Flexible solar Charger

Thoroughly impressed with the Tracking and charging capabilities. This solar charger broadens the capabilities and efficiency of my solar panels. It also has programmable features that extends the lifetime of my battery banks. All these features are worth what I paid. I'm looking to buy several more in the near future.Read full review...

pretty good - no serious complaints

This controller works great. I do wish it used a little less power on stand-by, as my region can have many days in a row (in winter) with no sun. I also have a small array system (I overbought for expansion purposes), so part of the low power issues are on me.

I do have it integrated with my inverter and Mate 3.

My only complaint is 1) a little pricey, but you get a TON of options... so you get what you pay for. and 2) I seem to get 10%ish better charge capacity from my midnite charge controller. Meaning the midnite controller is more efficient by a long shot.

NOTE: The midnite controller manages a wind turbine (which the Outback) is not rated for. That might be a "wish" item, as if all items are Outback, then I could use the mate3 to control/manage power better.

Works all the time, display gives me more data than any other device.

This is my third Outback controller, the only system component I have never had a problem with and will continue to buy and use. I have a solar generator in the bed of my 2014 Ram 3500 to power my 27 foot Airstream in boondocking situations and to charge every conceivable battery operated tool we own. 1000 watts of panels on top of a contractor's shell and 6 48 volt Chevy Volt batteries in the bed. The Outback controller and remote meter ties the whole 48 volt system together and provides seamless power.

My two other Outback controllers control solar arrays in off grid shops. Being able to tailer the output to the tenth of a volt really is awesome.

solid, reliable, good value.

There are a lot of cheap MPPT controllers out there these days. I know I can trust the outback controller, it works like a charm, just like my other on that is several years old.

In my opinion the best.

Very good quality. Easy to install and almost no setup. Work right out of the box. Lots of functions (if you need them) and reports. This is still the golden standard for charge controller.

Work great, but should have a volume discount.

Good quality. Price is fair if you buy just 1, however I bought 4 totaling almost $2000. Wouldn't you think a discount on the next one I buy might be in order?

Works to perfection.

What can one say about absolute perfection in a product. Works so much better than expected. We're 100% satisfied with our Outback Flexmax 80.
