DESCRIPTION
【Monitoring with Renogy ONE Core】 Add Renogy ONE Core to achieve smart energy monitoring with intuitive visuals and real-time data. It is an upgraded streamlined energy with our 3-in-1 smart panel.
【Innovative MPPT Design】 Die-cast aluminium design ensuring excellent heat dissipation and Renogy Maximum Power Point Tracking technology with a high tracking efficiency of up to 99% and peak conversion efficiency of 98%. It is the best charging solution even in cloudy environments where the max power point of the solar panels will fluctuate all day.
【12V/24V Automatically Detect】 Automatically detects 12V or 24V DC system voltages (for Non-Lithium battery types), and the LCD screen and multiple LED indicators display the solar charging and battery operation information, customizable parameters, and error codes.
【Full System Protection】 Meant to safeguard your system, the self-diagnostic capability can assess and protect against reverse polarity, battery overcharging, battery over-discharging, overload, short-circuiting, and reverse current.
【4-Stage Safely Charging】 Features 4-stage charging (Bulk, Absorption, Float, and Equalization) of Lead Acid Batteries and 2-stage charging (Bulk and Absorption) for Lithiuim batteries as well as Lithium Reactivation.
【Diverse Load Control】 Connect DC appliances directly to the optional Load Terminals and monitor consumption or set up timer controls directly from the controller.
【Remote Monitoring】 The RS232 communication port allows the Renogy Rover charge controller to communicate with the DC Home app and Renogy ONE M1 via the Renogy BT-1 Bluetooth module (highly recommend to add-on ). This will enable you to monitor the status and productivity of your panels on the go.

 

The Renogy 40A Rover MPPT Charge Controller is the most efficient type of charge controller. With up to 99% tracking efficiency, the Rover ensures maximum power point solar charging that gets more energy to your battery bank. Capable of automatically detecting 12V/24V lead acid battery systems, this crucial component is preset to also work with Gel, Flooded (wet cell), and Sealed batteries(manual setting is required for 24V Lithium battery). When paired with the Renogy BT-1 Module and DC Home app you can view system performance in real-time and make parameter changes without having to get up!

1. How should I wire my panels with an MPPT charge controller?

 
The panels can be wired either in series or parallel or a combination of series/parallel.

2. What is the max wattage input on the Rover 40?

 

The Renogy Rover 40A MPPT Solar Charge Controller can accept input of up to 520W for a 12V system, and up to 1040W for a 24V system.

3. Does the Rover 40A MPPT charge controller have a built-in 40A fuse for the rated 40A load output?

 
No. Please always add a fuse between the charge controller and batteries. To determine the fuse size, you can match it to the amperage rating of the charge controller. If you have one of our 40A charge controllers, we recommend using a 40A ANL fuse.

4. What are the advantages of Renogy MPPT technology?

 
Renogy Rover Series solar charge controllers use Power Catcher MPPT algorithm to always ensure the charge controller converts most energy by locking to the most optimal maximum power point.
5. How many watts can Renogy Rover 40 amp charge controller handle?
 
The Rover MPPT charge controller can work with standard off-grid 12/24V solar panels with high voltage or multiple panels with voltage up to 100V. And the maximum combined input solar power is 520W for a 12V battery system or 1040W for a 24V system. In particular, this controller will significantly increase the efficiency of a solar system where the solar panel voltage is much higher than the battery voltage.

6. What is a Solar Charge Controller and what is MPPT?

 
The Charge Controller takes the power made by the solar panels and transform the ‘solar panel power’ into a form of power that the batteries can use. MPPT stands for Maximum Power Point Tracking, and it relates to the solar cell itself. Each solar cell has a point at which the current (I) and voltage (V) output from the cell result in the maximum power output of the cell. MPPT ensures that you get the most power possible from your solar panels at any point in time. It is particularly effective during low light level conditions.

7. What does 40A on MPPT charge controller mean?

 
40A represents the max amount of amps the controller can output going INTO THE BATTERIES.

8. What are the advantages of Renogy MPPT technology?

 
Renogy Rover series solar charge controller uses the most advanced Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) technology to track solar panels' maximum power voltage point as it varies depending on sunlight exposure and temperature. This technology ensures the maximum efficiency of your solar system and significantly outperforms standard PWM solar controllers. Another benefit of MPPT technology is the wide solar input voltage range. This controller can work with standard off-grid 12/24V solar panels and with high voltage or multiple panels with voltage up to 100V.

    No surprises - working as expected

    Posted by Morgan on Dec 28th 2023

    Kind of limited on how to evaluate the charger since it's not going head to head with any other chargers. For starters, it's quite large. I did buy more capacity than I needed because it came with a free Core. But the 20a version is not much smaller. So finding a place to mount this in an RV is a bit of an exercise. Install is straight-forward. Why they don't include a template for the bolt pattern on the charger escapes me. Getting screws located correctly is the hardest part. The wire clamps for the input/output are also easy to mess up. You need to back them off very far in order to make sure you open enough for the clamps to do their job. Basic stuff, but it's more turns with a screwdriver than you might expect. The included BT-1 module is plug and play. It comes with a very long cord, so be prepared to coil and hide it or if you have the tools, skills and willingness to risk the warranty, cut it down and install a new connector. It also has a blindingly bright blue LED. In a motorhome, this shines like a lighthouse beacon in the middle of the night. Hiding the module or a bit of black electrical tape is kind of a necessity if it is in your line of sight. The Core works great so far. Very nice touchscreen and display. It makes you want more devices plugged in since just a charger is kind of minimal. Should be a good seller for Renogy and drive additional adoption of smart products. The RV Leveler is nice. I have leveling jacks, so this really just confirms what my auto-leveler knows, but it is still a nice feature. A few rough edges with the Core software and DC Home App. Dates on the solar yield in the app are not formatted in "'Merica" and instead are DD/MM. Most likely a foreign software team used a local format. Easy enough to fix down the road. The delays in reporting solar yield are also significant. Usually about a day and a half before it shows up. Also a software issue, so something that will probably get fixed. Overall, good package.
