It supports up to 1300 W of solar at 12V, 2600 W at 24V, 3900 W at 36V and 5200 W at 48V, and it works with sealed, gel, flooded and lithium deep cycle batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is made for large solar projects, both mobile and stationary. If one controller is not enough, Renogy lets you connect two Rover 100A controllers in parallel for a total of 200 A, using the paralleling cable in the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRenogy Rover 100A MPPT Solar Charge Controller Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAutomatic 12V, 24V, 36V and 48V Detection\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnect the battery and the controller determines the system voltage.

The maximum terminal size is 25 mm2 (4 AWG). Leave at least 6 inches (150 mm) of clearance above and below, and never install it in a sealed enclosure with flooded batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eThis May Be A Good Fit If\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou run a 24V, 36V or 48V battery bank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour array is larger than smaller controllers can accept\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want room to parallel a second 100A controller\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want phone monitoring through Bluetooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes It Work With Lithium Batteries?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
