Right now I use a combination of a Rogue MPPT at 30 amps for a single 24v 250 watt panel and a Solar Force 30 amp for a legacy 12v array of 3 panels for a combined 290 watts. Agree that moving to a single higher capacity controller is the way to go.
Nice controller. I have one too.
But as I added more 24V solar panels upto 690W I exceeded what the 30A controller could convert at 12V. So I changed to a 24V battery configuration which doubled the Rogue's solar capacity upto 960W.
I would use your Solar Force controller separately for a portable array of light weight 12V panels. Have been thinking of doing something similar for a while.
