Smile The CTek is now for sale, $100.

In another example of my fixation on "optimizing" things which already work perfectly well , I'm putting the CTek up for Sale, and implementing my "other design" instead. That design, also providing excellent "Tow Vehicle charges the TM" capability, boosts the Voltage right under the hood, and goes into my existing MPPT.

The Ctek MPPT doesn't have my Rogue's programming options, and runs with their idea of "default" SLA battery charge management. My "other" design also creates only half as much current along the "+12V" TV and Bargman cable path, using energy more efficiently. And, I can make the switch between "Solar" versus "Tow Vehicle" automatic, if I want to do that. Therefore, See this Thread in "Parts and Accessories": http://www.trailmanorowners.com/foru...ad.php?t=16980
