All lead acid batteries have a maximum charging current and maximum charging voltage based upon the battery's temperature. Lithium ion batteries are less affected by temperature. The PV source must be designed to supply a charging current that is not below the manufacturer recommended minimum charge rate and that is not above the manufacturer recommended maximum charge rate. A battery must be paired with a charge controller that is designed for use with that type of battery. Each individual battery make and model will have its own specific characteristics that will have to be programmed into the charge controller.
