Frequently asked questions

What does a fast‑flashing green charging indicator mean?

It indicates that the system voltage is over‑voltage and the controller is in a protection state.

How can I reset the controller after an overload or short‑circuit event?

Press the switch button once and wait about 30 seconds; the controller will restore normal output.

What is the rated charging current for the PJRC10I model?

The PJRC10I has a rated charging current of 10 A.
