i have 2 X 110ah leisure batteries fitted to my van (all factory wired).
I fitted last year a 100w 10A dual output (1 for leisure and 1 for cab battery) solar charger which connect into the PSU2007 unit on my van via manufacturer supplied cable. This has been set for 70/30% in favour of leisure batteries as it charges both of them as if they were one according to PSU manufacturer person.
What I want advice on is how good should this charge my leisure batteries. What current when charging (assuming very sunny) should I expect to get as is and also if I was to change the control unit to 20A would provide any benefit (Ie quicker charging) or do I need to add another 100w panel to make any gains. I have seen on he solar display the max current as 6.5A so as is 20A wouldn't be needed.
Is this set up suitable for 2 X 110 leisure batteries. I do weekends of rough camping relying only on leisure batteries and sun shine.
Just thinking of upgrading the system if anyone thinks it could be beneficial but wasn't sure what gains I could expect and what I actually need to upgrade.
Any words of wisdom appreciated.
Many Thanks.
Dave.
