I am going to mount this Victron 75/10 Solar Charge Controller on the firewall of my boat. I have a 50 watt solar panel I will be using to keep my battery topped off while in storage.
The app was easy to download and after 2 minutes it was done updating itself. The charge controller only took a few minutes to install. In my testing of this solar charge controller over the last two weeks, it has worked better then expected. I am very happy with it and will only be buying Victron in the future.
I am using the "streetlight" function and the "load" connection to run a 10 watt led light bulb while the boat is in storage. I keep the boat on the side of my house and there is no light there. Now, using the boat's battery, the light comes on at night and goes off at sunrise. It only drains the battery a little during the night. Then, the next day, the solar panel charges the battery up to full and maintains it in float mode perfectly.
By the way, I'm using the QILIPSU Hinged Cover Junction Box, - 150 x 150 x 90mm/5.9" x 5.9" x 3.5"(L*W*H) size box. The box seems like it was custom built to fit my Victron 75/10 Solar Charge Controller. It is watertight, made of thick plastic and has stainless steel clasps. Price was very good for the quality.
