Afternoon to everyone,

Just a quick question regarding specs on solar panels. For example the voltage at load is 16.5 and 4.8 amos for a 64watt panel. If you were to then put a voltage regulator between panel and battery, say 14.1 volts regulated, would the may amps also be lower as you are droping the voltage.

I was told a few days ago that the may amps is at 12 volt but that seemed strange to me, or is it normal for the 4.8 amps as stated to be at 12 volt which would mean I would bet the full benifit of the panel.

Cheers

Chris
