New controller? Looks like it was added today.

Only tried it a little to see how to work the display buttons etc. Seems all right except the volt reading is reading low by 0.2v, so I have to apply that error when looking at it. No biggie.

Also the adjustment for stop charging or float voltage is wonky but also consistent so just allow for it. On mine, to get it to stop at 14.8 you have to set 14.4.

Once battery voltage reaches your setting of say 14.8 it stays there, which is what I want. If you want it to drop in voltage for Float after doing some time at 14.8, you can just set the voltage to that.

I won't know for a few weeks yet how the ammeter and AH counter check out until we are set up doing actual solar while camping.

Not cold wet and dark here! The yellow Daffs look nice under the mauve Magnolias next to the plum and cherry blossoms.

Nice! 14.8V suits my purpose just fine, should do a great job of getting as close as possible to 100% with only 7 amps input on a 150 Ah T-1275 Trojan. I'll be drawing about .7 to 1.0 Amp due to refrig, CO sensors and propane sensors per hour just as parasitic loss. I may be able to cut the Honda EU and the PD 9245 down to 30 or 40 minutes of bulk charging in the morning, or even keep it turned off for a few days before I need to run it in the morning enough to let the solar top the charge off fully by mid day.
