Pros & Cons
Cons
There are indications the solar panel charge controller is also erratic in operation. Just like clockwork, the warranty expires and i start experiencing the failing equipment. Waste of time installing it, and then removing it.
Highlights
Quality
It feels very solid and well built!
Installed it a year ago in my truck and it’s keeping my auxiliary battery fully charged works great would recommend it
The charge line in my truck is fused at 40 amps and this shouldn’t draw anymore than 30 amp.
Hooked it up and had input wires reversed and heard a little pop changed the wires around unit didn’t work .
