Not Recommended
| Make and Model | Remote Control? | Logging | Comments | used By |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Genasun GV-10 | None | None | No interface except 1 LED, Poor functionality for the price, no user-replaceable fuse and died during hot weather | User:Chewie |
| SilentWind Wind & Solar Hybrid Charge Controller | Bluetooth | None | Physical buttons temperamental, no logging capability, app looks like it was written by a 10 year old, no external Bluetooth aerial, so completely useless when inside a metal container, and range is poor even when outside. Review with associated wind turbine here | User:Chewie |
| Western Co WRM15 dualB | Bluetooth & MODBUS | Not Tested | In theory, a good range of functions, app non-functional, and support have not been helpful - "Try another device", "Try the new version". Neither of which has been any use. Have not tried MODBUS connection | User:Chewie |
| EPSolar Tracer 1215RN (discontinued) | None | None | Interface poor - 1 button does everything, can't power itself from solar input, so if your batteries are in poor condition, it won't power anything | User:Chewie |
