[QUOTE="MartinM, post: 465654, member: 10027"] Ok people, For once and for all, You will only get full wattage (amps) out of a panel when the batterie is almost completely empty (12.05Volt) 50% discharge. Or you have a fridge working it's a$$ off while charging a batterie. Fridge off and batterie charged almost fully, and the panel won't and can't deliver more watts/amps then the batterie can absorb. So in full sun tilted just right, a panel can deliver almost full wattage when there is a empty batterie or lots of power draw and almost nothing when there is no power draw and the batterie is full. Easy to test this yourself by switching the fridge on and then off and look for the current from the panel. Just my two cents (and yes i have tested it this way myself). :Y: [/QUOTE]
