Yes - Renogy is reselling EP Tracer model 'BN' MPPT controllers with Renogy 'Commander' labels on them. (Models 'BN' are the newer, better ones for Negative Ground configurations, like the TM.) Renogy also sells an older (and worse) 'Tracer' model as product ID "RNG-CTRL-MPPT20". I can recommend the 'Commander' models and their OEM equivalents. I
do not recommend buying the older product line.
(I've used the 20A 'BN model in testing the 'Tow Vehicle as a Big Solar Panel' charge source swapping circuitry. It's tuning parameters , performance, monitor capabilities, and durability seemed pretty good. About the only thing it doesn't offer is a push-button to invoke "Boost Mode" by operator command, on either the Controller or the Remote.)
"Commander" series.
Linear Mode
