Charge Controllers

A charge controller is a device that manages the flow of electrical energy from a solar panel to a battery. Its primary function is to prevent the battery from overcharging, which can damage it or reduce its lifespan. Additionally, it stops the battery from discharging back into the solar panel at night. Essentially, it ensures the battery charges safely and efficiently, maintaining optimal performance and longevity of your solar energy system. Think of it as a traffic controller, directing power to where it needs to go while protecting your equipment.
