batter voltage. (It is recommended to
leave the voltage display off when not
monitoring the battery voltage since it
consumes energy.) Twelve (12) Volt
batteries should charge to 13 Volts
for a full charge. If the intent is to
stop charging the battery, disconnect
the solar panels from the charge
regulator. Note: The charge regulator
provides “over charge” protection. If
the battery voltage is higher than 14.5
V, the regulator will shut off charge
from solar panel.
4. The Regulator (2) provides the
following protection while charging:
a. Over-discharge protection: When
the electricity level of the battery
(not included) goes too low (below
11 volts) the Regulator (2) will
automatically shut off the power
output to prevent damage to the
battery (not included). If this occurs,
stop using the battery (not included)
and charge it until the Voltage
display shows 13 volts.
b. Overcharge protection: If the
electricity level on the battery (not
included) goes too high (above
14.5 volts) the Regulator (2) will
automatically shut off power input to
prevent damage to the battery (not
included).
c. Overload protection: If the output
current exceeds 4 amps the fuse
(See FIGuRe 1) will blow to prevent
damage to the controller in the
Regulator (2). If this occurs, have a
qualified service technician replace
the fuse.
note: The On/Off switch of the charge
regulator must be in the “On”
position to activate the three
protection functions mentioned
above.
using the 12 volt Lights and
Accessories.
note: The Charge Regulator must be in
“ON” position at all times.
1. If the 12 volt Lights (4) aren’t
already attached to the sockets on
the end of each Light Wire (7), gently
snap them in.
2. Plug the other end of the Light
Wire (7) into any one of the 12 Volt
DC outlets on the Regulator (2) as
shown in FIGuRe 2.
3. To turn off the lights, unplug the Light
Wire (7) from the 12 Volt DC outlet
on the Regulator (2). You may plug
in the other 12 volt Light (4) to either
12 Volt DC outlet.
note: This system can also be used to
power other small 3 Volt DC, 6 Volt
DC, and 9 Volt DC small appliances.
