Words from the field:
Victron MPPT controller
"Speaking of things that can take over your life, I paired [my new solar] panels with a very neat Victron BlueSolar MPPT controller with Bluetooth dongle.
This contraption connects to an iOS or computer app that allows you to track exactly what’s going on and change any settings you like. How cool is that?
Not only does it show you live data (you can see the changes as clouds or shadows cross the panels!!) it logs history so that you can analyze performance over time."
