Solar Charge Controller | Victron | SmartSolar MPPT 150/45
Product Details
Bridging the gap between entry and high-power SmartSolar controllers, the Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/45 offers 45A output with a 150V PV input ceiling across 12V, 24V, and 48V systems. It delivers up to 650W at 12V, 1,300W at 24V, or 2,600W at 48V from solar — a meaningful step up for installations outgrowing a 35A unit. Like all SmartSolar controllers, built-in Bluetooth and eight selectable charge algorithms make configuration and monitoring simple from any smartphone.
Key Features
- Ultra-fast MPPT tracking
- Built-in Bluetooth Smart
- VE.Direct port
- Eight pre-programmed charge algorithms
- Rotary switch for algorithm selection
- VE.Smart Networking

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
A well-rounded choice for large touring caravans and motorhomes with 800W to 1,200W of rooftop solar and a 200Ah+ lithium battery bank. The 150V input provides flexibility to wire panels in longer series strings.
For four-wheel-drive expedition builds with multiple roof-mounted or bonnet panels, the 45A output fills a large auxiliary battery more quickly and handles higher total panel wattage than lower-rated units.
Sailboats and larger powerboats with 24V or 48V house banks benefit from the 150/45's balance of output power and compact enclosure. Bluetooth monitoring lets the crew check charge status without visiting the electrical compartment.
Ideal for small off-grid homes or cabins running a 1kW to 2kW PV array and a 24V or 48V battery. Compatible with all Victron GX devices for full system monitoring and remote access.
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.
