I had originally intended to buy the 30A version but it was out of stock. It's now back in stock and Renogy will refund the 50A for me (which was considerably more expensive). But I'm not sure what to do.
I'm converting a Mk8 minibus, but I'm not sure of the alternator capacity.
Any thoughts on the pros and cons of 30A versus 50A charging?
