Package contains 25 Pieces - Diodes Product Description 6 Amp Axial Rectifier Diode 6A10 6A 1000V 1KV Depending on the type and brand, solar panels put out 16 to 50+ DC volts, so if there is no regulation the batteries may be damaged from overcharging. Generally, there is no need for a charge controller with the small 1 to 5 watt trickle charge panels. A rough rule is that if the panel puts out 1/60th or less per day of the rated battery amp-hour capacity, you don't need one. Testing charge controllers: Nearly all charge controllers REQUIRE that they be hooked up to a battery in order to operate. You cannot hook up a solar panel to the input and use the LOAD or OUTPUT with no battery connected. Also, if you try to measure the volts or amps on those terminals with no battery, you will not get a valid reading. Since most use a solar charger controller or solar charger regulator, I would say in most cases diodes are more popular with generators made from dc motors. You can make wind turbines and hydro power with dc motors. However, you need diodes so the generator does not become an electric motor and start turning when hooked up to a battery. The diode will stop this from happening.
