Do you publish the Power Net interface protocol?
If not why not?
I looked through the web site and was not able to find the protocol document

Yes, it will be published. I've had others ask as well, just haven't had the time yet to document it properly.

Thanks
I understand things take time and there are other higher priorities
Looking forward to reading the document when it becomes available

no more mpt-3048

Other news: After a lot of deliberating, we've decided not to produce another run of the MPT-3048. The niche for a 30A MPPT controller is no longer what it was when Rogue first came out with one. We were one of about two companies in 2008 that sold a fully programmable 30A MPPT controller. Now there are at least three US-based companies and a handful of Chinese competition that have crowded the market, such that we can no longer economically manufacture the 3048. The MPT-2024 may also be discontinued after existing stock runs out, for the same reason (it is actually much less profitable than the 3048 is). We have a good supply of the 2024 right now, but will likely sell out this year. The flip side of all of this is that we have some ideas for designs that are presently not being produced by any manufacturer, and which have a strong potential to create a new niche for a smaller company like Rogue. Stay tuned this year for more details on what's to come!

Well, that sucks.
