General Information The Renogy 100W & 50W Eclipse Lightweight Suitcase combines highly efficient monocrystalline solar panels with a 10A PWM charge controller to create an easy-to-use, ‘plug and play’ system. This system is specifically designed for mobile off-grid applications, where space and weight limitations are abundant.
Included Components 10A PWM Charge Controller Regulates the voltage and amperage coming from the solar panel to properly charge the battery bank. MC4 to Alligator Clips w/ Fuse Used for connecting charge controller to battery. The entire cable from the charge controller to the alligator clips measures 3.3 feet with an in- line fuse of 10A...
Controller Operation Step 1: Connect the battery. If the connection is correct, the controller screen lights up; otherwise, check whether the connection is correct. Step 2: Connect the solar panel. If sunlight is present and strong enough (the solar panel voltage is greater than battery voltage), the sun icon on the LCD screen is on;...

Mode Flashing Mode Flashing Load Mode Long Short press the press the button button Set the needed mode Load Mode Long press the button to save the setting Five Load Working Modes 1. Pure light control (0): When sunlight disappears, and the light intensity drops to the starting point, the controller initiates a one-minute delay (settable) to confirm the starting signal, and then switches on the load for operation.
Manually Switching On/Off Load When the load mode is set to 15 (manual mode), short press the button (non-setting mode) in any interface to switch on or off the load. Load switched on Load switched off Short press the button Note: As load start is a type of soft start, display of the load icon on the LCD screen will be delayed after the load is switched on.
Everything is connected Check the rated battery voltage. The LCD will not display on correctly, but the LCD on the the charge controller unless there is at least 9V coming from controller does not turn on the battery bank. Maintenance For best controller performance, it is recommended that these tasks be performed from time to time.

Charging Parameters Glossary Equalization Voltage—equalization voltage is a corrective over-charge of the battery. The user should consult their battery manufacturer regarding specific battery equalization capacity. This parameter sets the equalization voltage to set the battery at when it reaches the equalization state.
