The point being is if you buy a PWM controller with a stated limit like 390 watts, and you abide by that limit, you will never have 30 amp charging, it's not possible when the panels sustained ability is only 22.xxx amps
When buying in the solar market, it's buyer beware, go in eyes wide open question everything you read from sellers
Grizzman do you have a link?
I'm still shopping for a controller to be my spare
Link to SC-2030 User's Manual pdf: http://www.bogartengineering.com/sites/default/files/docs/SC2030-2-15-15-UsersInstruc.pdf
See page 1 (suggests 4 X 135-watt panels @ 12 VDC) and Page 4 (Specs say input up to 60 amps, but will clip the extra's.)
I plan on getting one of these to play with my newly-installed Trimetric 2030 monitor,using about 400 watts of panels to start.
