Solar setup

So I noticed that the info on the 2023 now says 400 watts of solar with solar charge controller.  No mention of brand of charge controller.  I took a screenshot of this awhile back.  Does anyone know what is being offered know?

That's great, and I'd love to know specs, too.

We have 400+ watts, fixed, on our 2008. (Bifacial panels, installed by us )

Newpowa is now providing a 210W 12V High Efficiency Monocrystalline 12V Panel. The newer lithium packages will contain two of these panels (or something equivalent). They have finally dropped the old PWM Zamp equipment for Victron MPPT Controllers.

When I first took that screenshot of the specs I assumed it was the 210 watt newpowa.  When I saw it was now 400 watts an no mention of victron I wondered what had changed.
