Hello there, and thank you for reading my question:
I have 2 15 Watt, 12V solar panels, currently powering up a 12v, .3A air pump ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000EYWNVQ ) to aerate a 300 Gallon fish pond. I'd like to run the air pump 24/7 by introducing a 12V 15AH SLA Battery ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UC8OVUU ) and a charger controller (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004Q820UK ) to this system. How do I wire them together? Should I buy better equipment?, cause either this diagram is wrong, or my equipment is underspecced in some way or I am doing something wrong, because after a week or so it stops working and the battery is too dead to charge. Do I need bigger batteries?, a different charger controller?
