 WORKS GREAT & FULL FEATURES FOR THE PRICE! November 30, 2006

* I hooked up a small 40 watt Solar System at my home. Bought this Sunforce 60012 7 amp Charge Controller and everything worked Great. The LED came on and the controller sent the power to the battery even in low cloudy days with no sun. I saw some hype online about MorningStar's 'SunGuard SG-4' (& it's PWM) and it's fancy line graph showing how it was far superior to other controllers. Bought one for $27.oo and $11.oo shipping tacked on from another vendor), swapped it out with this SUNFORCE 60012 Controller hoping for a big improvement. Waited for morning... and put my volt meter on the system only to find the SunGuard SG-4 (with NO LED) was still sound asleep! Zero volts passing through it! So I immediately removed the SunGuard SG-4 and re-installed the SUNFORCE 60012 Charge Controller I purchased here from Amazon. Poof... back to producing 12 Volts from my solar panels and the hazy sky had no sign of sun. The SunGuard SG-4 is now on it's way to the local landfill... and the SUNFORCE 60012 has a permanent home in my home solar power system. Sunforce's LED is glowing and the Solar 12 Volts are flowing to my battery again. Stick with the SUNFORCE 60012 it is far superior and WORKS like it's supposed to. Call me old-fashioned... I think that's why I bought the SUNFORCE (& the 'SunGuard SG-4' ~ 4 amp w/ No LED )in the first place? # SUNFORCE 60012 7 amp Charge Controller #: Low price and High Quality and it actually does what it's supposed to do! "Go figure..." :-) 5 STARS!!
* [[ JUNE 2, 2008 Update: R.I.P. ]] This SUNFORCE 60012 ended it's service today. It worked great since Nov. 2006, but today it just went into a confused state. Amber and Green LED light stayed ON, even with battery disconnected. Voltage was still being fed through, but I was afraid it was going to overcharge the solar battery.
[] I had purchased a Sunsei 10amp Sunsei 10 Amp Solar Charge Controller #SE-CC10000 a while back as a 'back up' solar charger. I installed the Sunsei 10 Amp and it was NOT WORKING at all on it's first use. So the Sunsei has received bad reviews from others on Amazon, I can't even give the Sunsei 10 Amp I had a "ONE STAR" Rating. Sorry about that.
[] ***** [June 9, 2008] I just installed an "Xantrex C12" Solar Charge Controller (Cost Lest than $90.), 12Amp, 12V ~ "Wow" it is the BEST! It has a special feature [Nite-Lite Mode] where you can add a 12V Light(s) and it will (time is fully manually adjustable by a dial OR can be set "dusk to dawn.") control the length of time that the light will stay 'ON' after darkness. The 'Xantrex C12' is now my high quality solar charger of choice.
The Sunforce worked great even if for only almost 2 years of 24/7 use, The Sunforce is a bargain and quality product for the price.
[*] Thanks Amazon, Good Luck with your NYS Lawsuit over collecting NYS Sales Tax from us New York AMAZON online buyers. It will be effecting my Amazon future purchases, sad to say... Amazon is the BEST!!

I have this unit connect to two automotive 12V batteries with three 15W panels connect to it. So far the charger works as advertised by preventing battery drain when the sun goes down and charging while the panels are producing at least 13 volts. It is pretty much an install and forget item. Additionally I have those same two batteries tied into one of my trucks 12V power points so that the batteries charge when the vehicle is running by way of the alternator. Even with this double charging set up, the charge controller appears unphased and shows a charge light in the daytime and has on two occasions indicated a fully charged green light.

Two wires to the battery and two wires to the solar panel. It doesn't get much simplier than that. Worked flawlessly out of the box. Yellow LED indicates charging while green LED indicates the battery is charged.

Functions just as advertised-please see my other reviews to see what you can use it for. Much better than jury-rigging an old auto voltage regulator as it automatically protects from overcharge or overload. A car regulator will fry unless its an old fashioned electro-mechanical and that would be less efficient than this product. Great item!
The Controller works great October 13, 2007
