Hi all.
I came across this Forum while Googling for (and failing to find!) an answer to this question.
I'm looking at the specifications for various Charge Controllers to use with an off-grid solar system, but a lot of them seem to quote a value for the "Maximum Discharge Current" and it's often the same number as the maximum charge current (i.e. Max Charge Current = 20A, Max Discharge Current = 20A).
What does this number mean? Is it the maximum current that can be drawn from the Load output of the charge controller? If so, 20A at 12V isn't much use! But I can't think what else it could mean!
Can anyone help?
Thanks!
