Solar Charge Controller | Victron | SmartSolar MPPT 100/50
Product Details
The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 100/50 is the highest-output controller in the 100V input series, delivering up to 50A of charge current — enough to charge a 200Ah lithium battery from a 700W (12V) or 1,400W (24V) solar array in favourable conditions. The eight pre-set charge algorithms cover all common battery chemistries out of the box, and full Bluetooth connectivity via VictronConnect allows real-time monitoring, custom algorithm tuning, and historical data logging.
Key Features
- Ultra-fast MPPT tracking
- Built-in Bluetooth Smart
- VE.Direct port

Compatible Battery Types
Works with AGM, Gel, Flooded (wet cell), LiFePO4, and lithium-ion batteries. Battery type and absorption/float voltages are configurable via the VictronConnect app.
Use Cases
For large fifth-wheelers and full-time caravans with multiple rooftop panels, the 100/50 delivers serious charging power. A 600W panel array and a 300Ah lithium bank become a capable off-grid system.
Serious off-road tourers running a large lithium auxiliary battery will appreciate the 50A output — three times the current of an entry-level unit. Recover battery state quickly between driving stints.
On bluewater cruisers and offshore fishing vessels, a large battery bank demands serious solar replenishment. The 100/50 handles a full day's energy consumption from a modest 1kW panel array.
A capable controller for remote homes or farm buildings running a 12V or 24V system with multiple panels. Combine with a Cerbo GX and battery monitor for full remote visibility via Victron's VRM portal.
App Control & Connectivity
All SmartSolar MPPT controllers feature built-in Bluetooth for wireless monitoring and configuration via the free VictronConnect app (iOS and Android). Adjust charge settings, view real-time solar data, and receive alerts — all without needing a laptop or additional hardware. For advanced monitoring, connect to a Victron GX device (Cerbo GX, Venus GX) for full system integration and remote access via VRM.
