The Eco Worthy MPPT controller came in today. It appears to be well made, but time will tell. I would like to mount it outside near the batteries and solar panel. Has anyone used a water tight plastic box with a hinged lid? If so, what did you use. I don't want a box that conducts heat.
I also have a polycarbonate covered box that I use for my cable and Sat TV entry for the house. That also isn't hinged but the polycarbonate might be just the thing because you could see the controller inside. What you would do for ventilation might be tricky.
Just for curiosity, what is the size of the Ecoworthy?
