Hi guys. Just got my 100w panel installed in my shed for almost a week now. I measured the float voltage for my flooded batteries at 13.2v for the last three days. I measured the voltage coming from the solar panel and it's at 20.2 v average with good sun exposure. Is this float voltage normal?

Way more info is needed to answer your questions.....
What charge controller do you have? What battery setting do you have it set on? |

13.2 is correct after it's backed down from boost 14.2 to 14.8....
I'm sure someone will chime in with the correct specs for the wanderer...

Ok. Thank you. I was just reading the manual and it stated 13.8v float voltage.
Does anyone with this charge controller get the stated float charge?

Sent from my SM-A520W using Tapatalk Based on your selected battery setting, 13.2V Float seems to be correct and in line with the Wanderer 30 Flooded Battery profile. -Renogy Team Attachments:
