Works well. I cover it when it rains, charges my RV battery well. Deep cycle 12vdc sealed lead acid.

This is a nice MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) solar charge controller with SAE plug connectors for ease of use. It has built in charge profiles for lead acid, AGM/Gel, Calcium, and LiFePo4 battery chemistry. You can charge both 12 volt and 24 volt batteries. There is a push button to select the battery chemistry charge profile required for your particular battery. It’s a pretty simple setup.The controller is waterproof and made for outdoor use. Of course you can use it inside too. The SAE connectors can be cut off if you just want to use wire terminals for connecting the wires. I use this controller with a 50 watt folding solar panel and a small 12 volt LiFePo4 battery that can be carried/packed when camping or hitting the outdoors for the day. The controller will handle 10 amps at 12/24 volts. I’d keep it below 1,200 watts but the specs claim more. I like this for more portable arrangements, but it can be used in permanent installations.Operation is fairly simple. Connect the output to your battery. Connect the input to your solar panel(s) and then push the mode button to select your battery type. There are three LED’s to show you charge stage/status, and one that changes color based on your battery chemistry selection. When fully charged all three LED charge indicators will light.Applications are pretty wide. You can charge a power station, car, boat, tractor, lighting, etc. battery or any other battery that falls within the controllers parameters. I’ll also use this on my boats when I can’t be connected to shore power and want to keep my batteries fully charged while they are sitting.The price is decent and the controller is well made and works well. If you need a decent controller that won’t break the bank, take a good look at this one.

The pictures in the listing show the battery connected to the "Top" side of the controller (the side with the three LED).I was ready to wire it up that way, when I found the manual, which shows the battery connected to the BOTTOM side of the controller , next to the battery type button.Needs to have a marking on the controller and the listing pictures need to be corrected.Update:Finally got my first small12V LiFePO4 solar setup going. This controller powered on as a Calcium battery and nothing I could do would make it change battery type.Threw it away.

This is an affordable, no-frills, solar MPPT charge controller. It has a maximum current output of 10 amps, and will work for both 12 and 24 volt systems. This charge controller is ideal for trickle-charging vehicles or other projects where high amperage is not needed or desired. This charge controller is very basic, but seems to work well for the cost. Be advised, this charge controller does not appear to have reverse polarity protection which is unfortunate since that is a very basic feature. I will take off on star for that, but otherwise this is a decent charge controller.

There is a lot to like about this. The body isn't metal, just plastic, but that keeps it from heating up and it is a very firm plastic that feels rugged enough to last very well, and it is sealed up tight as a drum, very hardy in the elements. This uses SAE cable connections, which work with my solar panels and battery boxes, and you can select four different battery types, Lead Acid, AGM/GEL, Calcium, LIFEPO4... It adjusts voltage and charging patterns to accommodate all of them.It would be nice if this came with two SAE polarity adapters instead of just one. In my case I needed one for both ends of this, and was glad to already have a few in spare I could use. Check the product pictures for the polarity, but if you don't have a few polarity SAE adapters already, get some, you'll need them eventually and be glad you were prepared.To test this I drained a 7Ah LiFePO4 battery that I use for spare power while camping. The next morning I checked it's resting voltage at 10.6 volts, very near totally drained. Then I put it out on a 30-watt solar panel with this controller.There isn't a lot going on with display here, the battery type you chose is indicated by the color of a single LED light, and the charge status is just three LED lights that blink... But it tells you everything you need to know, so it works.Usually the 7Ah battery I used this with is full in about 5 hours with the PWM controller that came with my panel, I checked hourly, and at 4 hours this was finished. That's nearly a full hour faster than usual, and a big improvement in efficiency! That smart power point tracking technology really does give a more efficient charge than PWM, I was very pleased. MPPT is an investment, but it saves real time, and that makes it absolutely worth it. I was plenty happy with this, and recommended it gladly!

This is probably OK for lead acid, but I would not trust it with AGM or lifepo4. There's no display to confirm voltage, charge level, watts, or anything else. I question if it is really performing mppt. There are hundreds of fake mppt chargers online. How do we know this one isn't just pwm labeled as mppt?

The poly energy MPPT Charge controller worked well which I use to charge a LiFEPo battery for ham radio use. The only down side was that here were no labels for the LED's and button on the front panel which made understanding the instruction manual difficult.
