It just dawned on me that I may have been barking up the wrong tree I only have the one NSM5 to connect, I could hook this up to the parallel segment of my battery bank and get only 12v while the rest of the installation that's connected in series gets 24v. Do you think this will work? Don't really have to worry about the NSM5 running down the battery cause load is low and the cable run is under 10m so the voltage drop from 12v will be negligible
So this is how it would be: 24v solar panel connected to 24v charge controller with 4 x 12v batteries connected in a 2x2 series/parallel array. cable connected to the parallel segment of battery bank (theoretically giving 12v to the NSM5), rest of the load connected to the charge controller at 24v What do you think? - - - *Olufemi Adalemo* M: +234-803-5610040 M: +234-809-8610040 [email protected] On Fri, Oct 12, 2012 at 8:18 PM, Kristian Hoffmann <[email protected]>wrote: > Ya, it should be +24 on pins 4,5 and -24/comm on 7,8.
