The SmartSolar MPPT 150/60-Tr is a Victron solar charge controller with a 60 A rated charge current. It accepts up to 150 V of panel open circuit voltage and auto-selects 12 V, 24 V or 48 V battery systems. Bluetooth and a VE.Direct port handle communication, and the nominal panel power is 860 W on a 12 V battery. Maximum efficiency is 98 %. The connection area is rated IP22, with the electronics at IP43.
Our take
Nominal panel power of 860 W at 12 V is the array size this controller is matched to on a 12 V boat, and the 150 V open circuit limit caps how the panels can be strung. The IP22 connection area calls for a dry spot.
From our buying guide
NMMA says charging sources must meet the charging profile the battery maker recommends. A charger's presets are its own maker's, so set it from the battery maker's figures.
Check before you buy:
- It can follow your battery's profile, since not every charger can follow a lithium maker's.
- On a boat subpart I covers, each ungrounded output conductor from a battery needs a manually reset, trip-free circuit breaker or fuse within 72 inches of the battery.
