I can't answer that. I have 2 on my system. I guess you could add as many as you want.

The manufacturer- "windynation" recommends one- "100 watt solar panel" for charging batteries of 50 ah. Example-If you had two 25 ah batteries connected that would be 50 ah. Now depending on a lot of variables I could get by with this for awhile; and someone else may not.My train of thought centers on it is better to have it and not use it than to need it and not have it. But if you don't need it for extended periods,have plenty of sunshine,and can keep the little woman away from the blow dryer you may be o.k.. I am not an expert though. The best info is sometimes available from the literature,the mfg.,etc. and you can always contact them.

I have 120w panel on my cabin roof but the sun doesn't hit it that hard....... I struggle to keep one charged. But the 100w is on the roof of my other little hunting cabin that is in the sun all day and it rocks the batteries no prob. Just all depends on the sun.

With just one Panel in this kit of 100W it takes a couple days to fully charge my Vmaxtanks Vmaxslr125 AGM Deep Cycle 12v 125ah SLA rechargeable Battery. That is without the even having the inverter connected as it still usws a bit of power while connected.

It will charge 2 or both batteries. It is very straight forward for the hook up installation from the instruction manual.

I don't know, sorry I cannot answer that, however I am sure it is safe to charge 2 batteries.

It has two separate charging systems one for each battery. It will show you the status of each battery. It has a push button switch on each side to select the type of charging you prefer but I let the whole system choose the charging system for each battery which is automatic. Takes about 24 hours for full analyzing and charging both batteries at the same time and however that also depends on the age of the batteries can take two or three days.

Joan - I think it will only charge 2 batteries or 4 batteries by design - Harold

It will handle two batteries okay. whether it will charge both or only the one it is connected to depends entirely on how you batteries and electrical system are wired.

Yes, this past summer I used an old 12 volt car battery, but the system was turned on for about 10 hours at night-time only. For my situation, I simply charged the battery once a week. It worked fine, but a deep cycle battery would be preferred to avoid the need for frequent charging.

Its not necessarily about the amount of batteries it will charge/maintain. This unit is rated for 140 amps of throughput. As long as your power draw to charge all of those batteries doesn't exceed that i'd imagine you'd be fine to hook up as many as you want.Another variable also is how many amps your alternator is putting out.

My application is different, 2 trolling motor batteries, 1 starting/accessory battery. The charger will charge all 3 batteries to full after heavy use in 1 evening, batteries are Optima Blue tops.

I used the 200w report solar panel system to charge that batt. 3 of us ran laptops and phones as well as a heavy water pump and the solar panel kept it full almost always. Did this for 17 days. I'm not sure how much AGM batteries are meant to deep cycle though so look into that.

Realistically, I get 3 to 4 hours for each battery. I bought a backup and that will usually get me through a full day of caching. Of course, if you use the cradle, it will charge your unit while you're driving between stops!

The unit will charge any combination of one to eight AA and/or AAA NiMH batteries, regardless of mAH rating. Mix and match - the charger doesn't know and doesn't care.

My unit requires two riged in series . I get about 5-6 hours of use per charge

I plugged it in to charge when I received and I remember it was completely charged in a few hours. Sorry I don't remember how many but I used it the same night.

Each battery will last 5 to 7 minutes it will take 10 to 15 minutes to charge the batteries

Thanks for your inquiry. The batteries would have to be connected in parallel, not series, in order to be charged.

According to the hype, you can charge up to 4, 12 Volt batteries at once? However, I could not get it to work?
