I quite frequently buy some itemes when they are lacking full details because they seem to be ok and only trial and error sometimes really gives you the idea as to what they really are and can do.
The units are quite ok, they seem reasonably efficient, reliable, easy to repair..
I used one with a 600W wind turbine, one of the variable resistors allows you to pull the input voltage down to whatever level you want, so i used one as a low wind input device, stepped up the 18-22V from the turbine to charge the 48V battery. Really windy I just bypassed the unit (or increased the voltage level) as the wind turbine was then able to output 48V and charge directly... 1.2kW out of a 600W unit, not ideal and a few strange noises in a storm. This was all experimenting and learning at the time.
