Solar Charge Controller | Victron | SmartSolar MPPT 250/60 MC4
Product Details
Sharing the electrical specification of the 250/60 TR, the Victron SmartSolar MPPT 250/60 MC4 swaps screw terminal PV inputs for MC4 connectors — the standard in panel manufacturing — making this the drop-in choice when panels ship with MC4 leads. It handles 60A output from 250V string inputs to 12V, 24V, or 48V batteries with 99% peak efficiency. The programmable relay, remote on/off, and Bluetooth connectivity through VictronConnect round out the specification for professional fixed installations.
Key Features
- Ultra-fast MPPT tracking
- Built-in Bluetooth Smart
- VE.Direct port
- Programmable relay
- Remote on/off
- Synchronized parallel operation (up to 10 units via Bluetooth)
- Eight pre-programmed charge algorithms + user defined

Use Cases
MC4 connectors from rooftop panels connect directly to this controller without additional junction hardware, keeping the installation tidy and watertight from panel to controller in a motorhome or large caravan.
Custom 4WD builds where the owner has already terminated panel leads in MC4 connectors will find this the most convenient 250V option. High-efficiency MPPT tracking ensures maximum energy capture from the array.
Yacht installers who prefer MC4 direct connection from deck panels to below-deck controllers will appreciate the clean installation the MC4 version enables — particularly in retrofit installations.
Off-grid homes and commercial buildings with standard residential panels (which ship with MC4 leads) can connect directly to the 250/60 MC4 without any additional wiring adapters or combiners.
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.
