 If **running larger loads** (fans, laptop chargers) the setpoint should be set higher (like 13.5v - 14.0v).  This is because the panel will be able to make more power closer to Vmp.  Consider the popular [[http://amzn.to/2you3Kj|Renogy 100w panel]] that puts out about 5.29A.  At the lower LVR the panel((under lab conditions)) will make **68.77W**.  At the higher LVRs the panel will make **71.42-74.06W** If **running larger loads** (fans, laptop chargers) the setpoint should be set higher (like 13.5v - 14.0v).  This is because the panel will be able to make more power closer to Vmp.  Consider the popular [[http://amzn.to/2you3Kj|Renogy 100w panel]] that puts out about 5.29A.  At the lower LVR the panel((under lab conditions)) will make **68.77W**.  At the higher LVRs the panel will make **71.42-74.06W**
