Nature Power8 Amp Charge Controller

Obviously my old charge controller hasn't been working properly for some time now as when I used my new controller my batteries charged much faster. So glad I bought this. This was much cheaper here on Amazon than Ebay.

Works as designed

The electronics in this may work fine, but I never got a chance to find out. It's built with some bizarre connectors much like you'd find on a trailer light kit, for hooking the trailer to the car's brake light system. The wires you're expected to connect your solar panel to are ridiculously small, and would create such resistance as to rob you of much of your voltage. A solar panel needs 12 gauge wires, minimum, but this thing comes with 18 gauge.I tried to cut and splice, but the few tiny strands inside the wires wouldn't have it without burning up insulation. Finally gave up and ordered Instapark's controller.Too bad, because the 14v set point on this was attractive. I'll do without, though.

Works pretty good, I never need to charge my boat batteries.

I bought this controller to replace the original one that came with the panel. The first one only lasted a few months. I thought rather than buy a whole new unit I’d take a chance on this. It’s worked ok for a couple months. Time will tell.

Work as described.Good value

Excellent

This was a replacement purchase. Original device lasted 5+ years before internal wires broke at solder points.
