Pros & Cons
Pros
Only complaint is that the pre made cables and the charge controller seem fairly cheaply made.
W trickle charger is a good option to maintain a large battery or recharge a small battery from very minor discharges. Got it for our trolling motor on the boat. It's mounted on my small travel trailer.
Cons
The control module is probably defective. Instructions say must run inline fuse. Only has a single usb slot and no way to plug a light in.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to set up and charges my battery used for bear deterrent around bee hives
Works very well and is easy to install.
So far no deer, racoon or bear has managed to breach the defenses and my corn grows unmolested.
Dessapointed in the connectors to the batteries.
Price
The charge controller in mine didn't work, but since they are only like $20 i just bought another one.
Cost effective for portable low demand solar power.
