So my panel is 330w with a rated open voltage rating (I think that's the right term) of either 58 or 62 volts. Either way on the absolute sunniest of days I've never seen it reach 60, in fact 56.8 is the record high for this panel.
so that being said I am poor and am trying to do this as cheap as possible. I live in a bare bones shipping container, if that clues you in to my situation.
so since any charge controller I come across that even comes close to handling that type of voltage is easily over $100. I can afford that. Hell the way I'm asking here I can't really afford but I'm going to try like hell.
so can I take a step down controller that goes from let's say 48v (they are rated to handle up to 63v from what I've seen) to 24v and wire that into a charge controller rated for up to 32v?
if not why? And what's your best money saving idea on how to do this
