In what increments (Half amp, amps, every 5 amps, 10 amps etc) is the EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPT 500VDC 100A / MPPT100-48 HV adjustable?
History:
My system is functional but weird. I started with 300 free used Schott 235 Watt solar panels and I've been selling them to help fund the rest of the system. My utility company launched a pilot program for a generator input (they provided at no cost) that is a load side generator input (30 amp/ 240 volt) that prevents back feeding to the grid, and is mounted between the meter and my panel.
I found an EcoFlow Delta Pro Ultra at Costco with an 18kw battery pack on sale. After installing 12 solar panels on the slope behind my house - I spent maybe 15 minutes unboxing and plugging everything in. The L14-30 plug connects to the inverter / battery module and goes right into the utility provided generator input.
The EcoFlow has two solar inputs, high and low voltage, both with the same 15 amp limits. As paneled (12 panels) using Voc I am below the limit. If I run 2 strings of 10 panels in parallel, I will exceed the amp limitations slightly. I've read some forum comments stating Amps are pulled and Volts are pushed - so the Voltage is a hard limit and there is wiggle room.... so I checked with Ecoflow and they advised that nothing goes over limit.
Application:
Sooo... If I buy the EG4 Solar Charge Controller MPT 500VDC 100A / MPPT100-48 HV, can I use this between my solar panels and my EcoFlow, limiting the output Amperage to match my limits? Can I also maintain the corresponding voltage or does it all get throttled down to 48 v on the way out?
Thank you.
