Is this a good controller for a LiFePO4 and a 160 watt panel?


Recommended Posts

I  have just ordered a very pricey LiFePO4 battery to go with my 160 watt solar panel.  Now I want a MPPT controller and I was hoping someone here could confirm this is the correct controller for the battery and panel.  I believe it is the correct controller but I would like a second opinion please.

With a MPPT Bluetooth Communication Module so I can monitor the solar system from my Amazon Kindle:
