Frequently Asked Questions
How should I wire my panels with Rover Lite MPPT solar charge controller?
The Renogy Rover Lite 60A MPPT solar charge controller supports series, parallel, or a series-parallel combination for solar panel connections. With its 150V maximum solar input, you can connect up to six 100W Renogy solar panels in series or eleven 100W Renogy solar panels in parallel.
What are the advantages of Renogy charge controller?
Renogy Rover Lite MPPT solar charge controllers use Power Catcher MPPT algorithm to maximize energy conversion by locking to the most optimal maximum power point. Designed for various off-grid applications, this solar charge controller is compatible with Lithium, AGM, and Gel batteries, making it ideal for home, RV, marine, and workshop power systems.
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?
The Load terminal on the Rover Lite solar charge controller allows you to connect 12V DC appliances, as long as they do not exceed 20A. For AC power usage, an inverter is required. The Renogy charge controller must always be connected to a battery bank, and the inverter should be connected directly to the battery rather than the load terminals. The load terminals are typically used for low-power DC devices rather than high-power inverters.
If I connect a 300W 24V solar panel to the Renogy Rover Lite MPPT solar charge controller, will it convert the 24V?
Yes, the Rover Lite 60A MPPT solar charge controller is designed to handle up to 900W with a 12V battery bank. This Renogy charge controller will regulate the excess voltage from your 300W 24V solar panel, converting it into usable amperage to charge your battery efficiently. As for your inverter, as long as you do not exceed the max rated voltage of your Inverter (12 volts) , it will be fine.
