10-Amp solar controller with PWM technology regulates solar panel output to provide consistent amperage to your RV batteries. Protects battery from harmful overcharging and uses automatic multistage charging to extend battery life.
Features:
Specs:
This solar controller prevents harmful overcharging by adjusting the power generated by a solar panel before it reaches your RV batteries. It uses pulse width modulation technology to regulate the output through pulses that provide a consistent charge. Typically, this type of technology is a good fit for smaller systems with lower voltages.
Using a multistage charging system, the controller automatically switches voltages while the battery bank charges. This accelerates the charge, but also helps extend battery life by adjusting the voltage during the different modes. The controller is compatible with multiple battery types and includes preset charging profiles for sealed/gel, AGM, flooded/wet cell, and lithium batteries.
The backlit, digital display acts as an information center for your solar panel output. It shows the charging current, battery voltage, and battery state of charge. It also allows you to input your battery type and choose a charging profile. Additionally, a built-in USB port on the front of the controller provides a convenient outlet to charge your cell phone or tablet.
Lastly, the controller includes several built-in safety features to help protect your equipment. The charging process will shut down if the controller starts to overheat and when an overcurrent is detected. Also, if the battery or solar panel is wired incorrectly, it activates a reverse polarity alarm.
The solar controller flush-mounts to a wall inside your RV. It is wired to the solar panel using MC4 cables. Then, the battery bank is wired to the terminals on the controller. You can also install a fuse or circuit breaker (sold separately) up to 10 amps between the solar controller and battery for additional current protection.

Great product, nice update to my old Go Power.
Every time I call with an order Karen is amazing! She is the friendliest and most helpful associate I've dealt with.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Brought this as a upgrade to my original GP-PWM-30 which did not specifically support a Lithium battery profile. Also for the remote Bluetooth Android App. Looked around for a MPPT solar controller that supported Dual Battery Banks without finding a suitable one. So I want back to this GoPower brand of PWM controller that did. It has performed as expected and the upgrades made seem to have increased the amount of AmpHours drawn from my solar panels by a small amount. I still wish it had been fully upgraded to a MPPT controller.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Was quite pleased with this controller and the solar panel that I got through etrailer. This controller has a much more detailed power display than the one it replaced. It was easy to install and was able to hook up 2 solar panels making my dry camping, which makes up about 95% of what I do, much better knowing that my batteries are fully charged.

I have always received excellent service and fair pricing from etrailer. Go Power is an excellent product.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
This is an upgrade to the original Go-Power Solar Controller that came with my Lance TT. It will easily handle the increased production from the additions of a portable solar generator. The small increase in the backside dimensions forced me to slightly increase the opening to allow it to fit. The screw holes aligned perfectly. Before buying a replacement for your unit that has a malfunctioning display screen, you might try to disconnect the battery then return the power... it might reset for you.

I like your tracking software. The order was delayed because of poor weather conditions in Kansas City but still came to me on the expected date. All was in good condition. I replace the old controller with this updated one and it was a simple install and the whole system works great now. Thanks

etrailer.com is our go-to source for our trailer and motorhome parts and upgrades. We've always been more tha pleased with not only their service and prices but also the quality of the website including the product descriptions and expecially the helpful videos. This most recent purchase, a GoPower Solar Charger is awesome! This is a direct replacement for our failing Speciality Concepts Mark PV Controller. This unit fit perfectly into the existing opening and the mounting screws lined up. This GoPower controller charges the battery bank considerably faster and far more efficiently. Our battery voltage memains higher and the "boost" feature quickly tops off the battery during higher useage. As an added bonus, this is able to charge a secondary battery bank which we use to charge and maintain the engine batteries in our motorhome. Finally, it's easy to use and can handle many battery types including Lithium. What a great value!
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Works well. Is very much seamless in its operation . Ocassionally the Bluetooth interface to my iPhone would need to be re established but it seems app updates may have eliminated that issue. With 300 watts of panel it is able to bring two batteries up from 50% charge to full charge in a day and a half during summer. Fit my lance 1172 pickup camper perfectly. Panel knockout and wiring were already in place from factory.

This dual bank controller is what every RV needs. It charges the camper first as primary, then charges the chassis starting battery secondary. Never a dead starting battery since. RV sits all winter to full charged batteries in the Spring.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
I needed an upgraded solar controller to be able to charge my LiFePO4 batteries. I also did not want to have to cut another hole in the camper wall, but be able to use the same spot without modification. The installation was a perfect replacement.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
After upgrading my Lance 1475 to lithium batteries I swapped out my original go power charge controller to this. Fits the same cutout, easy to install, and works great!
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
No complaints works as advertised. Good product. Installed in my 27 FB airstream.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
This product replaces the original solar controller that didn't have a lithium battery charging profile. All I had to do was switch 4 wires. The new controller has the same dimensions as the old, so no modifications were necessary.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Upgraded the controller to charge new battle borne lithium batteries, works good, I like the usb charging port.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Bought this to up grade our current Go Power solar controller so that can do lithium. The Bluetooth is a nice add on as well. First time using etrailer. They had the best price and quickly shipped to Canada. Will consider etrailer for future purchases.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Replaced a Go Power controller that did not have a lithium battery setting. Had the same footprint so it was a easy install. Working great! Install in a LTV TB RV.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Perfect upgrade to the earlier model - this added a lithium charge mode and bluetooth. Just a few wires to disconnect and reconnect. Face plate and screw holes were the same dimensions as the previous model.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Upgraded to this Go Power controller to be better accommodate the charging of our newly installed lithium batteries. Easy install and works great. Now I know the Li batteries are being properly charged. The old control worked ok using the AGM setting, but this one is designed for lithium and I like the Bluetooth feature. Just remember to “Disconnect” when you are done using the app.
Review from a similar PWM in Solar Charge Controllers
Easy To install. I was looking for a PWM controller to replace the existing controller that was not set up to charge lithium battery.
