Charge controller recommendations
I have a small solar charging system consisting of two 12v 75w panels wired in series and a failing cheap MPPT charge controller. I may be acquiring another identical panel too. I'm currently leanin...

Sure is nice to see at least a few others believe in a fully configurable Solar Charge Controller. They are not for everyone and not cheap set and forget devices for the most part.
One of you guys pointed out the fact that the MSVIEW application is a free download, while there take look at the other interface protocol documents Morningstar has to offer again all free. Do you need to monitor the status from a-far, across town or across the globe? Easily done with these controllers.
I have a few applications that use the OPEN interface called MODBUS. Check out the Morningstar Interface protcol document, this interface allows WAY more possibilities than the MSVIEW app offers. You might want to also check out Solar Guppy over at NAWS forum he developed several nice configurable applications.
Anyone use their IPhone or Ipad to take a closer looks see at the controller while in operation on the road? Or even a simple MSVIEW "connect" which allows you to view log and graph Array power voltage current battery power voltage current efficiency and temperature effects.
