If both panels are rated at the same maximum voltage then you ll get maximum output.
How to connect 2 batteries to a solar panel.
One set to connect to the trolling motor batter on the front of the boat and one set for the starting battery.
In the event you have more than one battery connect them in parallel.
Then run wires from the battery to the charge connector making sure to match the positive and negative poles.
To power a dual battery system you ll need to connect the panels in parallel.
Wire solar panels in parallel by connecting the positive wire of the first solar panel to the positive terminal of the second panel and so on.
To charge a battery with a solar panel connect a charge connector to the solar panel.
Same applies to two or more solar panels.
Connecting two solar panels in parallel.
I have a single 50watt panel with a 10 amp controller.
Connect the negatives to the negatives and positives to the positives.
My question for everyone is can i run two lines from the battery connections.
The series connection of two identical batteries allows to get twice the rated voltage of the individual batteries keeping the same capacity.
Divide the wattage of the solar panel by the voltage of the battery to get the number of amps your charge connector needs to handle.
Following this example where there are two 12v 200ah batteries connected in series we will have a total voltage of 24v volts and an unchanged capacity of 200ah ampere hour.
To wire two or more solar panels and batteries in parallel simply connect the positive terminal of solar panel or battery to the positive terminal of solar panel or battery and vise versa respectively as shown in the fig below.
Connect the negative wires together in the same fashion and the wires off the last panel in the parallel circuit are connected to the battery.
There are a few charge controllers that have now added the default option of having two battery banks.
The two banks are charge separately using the same controller and solar panels.
