Charge Regulators / Controllers  

charge controlers

Charge controllers or otherwise known as regulators are similar to a voltage regulator in a car and are used to regulate the voltage and current from the solar panel or wind turbine to the battery to avoid battery damage from overcharge or being over-discharged  .

Charge Controllers (Regulators) 
                                                            
Charge controllers are similar to a voltage regulator in a car and are used to regulate the voltage and current from the solar panel to the battery and avoid battery damage .
If there is no regulation of the charge the batteries could be damaged from the following -
1. Overcharging by diverting power away when fully charged.
2. Deep discharging by switching off the DC appliances when the battery voltage drops very low.  
Charge controllers are not usually required with small trickle charge panels (1-5Watt panels) or if the panel generates <1/60 the of the rated battery capacity per day.
 
To calculate the Amp rating of the charge controller uses the following calculation.
Watts /Volts = Amps  
100 watts / 12V = 8.3Amps  
100W solar panel charging a 12V battery should be regulated using a charge controller rated at 8.3 Amps or greater.
