    Epever Tracer AN MPPT SCC understanding

    Thanks mate, I need to get something as right now I only have the LCD screen. Was thinking of getting a Bluetooth dongle, MT50 and the PC cable if that doesn't already come with the MT50. We are on the road in the van in eastern Europe so getting things delivered is a pain so if I'm going to do...

    Epever MPPT controller shows lower PV amps than multimeter reading at terminals on controller

    Epever MPPT controller shows lower PV amps than multimeter reading at terminals on controller

    Epever MPPT controller shows lower PV amps than multimeter reading at terminals on controller

    Could be! I imagine the controller measures Imp, our panels should be able to generate a max of 8.61A. With my multimeter I am setting it to DC current on the 20A setting and placing the the black lead on the screw on the PV negative terminal and the red lead on the screw on the PV positive...

    Epever MPPT controller shows lower PV amps than multimeter reading at terminals on controller

    Hi everyone, I have 2x 180W 20.9V/ 8.61A panels connected in series which feed an Epever tracer AN solar charge controller that feeds 2x 100Ah batteries. Yesterday at about 3pm in Albania I got the following readings: Reading 1 - At the panels (unplugged where they enter my vans roof and...
