Bogart Engineering SC-2030 Solar Charger

🇺🇸 Made in USA 3-Year Warranty Engineer Support
$150.00

 Our competition calls their solar charger “smart” because it can connect to a smartphone.  We call our controller “smart” because it of its knowledge of electro-chemistry and battery charging principles and its ability to connect to a smartphone.

SC-2030 Solar & DC Charger: use with solar panels or any DC 16V/30A source to charge all types of lead-acid & lithium batteries.

SC-2030, when used with the TM-2030, is the only charger in the world to terminate charging based on Amp-hrs returned, an essential step to eliminate/minimize sulfation.  All other solar chargers terminate charging based on battery voltage which does not ensure a fully charged condition.

Option to turn off charging at a user specified temperature (10C to -5C) when used with lithium batteries.

The SC-2030 requires the TM-2030 Battery Monitor to operate — it is not a standalone charge controller. This is by design: the TM-2030 provides the intelligence that makes the SC-2030's charging profiles work correctly.

Compatible battery chemistries: Flooded lead-acid, AGM, Gel, Lithium LFP, Li-NMC, Nickel-Iron (NiFe), and custom-programmable profiles.
Why TriMetric

Built different. Built better.

35 years of engineering refinement, made in the USA, supported by the people who designed it.

🔴

Sunlight-readable red LED display

The TM-2030's crisp red LED display is visible from across the room in full sunlight — and won't ruin your night vision during nighttime checks. LCD displays wash out in the sun and destroy dark adaptation. Red LED doesn't.

📡

200+ ft WiFi range

The WF-2030 connects over WiFi — not Bluetooth. That means 200+ foot range, not 30. Monitor from inside your house while your batteries are in a separate building, at the bow while batteries are stern, or anywhere on your property.

Remote web portal — no subscription

Create a free account at wf2030.bogartengineering.com and your battery data follows you everywhere. Check voltage, state of charge, solar input, and temperature from anywhere in the world. Free account — no monthly fees, ever.

Amp-hour based charge termination

Think of your battery like a bank account. Every amp you draw is a withdrawal. To keep your battery healthy, you don't just repay what you borrowed — you repay the principal plus interest to offset charging inefficiency.

The SC-2030 and TM-2030 work together to ensure every charge cycle repays the full debt. You set the exact overcharge percentage for your battery's efficiency. Voltage-only chargers stop when the balance looks right. Ours stops when the math is right — eliminating sulfation in lead-acid batteries after every cycle.
