mppt vs pwm
Hi, A nice little video comparing mppt vs pwm with the batteries in bulk mode. mppt vs pwm

Good to here things are not as murky as they once were
I almost did not post that voltage graph for fear of the continued questions. Like everyone here I have other things demanding attention.
WATTS you mentioned wanting to know the watts :C
I would indeed like to know the efficiency of your controller
I remain very confused when folks use the term MPPT - to me that means Max Power Point Tracking not an operational mode of the controller but a acronym coined to differentiate the traditional PWM controller - to each their own.
The tracking function integrated within most MPPT controllers differs greatly for each manufacturer and sometimes with their internal lines on their different models. This function can be asked to do many different functions (A very good read is available on line that covers the several different tracking algorithms in use today) - as some use it to limit Over powered array's from hurting the controller by limiting the input watts thus the output current.
