2pm in California 78 degrees full sun. 10watt renogy $36 solar panel.. This thing is amazing
19.9 volts!!!
Im impressed
Not to bust your bubble here, but the voltage is meaningless. You could easily have a 1 watt panel at 100 volts if you wanted-not that such a thing would be practical.
What matters is POWER. ie Watts. It's a 10 watt panel, and enough to maybe charge a phone here and there. It isn't enough to run a fridge or any significant power consumer. It is enough to trickle charge your battery-but at less than 1 amp. More realistically you'll get 0.5 amps on a good day. SO if your 18Ah battery is half discharged, it takes 18 hours of ideal sun to charge the battery. That's like 3 days of sun.
Still, you'll learn the basics of power management, and when it's time to upgrade, you'll know just watt to do. A bigger box, a bigger panel, bigger wires and a bigger battery and you can run a fridge indefinitely.
