The Renogy Wanderer-Li is a 30A PWM solar charge controller is ideal for small to medium off-grid solar systems, including RVs, boats, cabins, and portable solar setups. Its compact size and robust protections make it suitable for harsh climates and mobile applications. The Wanderer Li 30A offers exceptional value with its cost-effective design compared to MPPT controllers, delivering reliable performance for budget-conscious users. Its compatibility with multiple battery types, smart charging, and optional Bluetooth monitoring make it a versatile choice for off-grid enthusiasts.
Designed with a simple interface for ease of use, the controller uses multiple LED indicators to notify users of charge status and battery information. This newly improved model has two advanced features: an RS232 port and Lithium battery charging. With the addition of the RS232 port, users can now connect and communicate with the Renogy BT-1 Bluetooth module. By adding the BT-1 to the Wanderer-Li, you can now use the smartphone app, Renogy BT, to monitor and adjust your solar system remotely. With the inclusion of the Lithium Battery Mode, the 30A negative-ground controller is now capable of charging various 12V battery types and banks, including most 12V lithium models available on the market.
