I have an 80W PV panel connected to a Morningstar PWM charge controller. The battery output of the controller goes through a fuse to the battery. The load output of the controller is not connected.
I use a PD4045 converter/charger for DC power distribution. The DC input of the PD4045 is connected through a fuse to the battery.
Would I be better off connecting the PD4045 DC input to the Load terminals of the charge controller? What are the trade offs here?
Thanks
