Description
The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150 | 60 MC4 is a high-efficiency MPPT charge controller designed for medium-to-large off-grid solar systems, featuring factory-installed MC4 connectors for safe, rapid, and reliable PV connection. With support for 150V PV open-circuit voltage (Voc) and 60A charging output, this controller is ideal for RVs, overland rigs, off-grid cabins, tiny homes, marine power systems, and mobile work trailers.
Victron’s Ultra-Fast Maximum Power Point Tracking optimizes solar harvest continuously—even during shading, variable weather, or low-sun conditions—resulting in significantly improved daily solar yield. Integrated Bluetooth Smart enables monitoring and programming in the VictronConnect app, while VE.Direct communication allows connection to a Cerbo GX or complete Victron system.

Solar Array Capability
With MC4-ready PV input and support for up to 150V Voc, the SmartSolar 150 | 60 MC4 can accept high-voltage residential panels or multiple RV-style panels in series.
Maximum Recommended Solar Array Size
| Battery Voltage | Max Charge Amps | Max Recommended Solar |
|---|---|---|
| 12V system | 60A | ≈ 900W |
| 24V system | 60A | ≈ 1,800W |
| 48V system | 60A | ≈ 3,500W |
The controller will safely limit output current to 60A even if the solar array is oversized.
