Greetings from infernally hot, yet conveniently sunny, Puerto Rico!
Is there a single device I can connect to the wires coming from panels and specify, like dial in, set, the current I can supply to other devices?
For example, panel --> "device" --> phone charging, 12v mini water pump, and other small devices.
My goal is to not have to use battery storage yet not wire panels directly to electronic devices, keeping the current within a manageable range, nothing big in terms of output.
I understand I am limited by sun hours, that's fine for my needs.
So far from the little I know about this tech I suspect a charge controller might be used as that "device". Or is such a thing done using several components?
