HI All; Anyone heard of or tried these controllers: https://genasun.com/products-store/mppt-solar-charge-controllers/golf-cart-solar-charge-boost-controllers/
They seem like a great idea: use a single 60 cell module to charge a 36v or 48v golfcart battery pack. The good old 60 cell (39" x 65") is a good fit for a golf cart roof, without becoming a head banger. Unfortunately the Genasun seems to be obsolete before even getting any where; it is limited to 8 amps of input current which is less than 250 watts for a typical 60 cell module. (I can't even find any modules that low a power now) We called the manu, and their support said we could only push the controller to maybe 8.2 amps.....I've tried other layouts with 12 v modules, and it either doesn't fit or negates any benefits from this controller.
As always, thanks in advance for your input. -- R.Ray Walters CTO, Solarray, Inc Nabcep Certified PV Installer, Licensed Master Electrician Solar Design Engineer 303 505-8760 _______________________________________________ List sponsored by Redwood Alliance List Address: RE-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org Change listserver email address & settings: http://lists.re-wrenches.org/options.cgi/re-wrenches-re-wrenches.org List-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/re-wrenches@lists.re-wrenches.org/maillist.html List rules & etiquette: www.re-wrenches.org/etiquette.htm Check out or update participant bios: www.members.re-wrenches.org
