Hi Time2roll,
The Morningstar MPPT 60 does have some advantages--it is essentially three controllers "stacked" together, so it is more efficient at low amperage than the 45.
I made the mistake of only getting a 30 amp controller, that meant upgrading meant buying either an additional controller--or buying a larger one. I've not done either because of the cost.

I recommend the Morningstar TS-MPPT-30 but at close to $400 there are lower cost controllers around. I don't think you need more than 30 amps. That is I would not pay extra for 40 unless you may expand the system. I bought the 60 and in hindsight the 45 would have been fine.
