View moreAny solar charger is not going to charge at night, that is a no brainer.

Thus, if the unit is not started, I must assume it is turned off.
Here’s What You Need to Know! At night, when your solar panels aren’t producing power, a small amount of electricity can flow in the opposite direction from the batteries back to the solar panels. This is called reverse current, and it could slowly drain your batteries. A solar charge controller, however, prevents this from happening.
Solar charge controller troubleshooting usually entails checking if the solar panel and battery are correctly connected to the controller, inspecting for any signs of damage or wear and tear, and reviewing if the settings are appropriately configured.
A solar charge controller (or sometimes called a solar regulator) plays a crucial role in solar power systems. It sits between the solar panels and the battery bank, controlling the flow of electricity to prevent the batteries from overcharging and extend their lifespan.
Solar Charge Controller icon and lights Blinks or Flashes to indicate the operating status of the solar system components connected to the solar controller. These are the most common lights that you will see on your solar charge controller, whether it is an MPPT solar controller or an economic PWM controller.
Overcharging occurs when the batteries get too much power, which could cause battery swelling, leakage, and even explosions – a surefire way to hurt your investment. A properly functioning solar controller stops charging when your battery reaches full capacity, preventing overcharging. See also: Solar Charge Controller USB Not Working?
