Built to Outlast the System Around It

MidNite designs and builds its inverters, charge controllers, and enclosures in Arlington, Washington. The gear tends to stay in service a long time, as Dexter has seen firsthand:

“We’ve had customers come to us to replace 20-year-old MidNite products, not because the product has stopped working, but because they’ve decided to upgrade the rest of their system and the old MidNite product is no longer compatible with modern lithium batteries.”

Today’s Rosie and MidNite charge controllers work with lithium as well as lead-acid batteries, so a new MidNite system is ready for a modern battery bank.

The Rosie 7048 delivers 7kW at 120/240V split phase with a 120A charger. The Little Rosie models deliver 120V: the 4548RE at 4.5kVA for stationary systems and the 3648M at 3.6kW for mobile installs.

Yes. It’s a high frequency design, which is why the Little Rosie RE in our surge test weighed just 15 lb. It still held its voltage better than a 71 lb low frequency Victron MultiPlus-II under blower motor starts.

The Classic handles 150V to 250V input from solar, wind, or hydro on 12V to 72V banks. The Barcelona and Hawke’s Bay take up to 600VDC per tracker on 48V banks, and The KID fits smaller arrays up to 150VDC. Contact our support team and we’ll help you size it.

Yes. The Rosie is compatible with lithium, lead-acid, AGM, flooded, and other chemistries, and the Classic, KID, Barcelona, and Hawke’s Bay charge lithium too. Check each product page for the battery voltage range and charge current.

An enclosure that mounts with the inverter and holds the AC breakers plus the battery overcurrent protection and disconnect. The Rosie and Little Rosie each have a matching E-Panel, and the Rosie 7048RE comes prewired with one.
