Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What battery type is this MPPT solar charger module compatible with?
A: This solar charger control board is specifically designed for 3.7V 18650 ternary lithium batteries. It manages the full charge cycle — including MPPT optimisation from the solar panel — to keep your 18650 cells charged safely and efficiently.
Q: Can I connect the solar panel and Type-C input at the same time?
A: No — only one input port should be connected at any given time. You may choose between the solar panel terminal, the DC 5.5×2.1mm port, or the Type-C port based on the power source available to you, but simultaneous multi-input connection is not supported.
Q: What can I power with the 5V USB output on this module?
A: The USB output provides a stable 5V / 2.1A supply, which is suitable for charging most smartphones, portable Bluetooth speakers, small fans, and other USB-powered devices commonly used in off-grid or outdoor setups.
Q: What is the maximum solar panel wattage I can use with this board?
A: The module supports solar panels rated between 10W and 30W with an input voltage range of 5V to 18V and a maximum input current of 2.5A. Using a panel within these parameters will ensure optimal performance and protect the module's circuitry.
