The SmartSolar MPPT 75/15 is a compact single-tracker solar charge controller from Victron Energy for 12V and 24V battery banks. It is rated for a 15 A charge current and accepts panels up to 75 V open circuit, with nominal panel power of 220 W at 12V and 440 W at 24V. A load output handles 15 A continuous at 12V. Bluetooth is built in, a VE.Direct port is fitted, and the electronics are rated IP43. The unit weighs 0.5 kg.
Our take
The 75 V open-circuit ceiling is the number to check against your panel string, since it caps how many panels you can put in series. Within it, the 15 A charge rating covers 220 W nominal at 12V, and the load output adds a protected 15 A.
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.
