EPEVER 60A MPPT Solar Charge Controller 48V/36V/24V/12V Auto, Negative Ground Solar Controller Max 150V 4500W Input fit for Lead-Acid and Litium Battery

This charge controller has worked flawlessly for connecting my shop to my solar panels. I only wish the 60 ah controller had a true LifeP04 selection for the battery. I had no problem with the user selection and manual programming.

Absolutely awesome charge controller! I wired 12, 100 watt panels to the 60 amp mppt in a 48 volt series/ parallel...3 sets of 4 panels series together...500 ah 24 volt battery bank. I see 2.9 kwh on cloudy days 4.5-5 kwh on sunny days. I've seen as high as 1350 watts come in from 1200 watts rated panels! Don't cheap out on wire and plan out your system rite. Matching panels, batteries, equal length wires, minimum resistive points, good clean connections....and you will be happy. Thus is my 2nd epever mppt on different projects, 1 running 3 months, other 3 years. Both are perfect still and meters still read like they did out of the box.

This is my 2nd 1. The 1st last about 2 years & conked out. Fortunately I got an extended warranty that reimbursed me. So I needed a back up in case my Victrons crapped out & the 2 I have of them died within a couple days of each other so this is getting used for now but I'm getting error msg's that aren't mentioned in the user manual & that frustrates me that I don't know what it means but it still functions despite those warnings. I just wish this company would make a more comprehensive manual & as you'll see in some reviews, these aren't tanks & a lot of issues mentioned after just a brief use period so get some insurance on these, you'll more than likely have to use it.

I have 3 Of these charge controllers and one of them is now not working properly, The support that is in contact with me, seems to keep pointing to my Setup outside. The panels have been in the same place for the past few years. I also told them that if I connect one of the other charge controllers to those same panels it operates fine. So They had me Send pictures of my Panels to see where they are ( I have no trees or obstructions and the panels are facing south) I even went as far as to purchase a panel tester, and they are all in " like new shape" based on the results. The issue was reported on May 15th 2022. I will update my review based on the outcome of what Support does. The item is under warranty and should cover this defect. .... To give you an idea of what the charge controller is doing. All of a sudden, the charge controller is only showing 28 volts ( this is a 24 volt system) the current seems to go to 8+. If I disconnect the panels and reconnect them, the voltage goes up to 102v ( where it should be) then would go back to and stop at 28 volts. after a few times of "resetting" the panels, it will operate as it should. But if I do not catch this in the morning, I lose LOTS of energy because the charge controller is sitting at 28 Volts, and 8 amps (roughly) and that's only 224 watts, and my system is 1Kw!! I usually see between 800 watts or more and on cloudy days I would still get more than 224 watts. I will keep you all posted, but if you are having this problem please know you are not alone, I even found a few YouTube video's of people with the same exact issue ( they are few and far between) but it does show that is happens. UPDATE 05-19-22 Support/Warranty is not honored by this company, they treat customers as if they are their employees to try to figure out what is defective about their item. If an item is not working as described and the way the manual states, it is defective. for 11 Months, the item went from working really Well, to now needing to disconnect and reconnect my solar array everyday in order for the voltage to work properly. It sits at 28 volts when it should be102 Volts, If I do not catch it I lose a LOT of power. The picture I attached is what the controller reads each day before disconnecting and reconnecting the panels each day. ***UPDATE 5-21-22*** The company is saying they will warranty the item, They state I need to pay for shipping because they and I quote "made no profit from the sale and are actually out $12" so the item needs to be sent to China and once they receive it, they will send out the replacement. I am really wary about this because that means I will be without the controller for a LONG time, and I worry that something will happen to go wrong somewhere is the process and me the customer would suffer. It seems that lessons learned, just go with the little bit more expensive option that has warranty info with a proven track record. I've not had to pay for warranty shipping before and I've never had a company ask me to pay via PayPal like they have done. (Within the first year of warranty). So keep in mind if your item fails, you will need to take photos of your entire setup, show video of the issue, even if you have taken all steps and documented as such to them informing them of what you have tried and what was tested, even if you have another charge controller that works fine from the same company on the same panels, they have tried to say several times that it was shading, or something else that you had already debunked on your own. So long story short, since I can not be without this controller for the long period of time it takes for an item to get to China, have them receive and review it, and then send me a replacement and nothing goes wrong it could take months the way things seem to be moving mail wise. So I will continue to use this defective unit, reset it each day, while I wait for my new purchase of a charge controller from a different company and be sure to read all reviews closely (well as many as I can). Sorry for the long review but I wanted everyone to know the potential problems you could run into purchasing an EPEVER product.

Very well priced, sturdy, long lasting!!

Outstanding charge controller! Monitors your system, and gives you the feedback you need to fine tune. Bought this in place of the che charge controller I got in a kit. I would buy it again and every time I needed one. Cannot speak to highly of this fine product.

I’ve had this controller operating on 1000w of solar panels for my farm shop charging 12kwhr of batteries at 12v nominal Non stop for about two years now working perfect

Shows no amps or volts coming in from panels no lights no error code. Garbage!

Do not like programming for load control. Used and external programmable relay for inverter. Like the internal inductor for (RFI) interference suppression.

Did not last one year before it stopped working. Very disappointing as had bought this brand previously with great success.
