No switch. My RV runs 24/365 on solar. And with 510 watts you should not have an issue. Off is fine too.

What's the danger....overloading the controller? I have a fused breaker before and after the controller and shut the one off between controller and batteries occasionally so I can measure true panel output without the battery influence.
