Reliability & efficiency down to a science.
Marine | RV | Industrial | Military | Street Lighting | Off-Grid
Get your money’s worth with Genasun. A true problem-solver, the unique GVB charge controller with MPPT allows a lower-voltage solar panel to charge higher-voltage batteries. Want to charge a 24V battery with a 48-cell solar panel? No problem. A 48V battery from a 12V panel? We’ve got you covered. With 99% peak efficiency, they are the industry’s most efficient voltage-boosting controllers. True MPPT delivers consistent performance, unlike the “Nominal MPPT” of competitors. The advanced electronics inside the controller are encased in a proprietary potting compound making them ideal for golf-cart, marine, and vehicle applications.
- Waterproof
- 99% peak efficiency
- In-line fuse
- Ultra-fast true MPP Tracking
- Excellent low-light performance
- Wire leads for easy installation
