar Charge Controller, which provides dependable charge control for 12V or 24V lead acid batteries, is intended for modest off-grid solar systems. It ensures effective battery performance and system lifespan with its four-stage PWM charging mechanism and built-in safety protections.
Key Features:
- Automatic Voltage Detection: Identifies and switches between 12V and 24V systems.
- Advanced Charge Management: Integrated 4-stage PWM charging system with Bulk, Boost, Float, and Equalization stages.
- User-Friendly Display: Digital display with memory feature and one-button setup for simple setup.
- Many layers of protection include defense against overload, reverse polarity, open circuits, and short circuits.
- Integrated USB Port: 5V/3A USB output for powering mobile devices or low-voltage peripherals.
- Timer & Light Sensor: Provides light automation for solar lighting applications (only off-grid systems).
