I have the 100w harbor freight solar kit with the 500w charge controller, I want to upgrade to a lithium battery but I can't find if the controller is MPPT or PWM. I know I will ruin a lithium battery with a PWM charge controller. The unit has user controls to change the charge profile. The instructions say thing like "... When using a lead-acid battery" or "... To charge a lead-acid or gel battery..." But nowhere does it say anything like "Do Not use with lithium batteries". I feel like somewhere I had read that the charge controller was MPPT but went to double check and can't find it. Any info on the kit would be helpful. The model number is 63585 at harbor freight.
