Have seen them for about $10 from China with free postage,,, ......., the local warehouses for these chinese mobs are pretty quick , the fella puts down his noodles, walks along a rack picks out the box and bungs it into a jiffy post bag or slaps his pre paid label on and courier picks it up, of course if it breaks don't bother going thru the, email supplier BS they won't answer just hit up Ebay for a refund/return it's way quicker........................
Hi @Drover , I too have seen solar controllers down that cheap and these are usually the PWM type with few if any settings. Suitable only for the back of some solar panels, I have also seen supposed MPPT controllers around the $50.00 mark and even cheaper, but these are DEFINITELY not genuine MPPT controllers in operation. I am sure you have seen many of the tests on Utube and that sorts out most of them as a waste of money. The MPPT controller that @Crusty181 has seems pretty good and looks very much like the LD Tracer Dream Series that I bought earlier. I paid a little more (at the time) because the specs suited what I wanted and the thought of a 2 year Australian warranty was comforting. At their going price of $200.00 now, I would not buy it, so I think @Crusty181 has a good deal as there are lots of "user " settings to adjust to your own requirements. @Bellbirdweb bought the Epever and seems to be satisfied, so I hope @Axl has the same satisfaction whatever unit he eventually buys. Go MPPT owners!!
