Review on ๐Ÿ”‹ SolarEpic Battery Temperature Sensor and Monitoring Adapter: Enhanced RS485 to USB Connectivity for Tracer MPPT by Jason Spainhour

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Cable length poorly thought out

Temperature cable is longer than it really should be (I mean, who places their batteries 6-8 feet from the charge controller? Thick wire is expensive and voltage drops unnecessary log work degrades performance) and the USB cable is too short. (Who puts a computer within 4 feet of their charge controller?) But for everything they do, they work as advertised with no noise or fuss. SolarEpic: If you listen. try changing the cable length. Temperature sensor cables would be GOOD at 4ft long, and a 6-10ft USB cable would most likely be fine for actual people use.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Not sure
