30A MPPT Charge Controller, 150V
Click Here for the KID sizing tool from Midnite!
Midnite's new 30 amp MPPT charge controller for Solar, (and Wind or Hydro too in Q2 2014 with firmware updates)! The KID is the most versatile medium-sized charge controller on the market. Ideal for small renewable energy systems, the KID allows for true input paralleling. As your power needs grow, add more modules to the array, and a second KID. This will give twice the power from a single array! ** The Marine version comes standard with the mounting bracket, 4ft of flexible conduit, battery temp sensor and extra conformal coating.
