Frequently Asked Questions
How should I wire my panels with Rover Lite MPPT charge controller?
The panels can be wired in series, parallel, or a series-parallel combination. With a 150V maximum solar input, you can connect up to 6 panels in series and 5 in parallel.
What are the advantages of Renogy MPPT technology?
Renogy Rover Series solar charge controllers use Power Catcher MPPT algorithm to always ensure the charge controller converts most energy by locking to the most optimal maximum power point.
What is a Solar Charge Controller and what is MPPT?
The Charge Controller takes the power made by the solar panels and transform the ‘solar panel power’ into a form of power that the batteries can use. MPPT stands for Maximum Power Point Tracking, and it relates to the solar cell itself. Each solar cell has a point at which the current (I) and voltage (V) output from the cell result in the maximum power output of the cell. MPPT ensures that you get the most power possible from your solar panels at any point in time. It is particularly effective during low light level conditions.
What would the connections for "Load(optional)" be used for? Also what would it rated for(amps/watts). The way I read the wiring diagram the batteries should get connected to inverter, would these get connected to inverter under certain conditions?
In the load terminal, you can connect any12V or DC appliances in Rover's case any load that does not exceed 20 amps. Even our Rover 60Amp. Also, the charge controller requires to be connected to a battery bank which an inverter is required if we will consume the charge from the battery. For further concerns, you can respond to this email or you can give us a call at (909) 287-7100. We're open Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 3 pm PST.
If I buy & hook up the 300 Watt 24V solar panel to this controller - will it convert the 24V
The Rover Lite 60A controller's designed to handle 900 watts with a 12 volt battery bank. This charge controller will take the excess voltage coming from the 300 watt/24 volt panel and convert it to amperage. As for your inverter, as long as you do not exceed the max rated voltage of your Inverter (12 volts) , it will be fine.
