The
specs I found a while back on the SP150 said they were 34V. I thought that was
strange, but I initially wanted a bunch of 150W panels. I went with Kyocera
120�s, and forgot about it until now. I just checked the specs again, and sure
enough: 34V. Have you measured the output of your
panels?

Hmm, I
purchased 24V panels, but so far so good!

You�ve
got 34V panels and a charge controller made for 12V, 24V, or
48V�
How is
that working?

I just
tested a couple of AP Totals and they were drawing .37 Amps at 14.1 Volts. I
found them more power efficient than expected, and calculated that a single
12V, 80aH battery would be more than enough to handle a few days of cloudiness
and keep the depth-of-discharge to under 50%. You can look at the Concord
PVX-690T AGM for about $120 or you can get a 12V lead-acid for under
$70.

For those of us
who're going to be using these on battery power (solar charged), actual
current figures would be REALLY helpful.
Thanks
