Hi,

This appears to be a bargain price. Any comments?

I have not used this controller so just going on what I read.

I've read the same thing but then again,I have read what trash Renogy is but I haven't had any issues with the two I have,other than smallish connection ports..I'm looking to get an MPPT 20 amp controller here very soon soon..Epever was on my short list but I may just go Victron and be done with it ..

I have been using a renogy 40amp mppt for two years now and love it. works great, totaly programable if you want or just use there presets.

I have respect for Renogy, I have some of their components and like them. They have gotten used used daily for a few years now and no problems at all.

That being said, I am going to go with Victron for my MPPT charge controller, and most likely my next PSW inverter. I have one of their 375 watt inverters now and am going to go with at least a 1200 watt unit.

I have used their 40A controller for 12 years and have had zero problems.

An 80 amp solar controller is...wow! 14 100 watt solar panels under ideal conditions would be needed to use its full capacity.
