Connecting multiple Sunsei SE-500 panel together may require a charge controller.

Can the Sunsei 500 Solar Battery Charger drain my battery at night? No. All Sunsei solar panels in the SE-150, SE-500 and SE-1500 range are equipped with a built-in diode, which prevents any reverse current.

Do I have to disconnect the panels from the battery when I drive or while I am recharging my battery with my generator? No, Sunsei solar panels are designed to be connected to the battery permanently. There is no need to disconnect them when charging the batteries by other means such as AC chargers or your vehicle's generator or alternator.

Can I mount the Sunsei SE-500 Solar Battery Charger directly to a surface or do I need to use some sort of bracket? Sunsei solar panels can be installed directly to a flat surface, using the screws provided. Note: The Sunsei SE-500 Solar Battery Charger is compatible with the Sunsei SolarGrip. It provides alternative mounting options (no need to drill your deck or roof) and rotates 360 degrees for double the solar power.

Can the Sunsei 500 Solar Battery Charger be left outdoors without protective covering? Yes, the SolarCharger SE-500 has been weather protected and can be mounted outdoors.
