The controller turns the panels OFF at the appropriate time. It doesn't manufacture power from thin air. I wouldn't buy his product because he lied to me. Larry -- Democracy is when two wolves and a sheep vote on who's for dinner. Liberty is when the sheep has his own gun. IIRC, Practically A Sailor did a test and review on those units, and verified the manufacturer's claims.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Yes, Have the exact model controlling 4 x 75 watt panels. Great unit - Definitely get the IPN Remote display and battery temperature monitor. Exellent customer service - remedied my situation with class and speed. Difficult for me to tell you if 30% is accurate, but I have read outside verification of the technology, and IMO, even without the "boost" the product is worth every penny. I would recommend. I friend has one of their products, perhaps the same one. He live at anchor and relies on 4 large panels for most of his electrical needs. The last time I was aboard he did a brief demonstration, turning it off and back on. IIRC, the panels were putting out about 8 Amps without, and 10+ Amps with the boost, for a 25+% gain. I've been strongly considering getting one; I would certainly do it if I was in need of a controller, or had a large number of panels. |
