Few more pics daz...
panel left covered with sheet of card (to stop it producing and shorting out) and bit of protection whilst installing since its glass...
didnt get any of the panel mounted i used some square cornered "C" shape well more like [ shape aluminium to bolt to the back of the panel then bolted the [ to the roof with rubber washers and penny washers to provide a seal..
once bolted down (through the roof) cable passed into the shed....
(include a drip loop to prevent water running along cable into shed)
Battery was postioned on the floor and the supplied wires connected to the charge regulator / control box which was screwed to the shed wall leaving some ventilation round it (not that it gets hot but the instructions say to) ive left the pictures big so you can see the terminals:
so i now have solar wires into the shed and battery power (connect battery later)
i then set up my "load" aka lights.....
my home made power supply switch bank.....
1 pair of wires + and - from the Load of the controller into the box......
all - wires jointed together
a common live was linked between all three switches and each light got its own switch live.... sounds complex but err :
should make it clear
roof of the shed i stapled and used the sticky back of the led strip roll to provide an inside light wired to the pull cord....
and 2 led flood lights outside (10w 12v)
really hard to show how bright these things are
then hook up the wires to the control unit
load first
then battery and connect to battery itself (there is a inline micro 5a car fuse to protect the system)
set the battery type as per the instruction book
then connect cell and uncover ... and bingo
green solar light should come on in day light...
press mini button on controller to turn on the load (ive left it turned on) then control via 3 way switch will add PIR's when the post man delivers them from china
