In your testing, did you notice how many amps were going into the battery from your controller? When I connect my 100AH power queen to my Renogy Rover 40amp controller with 2 400W panels attached, its only sending 20 amps to the battery. I can even disconnect 1 panel and the total amps from the panels to the controller drops maybe 1 amp. This was driving me crazy today but I finally settled on the BMS in the power queen is only accepting 20 amps. Looking at the manual, it says 20 amps in the recommended charging current but it CAN accept 100 amps. I'm not seeing that it can accept more than 20 amps though with mine. Even so, I'm still happy with it, its a cheaper LiFePO battery and its powered a 32" TV and bluray player for upwards of 14 hours so I'm happy. Just curious if you or anyone else has experienced the same "issue."
I don't do any boating so I haven't used their batteries in this application. The reviews out there are positive. If Power Queen doesn't have the exact battery you want, LiTime has more of a selection; both are good batteries and very similar (if not exact except branding) LiTime www.litime.com/?ref=HOAH 6% discount HOAH PowerQueen amzn.to/3ZPoAZT
Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the view...like clockwork.

Thanks for sharing this; I didn't get to this level of detail but will pay more attention the next time I set it up.
Would you recommend a power queen for a boat trolling motor battery? do you happen to know the warranty on them ? Thanks

Any RF noise from from the charge controller, Bob?
Not yet tested. I have a Power Queen inverter to test out; will check RFI on both at the same time.
