Hi every one, have just received my above charger and will be installing myself, one question I have that someone may be able to answer.
it has mppt solar regulator built in so if I plug my panels into it do I need to by pass the regulator on the panels.

Hi,
Very true and the Redarc MPPT controller is a better unit than any panel mounted regulator I have seen.

Hi Pete
YES, definately bypass or remove the regulator on the panels
It may pay you to check how much voltage you are loosing in the connecting leads from the panel TOO,
