Is Larger Solar Controller Needed for Go Power Solar Extreme Charging System
Question:
The extreme solar kit will produce 27.9 amps. The solar controller will handle 30a. This setup doesn’t allow for the 25 overage buffer with the current controller. Does go Power offer a larger controller that is compatible with lithium batteries?

Expert Reply:
A larger controller with an overage buffer is not something that is available for the Go Power Solar Extreme Charging System - 570 Watt Solar Panels - 3,000 Watt Inverter Charger # 34282185.
It is also not needed because the controller on this system is actually rated for "a maximum continuous DC input current of 37.5A" as you can see by the cut out of the linked instructions of the controller.
So the safety values you were referencing are already included in the 30 amp rating, as per the manual.
I have added a link to a video review of the Go Power Charging System # 34282185 for you to check out as well.
