Keep the array's open-circuit voltage from going over 150V, the panel current within 40A and the panel voltage above the battery voltage. Mount the controller close to the battery with short wires, in a well-ventilated, non-humid spot. It works with solar panels only, not a DC power supply. After changing battery settings, disconnect the solar panel and battery, then reconnect them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThis May Be A Good Fit If\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou run a 36V or 48V battery bank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour array is up to 2400W at 48V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want app monitoring without an add-on module\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCan I Use It With a Lithium Battery?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
