if the transformers burning out i would suggest its overloaded.

You cant rely on the fuses to prove its not overloaded as they wont blow till current is past 1.8A and the panel cannot provide that for long.

Need to know your day mode current and battery charge current.

Try a decent panel instead?

I think this is a cracking little panel for the money. Plus we still have optima 1's we installed in the 80's going strong.
