In a cloudless day, with the sun directly overhead, my calculations (based on the “typical” stated outputs numbers and not the “ideal” laboratory numbers) show I have the potential to bring in around 60 amps (at 12V). It is hard to know the loss from the solar controller or the wire runs so I was excited to see what would happen in the real world.
The picture above was around 10:00am on a sunny day. I’m pretty happy with 51 amps. I think with direct afternoon sun 60 amps is still possible.
