yes and no, depending how you wire it. If you drop a regulator between the battery and the S1 you can set it to a rock solid 12V but if you wire directly to it, when the battery goes under 10V you will get issues, not so much at the 13v unless it's still attached to the charger. If on the other hand, you want to go with it always being charged, you may want to invest in a ' solar charge controller ' as it's got most of what you want already built in. Just connect the battery to the B+B- the miner to the load then the charger ( or solar cells, wind generator, what have you that can send power to the battery ). I invested in a rather cheap one that can handle up to 10 Amps. That is 10 Amps going in, to/from the battery OR out so it can handle up to a 10 Amp draw. The only issue was the almost month to get it from China ( one of the cheapest ones from eBay and it's still working, so is the battery I connected to it ).
To recap direct - NOOOOO Indirect with some regulation - yes
You did say you were new to mining, don't forget to go over HOW to get the S1 mining otherwise it will mine happily away with the default settings and not where you want it to mine to earn for you.
