I wasn't sure about this MPPT controller but after a month of use I think it's very good.
Installed it into my homemade trailer. I have 600 Watts of power coming into the controller.Everything seems to be working as it should.

Works as it should
I use this as part of my solar system in my RV. Works as it should and have had no issues.

Amazing solar charger, but no low-temp sensor
I saw some reviews on YouTube about LiTime, and they have been proven to be great. I wanted to try out their charger controller and have been happy with it so far.The mounting options are nice, but the screen is a bit dim and the button selections are a bit awkward at first to learn. If you want to turn on the Load then it is a whole process; if your intent is to mess with the load buttons then it would be best to buy the Bluetooth add on for this device.The package comes with a temperature sensor, but the sensor only works for lead acid to see when the battery gets too hot; however it most people are going to use LiFePO4 batteries and I wish that sensor would have checked for freezing temps to cut off charging when it is too cold.The charging possibilities are amazing, with a 48v system it can charge faster than my other expensive solar charger.. I love the possibilities and the hobby of learning about solar. Very cool device.

Garbage. Avoid.
If the title didn’t do it for you, here’s the short version: Camper came w/ solar + controller from company X. I’m not rich. I have to save for purchases. I call X. Ordered a controller on their recommendation . 1 year later as the plans execute, company X “oh, not THAT one”. I was offended by the non-refundable bait and switch. Bought this one from LiTime. Specs fit. Installed myself. I am in Wyoming after month 3 of 4 on the road. This thing has never worked right. Punchline: if it’s cool in the trailer it’ll charge. If it’s NOT, it shuts itself off AND runs a cooling fan OFF OF THE BATTERY ITS SUPPOSED TO BE CHARGING. The manual says it should run till 122 degF. I’m calling you know what. See the pic. Consistently when it gets 85-90 in my little camper (as in a sunny day in Wyoming with about 79 in the shade and 85 in the naked sun when I’m off-grid camping and fishing and REALLY hoping my battery is charging so I don’t have to burn gas to run the genny) this thing shuts off. No solar conversion AT ALL and the insult to that injury is that its own cooling fan is spinning like crazy. I try to be an optimist. I held an ice pack I keep for a bad knee around the housing of this thing until it was cold to the touch. Did it start working? Nope. This thing has seriously hamstrung my retirement coast to coast travel and would have gone in the gargantuan long ago if I were able to sit still long enough.

STAY AWAY
Now, I cant speak yet towards the reliability of their products (been < week), but this company certainly knows how to do it all right.I ordered this controller along with two of their 100Ah Lipos.Everything is packaged well. The items seem to be of great quality. The instructions are well designed, with GOOD English. All the parts, screws, brackets, mounting templates are included.The charge controller has huge terminal holes and feels solid. Terminals are labeled front AND bottom. Wow. Setup is pretty much PnP for 12v Lipos.The one less than stellar thing is the app. Uggh.First, HUGE!!! points for not requiring all the BS permissions so they can watch what you say/where you go/what you eat/etc. Nope. Just the bluetooth stuff it needs to function. Nothing more.The app itself is nowhere near the level of the physical stuff. Not much info. Font size issues. Odd BT connectivity issues. But, at least you can see the basics from your phone/tablet.So far, I a big fan. If the stuff proves to be reliable, and they improve the app some. They will continue to be my first choice in this product category.UPDATE (April '24):Horrible support and horrible products. 5 months in, I switched the PV from a 12v setup to a 48v (39v actual) one. With the controller still set to a battery voltage of 12v, it sent the full 39v to the batteries and my 3000W inverter.The inverter blew up. Sounded like bacon cooking and filled the entire room with smoke before it went dark and I could trip the inline fuse.This is unacceptable. I verified a couple times with a meter that it was outputting the full 39 volts while set to 12v. That is an epic failure and could have started a fire if I wasnt home.The company only responds during the early morning hours and ignores most of what you say only to ask you for info you already provided. Over and over. 24 hour wait each time.My PV array maxes out at 1800W @ 39v (more like 1200W in reality). So, even though the system supports 48v, it only supports 900W for a 12v battery. So, I apparently, in theory could have "exceeded the wattage" and it outputted the full voltage even though the system was set to 12v. Seriously. A MPPT. That's what they said.Started out so good but ended up being so much worse than all the stuff I used before. I hooked up the Ampinvt controller (that the LiTime controller replaced) and its working perfectly (39v IN -> 14v out) - with a new inverter.LiTime now refuses to replace the defective charge controller and the battery that was clearly damaged as a result - even though they are both still under warranty.Dont make the LiTime mistake!
