Thanks again for the help guys!

All the parts have come in and I might try setting it up tomorrow.

The MPPT controller I bought says: electronic protection from over charging, over discharging, over load and short circuit. So I guess I don't need that micro controller Red Squirrel was talking about.

The pump I bought isn't rated for continual use 🙁 not sure if I'm going to let it run till it burns out or try to find another one.

One other thing I didn't think off is the controller isn't water proof so I'll have to figure out a housing for that and the batteries. Might have to throw a fan in there to dissipate the heat.
