I still have a "make sky blue" 40A unit running and it't been reasonable other than it hunts around too much and voltage is not accurate. I told the guy in OK about the issues and he got all 'ass hurt' and flipped into an AH.... Probably why he is not selling for them anymore.
FF to current and I had a need for more power and wanted to test. Have Vitrons around to test against. The PowMr was haled as a POS and it did not disappoint!!! Settings are ridiculous, next to no manual, pretty much nothing works right. On top of that, no fan, but it does have a bigt heat sink that the MSB unit did not have. I have pushed that MSB unit to over it's KW capacity, over input voltage, etc. Has taken it all.
I recently backed it up to a single panel and it was doing 390w from a 370w panel, and confirmed with other meters. That means it's ratings are close to accurate. As for the PowMr, I will find out soon, but nearly certain it will get punted quickly.
So what others should be considered in this price point? I am also testing a Renogy inverter and it has been nothing but flawless. They prices have pushed ahead though.
