It automatically detects battery voltage on startup, so there's no manual configuration for small off-grid setups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharge current\u003c\/strong\u003e, 5A, compatible with 12V and 24V battery systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuto voltage detection\u003c\/strong\u003e, identifies 12V or 24V on startup with no manual selection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePWM charge algorithm\u003c\/strong\u003e, reduces stress on the battery during absorption and float phases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 0.13 kg, suited to space-constrained installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLoad output\u003c\/strong\u003e, includes low-voltage disconnect to protect against over-discharge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLED indicators\u003c\/strong\u003e, show charge status and load output status\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eA PWM controller connects the solar panel directly to the battery during bulk charging, then switches the connection on and off rapidly to hold the target voltage through absorption and float. For small systems where panel voltage is close to battery voltage, this is a simpler and cheaper approach than MPPT.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStripped-back by design\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe PWM-Light is the simplest unit in Victron's PWM range. It leaves out the VE.Direct port and programmability of the Pro models, keeping cost and complexity down while still offering the load output with low-voltage disconnect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSuited to small off-grid cabins and garden buildings with a single panel, caravans and campervans needing basic solar maintenance, portable camping setups, and small 12V or 24V top-up systems on boats and leisure vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e1x Victron BlueSolar PWM-Light Charge Controller 12\/24V 5A\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52061014556960,"sku":"SCC010005000","price":12.06,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-scc010005000-1.webp?v=1785509194","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/bluesolar-pwm-light-5a-controller","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
