Solar charge controllers and inverters serve distinct roles in a solar power system. While both are essential, they have different functions. A solar charge controller is a device that manages the power going into the battery bank from the solar array. It ensures that the batteries do not overcharge and maintains their longevity.
Solar charge controller takes steady and efficient charge to battery in solar system. It can also protect battery by preventing overcharge, overdischarge and other dangers. Eco-worthy offers MPPT and PWM controller, battery inverter and all-in-one inverter charger for multiple different solar power systems.
Unlike battery inverters, most MPPT solar charge controllers can be used with various battery voltages from 12V to 48V. For example, most smaller 10A to 30A charge controllers can charge either a 12V or 24V battery, while most larger capacity or higher input voltage charge controllers are designed for 24V or 48V battery systems.
Inverter.com offers you two kinds of solar charge controllers, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) controllers and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) controllers. In addition, the all-in-one unit - solar inverter with MPPT charge controller is also available for off-grid solar systems.

Not everyone using solar panels needs a charge controller. Generally, a charge controller is essential in situations involving a significant amount of current, which could overcharge or damage the battery. But if you are using small solar panels that output a limited amount of current and voltage, you likely don’t need a solar charge controller.
