## About <!--about-->
Includes any products that can be described/observed as a device that regulates the voltage and current coming from solar panels or other renewable energy sources to prevent damage to batteries and other energy storage systems. Charge controllers are typically used in off-grid or hybrid systems, where energy is generated from solar panels or wind turbines and stored in batteries for later use. The charge controller is responsible for managing the flow of energy between the renewable energy source, the battery bank, and the load to ensure that the battery is charged efficiently and effectively while also preventing overcharging and undercharging.

### Excludes

Excludes products such as converters, inverters and transformers.
