No! I've already done the math here about a year (or more) ago. Not going to repeat it. The Rogue controller designer was under the same impression, that is until I set him straight.

Depends on many factors, but the performance advantages of the MPPT over PWM can be significant under most operating conditions.
Please set me straight...
MPPT controllers can be buck/boost topology designs and can operate over a much wider range of panels voltages than a PWM buck only topology. This equates to more operating time which ultimately increases system performance.
