[RE-wrenches] morning star ts-mppt-60-600

[Larry Crutcher, Starlight Solar Power Systems]

Hello William,

There is a hassle factor with the Morningstar MPPT controllers. If you need a custom charge setting, and I do most of the time, then you must download and install software, use a RS-232 data cable, and reprogram settings from a Windoz PC. That's SO 1980's!.

We don't sell many Morningstar controllers because many of our battery systems are Lifeline, Sun Xtender or FullRiver AGM batteries. None of the DIP switch settings are right for those batteries. Also, none are right, but close, for Trojan or Crown batteries which we also sell. Besides that, I left the world of Microsoft many moons ago and I also can't find my DB9 cables anywhere.
