JohnJ Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 I have three ATVs and it seems logical that I should be able to charge and maintain those machines over the winter using a single solar panel. How should I proceed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How should I proceed? Hello @JohnJSince most ATVs are run off of 12V batteries, we offer an all-in-one 20W battery maintainer kit that is perfect for 12V batteries.

0 JohnJ Posted January 19, 2023 Author Share Posted January 19, 2023 I only see one hookup to a battery. How do I connect three separate ATVs to one solar panel and charge all at the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you multiply your total amp hours by 2, you'll find out how many watts you'll need in terms of solar panels. Then you'll need a charge controller and battery clamps.

0 Solidox Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 When you hook the batteries up to charge make sure that negative comes off one battery to the lead and lead on positive comes off other so they charge at same rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Solidox Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 This is how you should be charging batteries in parellel so that voltage and charge remains equal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
