Anyone had one of these solar panels?

15.7 is too high for a regular bulk voltage point and will damage the batteries. It my be your regulator has an automatic equalize function that can be changed, but its more likely the regulator is defective or the multimeter is incorrect.
Check the voltage with another mulimeter ( put a fresh battery in the meter as well).

Yes, checked with another meter and replaced battery in mine, now both meters reading 12.7V, which was after charging mobile phone and netbook for the day & using cabin lights the night before. Thanks for the input...

Anyoneone had one of these solar panels?

We're moving to a swinging mooring inn April and we need about 20 amps a day to recharge lighting and water pump use. These looked great value for money - but is it monocrystaline that gets clobbered by line shadows? If so it's no good for us because it will be going on the wheelhouse roof. Thanks. S.

It's gone of the subject. I would also like to know if any one has had this solar panel as it seems incredable value for £69. odd quid for 50 W.???
