Features of Solar Panel Charge Controller - Lumiax MPPT MC2010 Bluetooth
Integrated Bluetooth so the solar system can be monitored on your Apple or Android phone without needing to buy additional displays or bluetooth modules.
Very quiet due to natural cooling. It has a large heat sink for a controller of this size. Other controllers have a fan which may not be ideal in a small environment like in campervans or caravans.
Multiple protections including solar and battery reverse polarity, solar short-circuit, solar over-current, battery over-voltage, battery over discharge, over temperature protection.
Many compatible batteries types including automatic detection of 12 or 24V.
Current restriction which is not a common feature on solar charge controllers. It can be very useful for generating extra power in UK winters.
Look after your LiFePO4 batteries since it is very simple to change the charging parameters if you wish to maximise the life of your batteries.

MPPT vs PWM
Charge controllers are either Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) or Pulse Width Modulation (PWM). They can look identical, but have different electronics inside.
Benefits of MPPT
Recommendation
For caravans, yachts and campervans, where there is often limited space for solar panels and often shade, we recommend MPPT solar charge controllers.
Protection measures
Compatibility
- Compatible with lithium batteries including LiFePO4.
- Max solar input is 260W at 12V or 520W with 24V battery system.
- Max solar voltage is 100V (Open Circuit Voltage – Voc) – equivalent to 90V at 25°C.
- Compatible with 12V and 24V battery systems.
- Not recommended for use in the marine industry due to the lower waterproof rating of IP32.
