Kurt,
It was my inquiry. No responses. The smallest CC I have seen is a 2A from
Holly Solar. The only one I have installed has worked well for 2 years in a
LED system (but I am cautious about recommending Holly stuff generally, as
some is great and some is problematic in our experience).
Actually, I suspect that in the system you describe with NiMHs, no CC is
needed, as the batts can routinely handle overcharge. Am I wrong here?
