[QUOTE="MattR, post: 187214, member: 5120"] Just a note for you regarding the solar panel. When disconnecting the battery wires from the panel, make sure you UNPLUG it by the solar panel first. At least mine had that option, hopefully yours does too. I forgot one day and the wires touched and the sun was shining nice and bright. Ended up replacing the charge controller because of the wires touching. I also did not have any fuse installed in my system either, which may have stopped the controller from frying on me. Just one mistake I made and hope by sharing you can avoid making the same. Matt [/QUOTE]
