if you could fit 2 then you're really cooking as it could possibly give enough charge back to offset the actual use depending on how long it's used and allowed to be parked in the sun.Ī pv(s) mounted on the top of the 4 wheeler would minimally take some of the strain off of the batteries' operating requirements and could keep the average soc at a higher point extending the life of the batteries.Īs to charging when back home, it will probably be impractical for an off grid charging station as that would limit you to driving it when it becomes dark out so if the grid is available then i suggest opting for a gt solar system that would use the grid itself kind of like a battery as you would pump power to it during the day (sell) and use it at night (buy back) to charge the 4 wheeler batteries. as a side benefit it will continue to charge while parked even though at a low rate of 5a/160ah=3.125%. (sun nearly overhead for good flat mount production) now the draw is 35a as it would be 40-5=35.

if you have a much higher number of cells the use of an mppt controller may be warranted.Īs an example (noting that i don't know what may be typical or specific to your draws) let's say you draw 40a when moving and you opt for an astroenergy 190w mono (noticing our host does not carry this 72 cell pv anymore) this pv and a charge controller would feed about 5a back into the batteries while you are out and about in full sun during the summer.

72 cells in series allows proper charging of a 24v battery bank and the use of a simpler and cheaper pwm controller. the pv would need at least 72 cells to charge a 24v battery bank or 2 pvs with at least that many cells total. this depends on if the 4 wheeler has a roof or not and if it can accommodate the dimensions posed by pv modules.

Re: Need help designing a 24 volt solar charger for a electric 4 wheelingĪn aside to full charging of your batteries by solar may be the supplementation to the batteries while being used.
