24V vs. 12V. this is where I need more education.

Can you charge a 12V battery on a 24V solar panel?

The problem I was running into with my configurations is that the solar panels I was looking at that were above 150 watts were 24V instead of 12V. So I assumed that wouldn't work.

(All of the pumps I've seen are 12V, so I assume they need to be hooked to a 12V battery.)

So I thought I needed to stick with a 12V panel, but then be limited to 150 watts or less that will only run a "small" pump.
