   * the SOLAR terminals will be left empty if one has no panels.  If you have panels those wires plug in here.  A 20A controller has been selected so one could run up to 200w of 12v panels with this setup.
   * the BATTERY terminals connect to whatever your battery is:  starter battery for single-battery systems, the aux battery for dual-battery systems
-  * the LOAD terminals are where you take your 12v power from.  This is critical because the controller can be configured to turn that circuit off at a predetermined voltage like 12.7v;  this is called a [[electrical:12v:lvd|Low Voltage Disconnect]] (LVD).  Your battery cannot be drained when used this way.
