Charge Controllers
Regulate solar panel array amperage output to battery input. Charge controllers start or stop
charge to batteries based on battery bank voltage. All controllers listed disconnect the solar array from the battery bank when a low or no power condition occurs. This usually eliminates the need for a blocking diode.
MORNING STAR:
Constant voltage PWM. Reverse current protection (at night). No need to derate-25% design margin. High efficiency,
low self-consumption. High level of lightning protection. 5 year warranty. Tri Star is their premier controller and can handle the full 60 amps. For more information on these and other Morningstar controllers go to
