I have 16 Calb 200Ah Lifep04 batteries and 4 350W solar panels (to be increased). I am looking for a reliable MPPT controller with the following specs.
a) on grid charging (prefer 120V but will consider 240V)
b) solar charging with ample room for V input
c) 5Kw ac output (pure sine wave)
d) optional wind generator input as well
e) expandable to 2 or more MPPT controllers
Also, if expanded to 2 MPPT controllers, do the 48v batteries have to be identical? I recently found a great deal on 16 320 Ah Lifepo4 batteries and was hoping that the 2nd MPPT would adjust to the the different current draw. I realize the BMS for each of the 2 batteries would be different however I was not sure that the MPPT would compensate? My experience tells me NO but this (battery backup) is a new field for me so there is a learning curve and need a little help from someone more experienced in this field.
Any help will be appreciated. Likely would purchase from Ali express as I'm from Canada and the US shipping and dollar difference is a killer.
