I am currently working on a small hydro generator for my boat. I have a 760w 48v DC perm mag motor with a 10/1 reduction. I am able to generate good voltage (25-30) and amps (5-12) from my unit with the prop and 5-6 knots speed. Now I need a controller. Will something like the XANTREX C40 SOLAR CHARGE CONTROLLER 40A, 12/24/48V work?
