Can I use different brands of charge controllers and use the same monitoring system?

eg. I have the Outback MPPT charge controller with Mate monitoring. Can I use the new Tristar MPPT with the same monitoring?

Comments

You can definitely charge the same battery bank using different brand charge controllers.

Unfortunately, the Tristar communication protocol is different than that of Outback Mate's.

You can use Tristar Remote Meter TS-RM or Digital Meter TS-M.
