Hey everyone, I need some advice. I recently set up a small solar system at home. My panels are 24V, but my battery bank is 12V. At first, I thought I could just connect them directly, but I realized that might damage my batteries or waste a lot of energy.

So I bought a DC-to-DC MPPT charge controller from ( https://offgridstores.com/) to handle the voltage difference and make sure my batteries charge efficiently. I’m new to this, though, and I want to make sure I’m using it the right way.

Has anyone dealt with a setup like this? Any tips or things I should watch out for to keep the batteries safe and get the most out of my panels?
