I understand someone could answer this question later—but having waited ½ hours without an answer I am going to make some product orders now. I am still interested in the answer but real need has passed.

Welcome to Fluther, @muhammajelly. I claim an interest in “electronics” but I never heard of MPPT controllers until now. Googling, I see they’re mainly used for solar power conversion by adjusting the amps-volts tradeoff to gain a few percent in efficiency, according to this curve.

The output of a 24v transformer wired to mains will be alternating current, so somewhere there’s a rectifier & power supply if you’re using a dc-to-dc converter. 60 amps strikes me as a lot of current. Are you starting a car, lol?

…converted excess voltage into massive amounts of heat.

Here is info on MPPT:

You have 24VAC right now? Gonna need to change it to 24VDC first…

60A rectifier/caps are a non-issue.

Hooking 60A MPPT charge controller to 24V transformer and 8D starting battery worked. 8D is hooked to load. I was afraid it wouldn’t function but in fact it did *so far.

12 VDC at 60 amps requires 720 watts be drawn through the primary (in a loss free system and not accounting for the voltage differences when AC is converted to DC). Therefore the primary of the transformer requires 120 VAC at 6 amps. Can your transformer handle more than 30 amps through its 24 VAC secondary?

@Bill1939 It has so far.
