Good item, would be better for my use.

Nice piece, I would have liked it better if it was 6 inches longer. There were also no instructions on how best to attach the battery.

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Functionality

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Will not work in generators or portable power supplies

I don't know what else to say, just doesn't work. It seems like bad business to me not to include one of those solar charge controller cables that it should communicate with and a poor quality product makes it worse. Sent back for a refund.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Slightly torn

If you want to sound like the cool guy around, you need this

No useful info or ability to adjust settings via bluetooth which isn't available via the control panel. I can just get up and walk 35ft if that's a problem as the Bluetooth range is less anyway. Walking and selecting a button takes less time than booting up a computer.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Some bugs

Each cable was exactly what I needed and very easy to install, thank you.

Each of these cables was necessary for me to install the solar panel. The temperature sensor is connected to the charge controller and allows the charge controller to measure the temperature of the batteries so it knows not to increase the current too much and overheat the batteries. And the RS-485 cable is for connecting a Windows computer to the charge controller to record and display data from solar panels and batteries. Exactly what I needed

Pros
  • inspires confidence
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Outdated software, blue screen on my computer running Windows 10. Attach to Blue Booth engine. Not intuitive at all. I was really looking forward to using this to keep track of my usage and stats throughout the day. But after spending far more time getting it to work than I should have (without instructions) it lacked brilliance. It shows everything you see on the MT50 remote and you can program it BUT I noticed one thing that bothers me. I am using LiFepo4 cells with my charge controller andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Some difficulties
