MPPT solar charge controller recommendaion
Hi All,
I know,... yet another solar power question! I've done quite a bit of research and received some good information here, so thanks for all that so far! After considerable time researching this all I am now convinced completely that I want an MPPT.
The Question: I've seen 30amp MPPT controllers from Tracer for $136 all the way up past the Morningstar and others up to over $700! Why such a difference in prices? (other than perhaps a few bells and whistles) Do any of you have a specific recommendation based on your own use? I'm going to be charging 2 AGM batteries and my use is lights, furnace, fans, 12v TV/DVR, and water pump. I want a 30 amp to allow for expansion later if wanted/needed. Cost of course is a consideration.
Thanks in advance!...
