10A Solar Charge Controller

10A Solar Charge Controller

The 10A Solar Charge Controller is a vital component for anyone starting their solar journey. This intelligent device manages the power flowing from your solar panel to your battery, preventing the overcharging that can lead to battery swelling and permanent damage. Despite its small size, it packs a punch with Automatic 12V/24V Detection, making it compatible with the most common small-scale battery banks in Kenya.

Featuring an easy-to-read LCD Display, this controller provides real-time monitoring of your system’s voltage and charging status. It also includes Dual USB Ports, allowing you to charge your phone or power a small USB lamp directly from the controller—even if you don't have an inverter. It is a "fit-and-forget" solution designed to keep your batteries healthy and your lights on for years to come.
