A solar controller handles battery reconditioning by periodically initiating a desulfation process. This process involves sending high voltage pulses to the battery, which helps break down and remove sulfur build-up on the battery plates. By doing so, it helps restore the battery's capacity and prolong its overall lifespan.
A solar controller can handle battery reconditioning by implementing a specific charging profile that includes a series of controlled discharge and charge cycles. This process helps to remove sulfation from the battery plates, which is a common cause of battery degradation. The controller monitors the battery voltage, temperature, and other parameters to ensure that the reconditioning process is safe and effective. By optimizing the charging algorithm, the controller can extend the overall lifespan and performance of the battery.
A solar controller does not handle battery reconditioning directly. Battery reconditioning is a process that involves restoring old or weak batteries to their optimal performance. Solar controllers, on the other hand, are responsible for regulating the charge from the solar panels to the batteries and preventing overcharging or discharging. While some advanced solar controllers may have features like equalization charging, which can help extend battery life, the actual reconditioning process usually requires separate equipment and techniques.
