Benefits of a Solar Controller
It is important to include a controller in a solar power system.

Reduces Cost of Battery Replacements
The low voltage disconnect will increase battery life. The loads are
automatically disconnected when the battery is low and automatically
reconnected after the battery is recharged. Complete charging will increase battery life and storage capacity. The controller will maximize the amount of solar energy into the battery and avoid drying out the battery.

Provides Useful Information
LEDs display status information and battery level which helps the user to better operate the solar power system.
