is it possible to set this to any amperage output? i specifically am wondering if it can be set to 55a for flash reprogramming of domestic controllers

No only voltage is programmable, it will vary the amps to maintain the voltage setting. I've never heard of setting amperage for flash programming, only voltage.

Programming setting is 70a. You can select voltage range from about 12 to 14.5

most in fact I am pretty sure all manufacturers give a voltage reading to maintain during flash programming. If you set an amperage you would likely not stay at a steady voltage which is the concern. If they mentioned an amperage reading it means charger must be capable of amp rating with sustained and clean power

No, you can not set the amperage output, only the voltage. I use it to program European cars, I set the voltage and the amperage varies depending on the demand. Have had no problems with it.

It is designed for programming. It has a separate program mode which maintains 14.2 volts and adjusts the amps as necessary to do so. I use it for programming my BMWs. It is also dual voltage.

I never found the datasheet. What I can tell you is that the power rating is also variable. If at or near midpoint I've pushed 2A just fine, but near the edge (small resistor side) it cant handle much at all before smoking. This is a good product for the price, but in opinion only appropriate for prototyping and not implementation. I hope this helps.

I have run 2 strips through one of those 133 channel controllers. Just set the length to 100. 6A power supply going into the controller. No problems. You will have no problems controlling 4 strips, and you can inject power as you stated if necessary.

You probably could, but keep in mind all total shouldn't be more than 10A. I would measure the actual current of the device to see if it is really 1.5A. I have 900ma cameras and a 500ma illuminatior that total only used 500ma of power (measured) total. I think the plate rating sometimes is a little generous.

I am an electronics geek so here it goes. I don't know what u mean about the ma input but you can use any standard wall outlet. This unit is great and puts out a very stable 300ma at 3, 4.5, 6, 7.5, 9, and 12v DC. If you need 4.8v 5v is the closest it would get. However you could get a 4.8 voltage regulator and run the 5 thru that and the output would be fine. You could just solder the components onto a proto type board and there you go, it would work. You could get the parts at a Frys or online. But this unit will not put out 4.8v right out of the box, it has no setting for it. I don't know what you are using it for and if the 4.5v is exact, because 5v is really close, but that's it. I really hopes this helps you. Please keep in mind I do not think there is a standard AC to DC that will output something exact as 4.8v, that's pretty specific. Again I hope I helped you. Have a great day. Kevin P

mine did NOT come with schematic or documentation of any kind. I would NOT expect it to operate a low current relay, the output will only trigger a logic level signal in the very low milliamp range. 0-5vdc

I have ganged two of these 30A supplies together in parallel to provide 60A. I did this using two high-current diodes to prevent one supply from pushing current into the other (because the two supplies will have slightly different voltage settings. You can up regulate the voltage settings on the supplies to offset the 0.6V drop across the diodes. This works fine for me; I usually draw a total of about 55 amps from the pair, but in initial testing they did produce 60 amps. I did not run them at 60Amps for very long however. Garrett Odell

It comes with an AC adaptor for only show 120V. It is heat (IR) activated. I never have the problem to hit the memory limit (may be some hours of recording) so far I have catch many of the event records and never need to worry the memory is full. I don't know it will be looping itself or not. Regards

Yes. You'll be fine. Max amps are 20 for this controller. With optimal lighting your panels may never even actually reach 3x 5.57 amps. Also, since this controller will charge 24 volts, you can actually run twice the panels at double voltage and still keep amps under 20. Read the manual!

As per labeled on the switch, its rated up to 20Amps.....hope this will help you....thx.

No, the output will always be less than the input. If you want an higher voltage, search for 'boost converter'

This unit puts out 3.3 Amps at 22V at full sun (72.6W actual) I bought a 7A controller to work with this.

I need more information than you are supplying to help. In short 40 amp is about 400 watts give or take. I use this controller and have had very good results, however I chose to change my legacy system to 24 volt rather than stay 12 as it provides several advantages. By reducing the number of batteries in series it allows for a better electron flow assisting in keeping the batteries balanced. My Solar array consists of 3 250 watt 30 volt black panels I got from Amazon, they are in series feeding this controller. I have 8 390AH flooded 6 volt batteries, they are configured 4 in series with two banks of 24 volts in parallel. This configuration allows for a more even charge all my batteries are now testing at full charge. When I bought this place the previous owner had 6 batteries in a 12 volt configuration and I found that only 2 to four of the 6 were getting fully charged. The batteries at the negative end were absorbing properly but the farther down the battery array the batteries never fully charged. It also increased the amperage so I have now have more available power. I also have a 850 watt wind generator tied in parallel to my solar array running to this charge controller. Since I went to this configuration I have not run out of power once, making my bride happier. I can now run my welder and other power tools life is good. If you feel you truly need to add a second controller you simply parallel the output of the controllers together. Hope this helps.

JD - Kindly edit your response, it is .3 of an Amp, not 2.4. Also- I would LOVE to know what kind of a controller you use with the solar panels and batteries.

You may want to have a dimmer on some lights, and none on others which would be possible with the two separate outputs. I'm not sure whether drawing all of the amperage capacity from just one output would cause a problem or not.

If the input is 9 volts and the output of the speed controller is still a Variable 1 to 9 volts then if you exceed the approximate 3 volt rating of the stock motor, you will burn the motor out. If you can regulate from 1 volt to 3 volts MAXIMUM voltage output, then you should be OK.

No problem with energy loss. I have a 30 amp charge controller with a 145 watt SP. I have the same reading 5ft as I do at 50. Bigger wire is better but for my little system 10 ga works great.
