Best Solar Charge Controller for 1400W Setup with 800Ah LiFePO4 Batteries?

Asked By CuriousTraveler92 On

I'm looking to install a solar power system in my van, and I'm trying to figure out the best MPPT solar charge controller for my needs. I plan to have around 600W of solar panels on my roof, and I'll also have 800W of foldable solar panels that I can set up when parked. My battery bank will consist of eight 12V LiFePO4 batteries connected in parallel, totaling 800Ah. I'm considering Victron charge controllers but I'm a bit lost when it comes to the specifics. Any advice or recommendations on what specifications I should look for? Thanks in advance!
