Renogy Rover 40A MPPT Solar Charge Controller for Gel, Sealed, Flooded, and Lithium Batteries

From the brand Empowered, the Renogy Rover Series Charge Controller is a suitable solution for various off-grid solar applications, designed to maximize efficiency and minimize energy waste. Since 2010, Renogy has been on a mission to change the way the world uses energy, committed to making a lasting impact on the earth by removing barriers to sustainable living and energy independence. The company's mission is to empower the energy independence of 50 million people with DIY-friendly and reliable renewable energy products by 2030.

Renogy is optimistic that humankind can achieve a sustainable future where renewables are at the core of our energy supply. The Renogy Rover MPPT Charge Controller, Renogy PWM Charge Controller, and REGO/Boost/Rover Elite are some of the company's offerings, all designed to provide users with the necessary components to build affordable off-grid solar power systems.

Renogy started as a small project by students at Louisiana State University, and with the help and support of the Louisiana Business and Technology Center, the company has grown into a flourishing enterprise. Renogy's goal is to be a driving force behind the push for sustainable living and energy independence, providing users with all the necessary components to build off-grid solar power systems at affordable prices.

The Renogy Rover 40A MPPT Solar Charge Controller offers several features, including optimal MPPT charging, auto-identification, Li-ion battery activation, and versatile load control. It also provides room for expansion, works with Bluetooth, and offers visualized energy data. When it comes to wiring, the panels can be wired either in series or parallel or a combination of both.

The Renogy Rover 40A MPPT Charge Controller can accept an input of up to 520W for a 12V system and up to 1040W for a 24V system. It does not have a built-in 40A fuse, so users should always add a fuse between the charge controller and batteries, matching the fuse size to the amperage rating of the charge controller.

Renogy's MPPT technology, known as Power Catcher, ensures the charge controller always converts the most energy by locking to the most optimal maximum power point. The Rover Series charge controllers have a nominal system voltage of 12/24V auto-detect, a maximum PV input voltage of 100VDC, and a rated charge current of 40A. They also offer various electrical protections, a protection level of IP32, and an operating temperature range of -35°C to 45°C (-31°F to 113°F).

The Renogy Rover 40A MPPT Charge Controller features a die-cast aluminum design for excellent heat dissipation and a high tracking efficiency of up to 99% and a peak conversion efficiency of 98%, making it an ideal charging solution even in cloudy environments. It also automatically detects 12V or 24V DC system voltages (for non-lithium battery types) and provides full system protection, including safeguards against reverse polarity, battery overcharging, battery over-discharging, overload, short-circuiting, and reverse current.

The charge controller also features a 4-stage safely charging process for lead-acid batteries and a 2-stage charging process for lithium batteries, as well as diverse load control options, allowing users to connect DC appliances directly to the optional load terminals and monitor consumption or set up timer controls directly from the controller.
