DIY Off Grid Solar Power Series, Part 5

Things aren’t always watt (pun) they seem, especially when it comes to solar charge controllers.  Join us in part 5 of the Tin Hat Ranch’s DIY Off Grid Solar Series where we talk about the two popular types of charge controllers, PWM and MPPT, and the how they work with your solar system.  Your decisions here can directly affect your wiring decisions, which was the subject of the last video.  If you missed it, here is the last video.
If you just stumbled across this series, you may wish to go back to the beginning, it’s the best place to start

In this video, we talked about the Renogy 40 Amp MPPT Charge Controller and the Renogy 30 Amp PWM Controller.  If you’ve been following the series you will have noticed that quite a bit of the components are Renogy.  If you are ready to make a leap to solar, drop them a visit or give them a jingle.  They’ve been great to work with on this project.
