Solar Charge Controller | Victron | SmartSolar MPPT 150/70 MC4 VE.CAN
Product Details
The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/70 MC4 VE.CAN combines MC4 panel connectors with the advanced VE.Can bus — enabling synchronised operation of up to 25 controllers on a single CAN network. The 70A output and 150V PV input support 12V, 24V, and 48V systems handling up to 4,000W at 48V. Unlike standard Bluetooth-only units, VE.Can integration allows deep system coordination through a Cerbo GX, with full data logging and remote access via the Victron VRM portal. MC4 inputs make this the natural choice where panels terminate in MC4 connectors.
Key Features

- Built-in Bluetooth Smart
- VE.Can and VE.Direct ports
- Programmable relay
- Remote on/off
- Synchronized parallel operation (up to 25 units via VE.Can)

Use Cases
High-specification expedition motorhomes and large custom caravans running multiple Victron controllers on a CAN bus gain precise parallel synchronisation and centralised monitoring — all through the free VRM portal.
Large overlanding 4WD platforms running a Cerbo GX as the system hub will find VE.Can connectivity essential for logging, automation, and remote visibility. MC4 panel inputs simplify rooftop connections.
Commercial marine operators and bluewater liveaboards running Victron integrated systems benefit from CAN-bus data integration — every controller's output, battery state, and alarms visible on one dashboard.
The anchor component in large off-grid systems where multiple SmartSolar units must synchronise charging current to a large battery bank. Up to 25 units in parallel via VE.Can is the maximum available in the SmartSolar lineup.
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.
