Charge Controller…who needs a stinking charge controller?
If you plan on converting your green energy into electrical power, then you do. A charge controller is a necessary interface between your harvester (solar panel, wind turbine, etc.) and your battery or inverter. It makes the two play nice, as Chris Troutner of Free Charge Controller puts it.

Its flux capacitor-esk look makes it that much cooler.
