If I set this to 28.4v, will it work to charge 24v battery from 12v solar panel?

In theory that would work, but if the battery is discharged it will probably burn the module up trying to maintain the current

Yes, it should work. You'd honestly be better off getting a second solar panel and wiring them in series to produce 24v.

I don't believe it is a 24 volt charger per se but depending on which charger you have it can charge one or two 12 volt batteries at a timeSo one 24 volt battery noBut if two 12 set up for 24 volt yes

Do not hook up to 24 volts, it's For 12v to 13.5 dc volt . You can find good one inverter 24 volt @http://www.theinverterstore.com/2500-watt-power-inverter-24-volt.html

only if you use a 12v charge controller and have you batteries wired in series. the output of the panel under load is a bit over 24v.

I put a voltmeter on it and it puts out around 36v, which I use to charge my 24v battery bank.

Yes it will I would wire your panels in series for 24 volts to the controller for best results and you bankroll have a 12v battery bank

This is just a trickle charger to keep the battery charged when not in use. Do you have a volt meter? You can check to see if is working by hooking the red wire of meter to red wire on the solar charger and blk to blk put it in the sun you should get more than 12v.

not sure as it is rated for 24 volts power source. Try it, it wont hurt it.

The only way I see it working with 24v is with a resistor. I've ordered them from the EQstore on eBay. You can just ground it to the battery source.

ZyPhReX, This chargers real ability is to convert 24V panels to 12V or 12V panels to 24V. The output amperage is based on the output voltage as far as I know. So this MPPT controller will handle 240w outputting to 12v. 480w outputting to 24V. I would recommend a ~250w 24v panel, this changer, at 12V. Or 2 ~250w 24v panels, this charger, at 24V. You can wire them in series up to 100v. Realize that 12v panels run at about 15v and 24v panels run at about 30v.Hope I helped.

No, I think the generator inside the unit is set to generate 12V. The controller that goes with this system is also 12V so unless there is a controller that can convert to 24V, then you may need to find another way to convert the charge. I 24V system is more expensive though? FYI.

Should work.But i suggest to find 24v DC - AC inverter and hook it directly to your batteries. Converting from 24V to 12V and then to AC voltage is not efficient at all.

It will not work with 24 volts. I don't recommend this unit to anyone as mine stopped working after 6 months and I had to replace the unit! I am not a happy camper with Amazon!!!

Yes 24V, 0~3A should be fine. My rule of thumb, for 24V or less, keeping the current below half the AC current is fine.

The one I bought was already set up to run 24 volt. It's in the directions.

I have only used it on a car battery so far. I'll post when I try the 24 volt

this charge controler will work for a 24 volt system. that being said, you did not state what you are doing with it. i would assume you are charging batteries with your solar panels and that you intend to get a lot more in the future. if this is all the panels you are going to use with this controller, it is way more than you need. since you are a first timer, i would urge you to consult with someone in your world that knows solar and electrical hook ups. do this and save a bunch of time and money, and your safety. best of luck!
