New to this forum stuff and originally posted this in Technical when I probably should've asked my question here. Anyways. Having a hard time deciding just which charge controller I should buy?? The price for the Renogy 40A Commander and the Renogy 40A Rover are pretty close with the exception of having to get the MT-50 monitor. I'm currently using 2-100 watt Renogy solar panels and plan on purchasing a couple more in the near future. Any thoughts or options would be appreciated. Thanks

Thanks I have the same question; I am using 4- 100 watt Renogy panels and maybe up to 2 more in future.....any responses? |

After much response or should I say lack of, I decided on going with the 40a Rover. Figured newer is better and it has the display on it. I was told though that the Rover can handle only 4 panels whereas the Commander can handle 5 panels. After getting it all setup and running I'll let you know how it turned out. Hopefully I made the right choice. Until then, Peace ✌️

Yes this forum is not the best for solar advice, there are more helpful solar sites out there you just have to search. But back to your question. I bought the Renogy 400 watt eclipse premium kit. It came with the 40amp commander CC, keep in mind I'm new to solar also but this commander seems great but I don't like the MT-50 it seems cheap. It could be me but I have sat and went over the directions and even called custermer service and talked for awhile with a very nice guy. Just my opinion but I spent top dollar on the Renogy kit and I think the MT-50 is the only flaw.
