Hi. I have a rover 20 amp solar controller. I have a 100 amp panel attached via a powerpole . Wondering if I can charge the battery through the solar input of the controller but using my NOCO 7.5 amp charger. Just want to elimitate extra wire contentions to battery. Wouldn't do solar and NOCO at same time. Just wondering if controller could handle AC charger. Thank you.

My first instinct is, no, absolutely not. Your charger is a "smart" charger and needs to see what the battery state is directly, just as the controller does. Feeding it through the controller would interfere with that.
All chargers should meet at the battery so they can do their job properly.
