Review: Excellent Value and Performance, maybe? - Original Review - June 2014 I used the Schumacher charge controller after having a disappointing experience with a competing model from battery tender. The battery tender model gave me a fast flashing yellow light that indicated that the charge controller was defective. desertcart gave me a full refund. I purchased two of the Shumacher controllers. The first one went to use right away and is excellent. Notice that it includes the connectors on the charger, the connectors are clearly labeled, and the charge allows for a Battery connection, solar panel connection, and a load connection. It also provides LED status lights to aid you in your diagnostics and panel placement (it tells you when you have a low and high power orientation to the sun). I have also purchased solar chargers from sun force (that I like, but not as much as this one). The sun force 7a model lasted two years, and then needed to be replaced. Updated Review June 24, 2014 The second charge controller was used with a 50w panel (the charge controller is rated to 100W). I plugged it into the panel with full sun and none of the lights on the charge controller were lit. Keeping it plugged in, I checked the wiring. The charge controller started to smoke, the smoke was coming from the opening where the wires exit the unit. I picked up the controller and it burned my hand. I unplugged all wires and desertcart agreed to exchange it. Because I like the design, I am going to give it another try. Review: Need this part!!! - Ok I'm not sure I'm going to write this properly cause I'm not to knowledgeable in solar anything. All l know without this part there is no control on the fluctuating temperature. Yes it works in the shade but the temperature is no where near stable without this piece.
