    I have this same charge controller. So far so good. Works like a champ. I have 600 watts in solar panels and I have 6 marine deep cycle batteries. I have a 2000 watts continuous and 4000 peak power ROARBATT pure sine wave inverter.system works great I barely use half of what the inverter is capable of.

      Very good testimony on 600w input. I have two 350w panels on order so I can use the current studio panels (500w) as the test panels.
      You never know when you will need the extra power from your inverter.

    I would suggest changing the C volts to the actual batteries voltage. I have the same charge control and a extra monitor that was reading 14.6 while the charge controller was reading 14.4 and fluctuating giving me an overcharge warning. I waited till there was no power coming in and changed the C volts to the reading on the extra monitor after the batteries charge state settled and haven't had a warning since, and they both read the same voltage.

    Have been using one of their caseless models for 6 months or so. Everything has worked great so far except for user error. I had panels with an acceptable VOC in summer that went overvoltage for the controller in winter on a 24v battery - just had to convert from 3s2p to 2s3p to resolve.
    Fault monitoring/alarming is there but not obvious. That might be something good to show in your "enhanced" video.

    Very nice and informative narration about the charge controller but the video camera could not be focused parallel to the narration which made it a little disturbing. Secondly the auto switching function of the gadget from 12v battery to the 24v was not clear or properly visible due to the odd angle of the video-camera-light reflection on the charger LCD screen.

    That does look pretty nice. I've got one of their older ones in the Aluminium cases that I've yet to install with two solar panels, but from what I've seen they're pretty good. It would be nice if you could verify current and voltage in and out to get an idea of the efficiency of the controller.

    I bought this one just yestersay. You don't need to ground these devices. Especially not the solar panels. Just don't! Nor the charger and of course not the pure sine wave inverter. In contrast to a TT system, the circuit with the consumer system is zeroed in a TN system. In the TN system, operational grounding and system grounding are connected. But you need breakers. DC and AC breakers. Sorry for my English. It is not my first language. Hope I made my point.

      This unit could handle hydro input but you have to keep in mind the system voltage. My personal hydro system and several that I have worked with have been 200 V or more. That means that this a 160 V Max charge controller could not handle my system.
      I went with the midnight classic 250 to be able to handle the higher voltage. They are costly but they work very.

    • @Wrenchmonkey1
      @Wrenchmonkey1 2 місяці тому +1

      Acceptable amperage for a wire is a function of gauge, wire type and material (and insulation type), allowable voltage drop, and length of the total run. You need to calculate the length of your wires and then look up a wire gauge/amperage chart or use a calculator to determine what wire gauge you need to purchase for your particular install. And then install a fuse to protect the wiring at the rated amperage, just for good measure.

    I don't have the solution. I questioned the manufacturer but did not solve the problem and did not give me ANY solution.
    Watch the video with the demonstration. Search youtube "Novo Powmr controlador mppt 60a veio com defeito"
    Summary: When it enters mode 7, the voltage on the panels drops... and when the battery drops the voltage and it should exit mode 7 - it DOES NOT EXIT and continues with low voltage on the panels.
    You have to turn off the input from the panels and turn it back on to get it working normally again.
