Here's another relatively inexpensive high current, high PV input charge controller. It will also handle battery voltages up to 96v.
There's also a 230v PV model for $100 less if you don't need the 480v PV

I purchased this a couple months ago and it has been working without issue. I wanted to make sure it didn't have any issues before sharing with the forum here.
It appears to the same design/mfg as the SUYEEGO that I and several others on the forum purchased earlier this year.
(Search the forum for Suyeego and you'll get a bunch of results.)
It uses the same screen, options, and wifi app.
The only difference is my Suyeego will go up to 192v battery and this one says it only does 96v. BUT the app on this one does have the ability to change the voltage to 192, and model designation in the app is the same as my Suyeego - "M-120192". So maybe it will handle 192v as well, but I haven't tried yet. Either way, these high battery voltages are not a common use case for most people, so it likely won't matter to most.
I have seen max charging current (120a) earlier this summer.
I had initially bought this because I thought my Suyeego had a problem since it would only charge at 700w, even though I had 5000w of panels hooked up. This one showed the same issue. Turns out I had a bad crimp on a battery connection that was limiting charge current. Once I fixed that, this one and the Suyeego work fine.
I had purchased my Suyeego directly from Alibaba for about $225 before tariffs, but I know a lot of people are leery about Ali, so here's an alternative to buy the same thing on Amazon for only a little more - or maybe the same or less once the new tariffs are factored in.
