Question:

Will this panel work with 4 lifepo4 batteries connected together as a 12 volt system?

Hey Lance! The Go Power PWM Solar Charge Controller # GP76QR will definitely work with your LiFePO4 batteries connected in parallel. Just make sure the BMS of the batteries you want to connect allows four of them to be hooked together (it probably does). You also want to make sure your power center is lithium compatible if you're switching from lead acid.

Are you putting together a solar system? If you need help with any other parts like the panels, wiring, connectors, or something like an inverter or transfer switch let me know.

The batteries are capable of being in parallel and I upgraded my power go panel so that I had the lithium option. Anything I need to do with it other than set it to lithium and let it run?

@Lance I only mentioned parallel since that is how you will have them connected in a 12V system assuming they're all 12V batteries. When you say power go panel I'm not sure if you mean power center or the Go Power charge controller but as long as both are set for lithium you're all set.

@RobinHyes they are parallel and are all 12 volt. Yes the main panel I just purchased and installed from you guys. My other did not have the lithium option so I just purchased the newest control panel that did. Thank you for all your help
