The Solar Charge Controller (also known as Solar Regulator) is an essential device in any off-grid or hybrid solar system. It regulates the voltage and current from solar panels to batteries, preventing overcharging, over-discharging, and extending battery life. Available in PWM (cost-effective for small systems) and MPPT (high-efficiency for maximum energy harvest, up to 30% more in varying conditions).

Ideal for Nigerian homes and businesses dealing with unreliable grid power – protects your investment in solar panels and batteries.

Key Features:

• Overcharge, over-discharge, short-circuit, and reverse polarity protection.
• LCD display for real-time monitoring (voltage, current, battery status).
• Temperature compensation for optimal charging.
• Supports lead-acid, gel, and lithium batteries.
• MPPT models: Advanced tracking for higher efficiency in cloudy or hot weather.
• Durable build with heat sinks for reliable performance in tropical climates.

Common Types & Applications:

• PWM: Best for small systems (e.g., lighting, fans, phone charging).
• MPPT: Ideal for larger setups (home backup, pumps, appliances).
• Used in residential solar installations, street lights, and boreholes.

Popular Capacities & Specifications:

• 10A-60A common for home use (12V/24V/48V auto-detect).
• PWM Efficiency: ~75-80% | MPPT Efficiency: ~95-99%.
• Dimensions (typical 30A-60A): 150-200mm x 100-150mm x 50mm.
• Weight: 0.5-2kg.
