Pete's Pop Up
New Member
I have a roof mounted Go Power 100 watt solar panel with 10 amp PWM controller (Forest River's choice in solar) and a Renogy 200 watt suitcase panel with a 20 amp PWM controller. Because we cannot make any adjustments to the roof top panel to maximize solar capture we use bo.th set ups. My question is, can I use both simultaneously to 1- Hybrid Gel AGM 100 amp hour battery? If not, my plan would be to purchase a 3 position battery selector switch to select which system is providing power to the battery.
The trailer also has "Solar on the Side" which is an SAE plug that appears to be wired back to the RV's solar controller. My intention would be to rewire that as an independent input to the battery or to the battery selector switch. Currently I have to remove the battery cover and use alligator clips on the battery terminals to add power from the Renogy system
I am open to other thoughts or ideas. Thanks for the help.
