This weekend my Renogy Rover Li 30a MPPT decided it no longer accepted solar charge from my panels.
When I swapped it with the Rover Li on my other array of panels (both 3x100watt), it still wouldn't work.
I figured I'd blown something inside or it had otherwise malfunctioned...but today I plugged it back in to troubleshoot and...it just works.
Same-ish temperature and sunlight as before, so...what happened? I thought if I'd blown a fuse I'd have to tear the MPPT down and repair a fuse.
Similarly I thought if some charge protection had kicked in it would reset itself or stay broken.
I've checked online, no idea why it needed a couple days to rest and suddenly work again!
Any advice about how to test, or if I should or shouldn't worry about it's capacity, would be much appreciated.
