Tools and Hardware Reviews of HQRP Solar 10A Charge Power Controller / Regulator 12V / 24V 10 Amp with LED Indicator plus HQRP UV Chain / UV Radiation Health TesterCustomer Review: Initial Review...so far so good! Summary: 5 Stars
This HQRP controller allowed me to combine devices that were never supposed to be part of any solar package.
They are:
5 Watt solar panel from Harbor Freight (trickle charger)
Car battery (new, but unused)
Generic 400 Watt Inverter
They are all playing together nicely with the HQRP charge controller. The car battery, tho new, had been sitting out of a car for nearly a year. I connected everything together, and left it alone for a week. The controller had risen the battery's voltage from 10.5 to 12.8V (a half-volt higher than what the panel alone had achieved). My 5 watt panel barely pushes enough milliamps to overcome the battery's internal resistance, so the controller is definitely doing its job.
The LED Indicators follow the Legend which is silkscreened on the cover. The "Load" out terminals do turn ON and OFF with a push of the button, also indicated by a red LED,( You can see at a glance if the Load terminals are enabled). I haven't yet tested to see whether it shuts off at Low Voltage Disconnect, that is on my next visit. The screw terminals are solid. I like the fact that one can use a 10 gauge wire-I did.
Overall, I am happy with the way the HQRP controller allows a more flexible power pack in my remote shed. Now I am budgeting to upgrade the rest of the parts to make a really useful power station. Take care.
Description of HQRP Solar 10A Charge Power Controller / Regulator 12V / 24V 10 Amp with LED Indicator plus HQRP UV Chain / UV Radiation Health TesterHQRP Solar Charge Controllers are high quality, efficient and reliable Solar Power Regulators. They are perfect for rural electrification system. They offer a lot of possibilities and benefits. Regulations point: 14.4 Volts; Low voltage Disconnect: 11.1V Volts; Low voltage Reconnect: 13.1 Volts; Microcontroller digital accuracy; Type of Charging: Series PWM & stat of charge(SOC); 4 Stages: equalization, PWM, Boost and Float, temperature compensated charging; Electronic protections: Short circuit and over current-solar and load; Reverse current at night; Limits high voltage to protect loads; Lighting protection; Tropicalization Conformal coated printed circuit board; Terminals For wire sizes to 6mm2; Self-consumption: 6mA maximum. Solar Controller supports up to 150W of 12V Solar panels and up to 300W of 24V Solar panels. For 12V solar panels, please, use battery and load for 12V solar systems (For 24V solar panels, please, use battery and load for 24V solar systems). HQRP UV Chain / UV Radiation Tester: To know the Solar UV Index, it is enough to compare the colorchange with the 4 standard colors around. Very light purple: low intensity, UV index 1-2. Sun-protection not necessary. Light purple: medium intensity, UV index 3-5. Sun-protection is recommended. Purple: strong intensity, UV index 6-7. Sun-protection is necessary. Dark purple: very strong intensity, UV index 8-11. This tester shows you the level of UV radiation and helps you protect your eyes and skin from negative sunlight effect.
