ISTR your 120w is two 60s, so you could run a 24v test and report back, confirming this as a "fake MPPT" or not. :)
My 120 is two 60w jobs, yes, but they are soldered together parallel inside the junction boxes, and one set of wires out to the RJ Special mounted on the back, not worth tampering with to me, in the name of science... The new owner can experiment with them in series, if they so desire.
40 amp30 Amp20 AMPMy guess is that it is fake, but I can not confirm either way. It has a very good pulse charge algorithm, that keeps the amps up when in bulk charge mode. If you find it boils your batteries, drop your charge voltage 1/10 of a volt at a time to something that you like. Since I run but one battery, my goal, daily is to exceed 97 or 98% SOC,not be satisfied with a 90% charge and calling it good.
Basically I have done all I can to match everything in my recharging system to the 150AH Trojans T-1275's I run.
Can't wait to try it down in Quartzsite come January with some short days.
