I have 2, 12 volt, 160 watt, Poly Solar panels with MC4 connectors. I am trying to connect them to my 30 amp MPPT controller in my overland trailer (turtleback). Currently the trailer has a SAE connection mounted to the sidewall of the trailer. Currently this SAE connection is attach to a 20 amp pwm controller that I am replacing with the 30 amp MPPT. I bought a MC4 to SAE adapter off amazon, thinking this would be a simple fix. However when looking more closely I noticed the connection states that it is a "polarity reverse connector" That is when I started scratching my head. Please help. Can anyone out there tell me what this reverse polarity thing is (I understand polarity I don't understand why on earth I would do that), and can you tell me if I am missing something. FYI the MPPT controller will be hooked up to 2 12volt 125ah Vmax agm batteries.
