Recommended for charging batteries with solar energy. When using solar on your boat, yacht, van or RV you will need a charging device which converts the energy which your panels are producing to a stable charging voltage and current that your batteries can easily accept. A solar controller will increase the efficiency of your panels, increasing the amount of energy available for your use. The Smart Solar series from Victron also includes Bluetooth smart monitoring, or with the GX series of monitoring equipment, a user can set charging parameter and battery type (choose the lithium setting for DL batteries), and monitor and record solar yields. We’re a fan of this charge controller because of it’s professional grade performance and the easy to use Bluetooth phone app. Datasheet available here (pdf). A solar charge controller is recommended for any solar energy system with 100 watts of solar panels or more.

Specifications
Victron SmartSolar MPPT 75/15 Solar Charge Controller Specs
What is a solar charge controller?
A charging device which converts the energy which your panels are producing to a stable charging voltage and current that your batteries can accept easily.
Nominal Power & Peak Efficiency
220 watts, 98% efficiency
Rated charge current
15 amps
Optimized for Solar Energy
Compatible with any solar panel. For higher efficiency we recommend using with a battery and a solar charge controller.
How does this fit into my off-grid, home power system?
This controls the charging of your batteries with solar panels and greatly increases performance. To use the energy you will an inverter. Inverters make it easy to use energy available from your batteries in the form of an AC wall plug.
MPPT: Ultra Fast Maximum Power Point Tracking
By constantly monitoring the voltage and current output of your solar (PV) panels, MPPT technology ensures that every drop of available power is rinsed out of your panels, and harvested for storage. The advantage of this is most noticeable when the sky is partially clouded, and light intensity is constantly changing.
Intelligent Load Output
The intelligent Load output function prevents damage caused by running batteries ‘flat’. You can configure the voltage at which SmartSolar disconnects a load – thereby preventing excessive drain on your batteries. And here’s the clever bit: SmartSolar will attempt a 100% recharge every day. If it can’t – during periods of poor weather – it raises the disconnect voltage, daily, until it achieves success. We call this feature BatteryLife because it maintains the health, and extends the life of your battery.
Remote Monitoring and Control
Remotely control and monitor the extensive features of your SmartSolar MPPT charger with built-in Bluetooth by pairing it with your smartphone or other device via VictronConnect. If your installation is connected to the internet Victron Remote Management Portal (VRM) provides access to the full power of your MPPT, anytime, anywhere; both services are free to use. For remote installations – even when there is no internet connection or phone signal nearby – you may be able to monitor your MPPT by Bluetooth-pairing with a LoRaWAN (long-range wide area network) device, available optionally.
