Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is a technique used to get the maximum possible power from a solar panel. It is achieved by putting a variable load on the panel so that it achieves its optimum output voltage, and then converting that voltage to the optimum required by the battery. The effect of this can be to produce output up to 30% higher than a similar panel without this technology. This solar charge controller automatically adjusts for 12 or 24 volt systems and allows for an input voltage of up to 100 Volts

Now with 5 year manufacturers warranty. Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) is a technique used to get the maximum possible power from a solar panel. It is achieved by putting a variable load on the panel so that it achieves its optimum output voltage, and then converting that voltage to the optimum required by the battery. The effect of this can be to produce output up to 30% higher than a similar panel without this technology. This solar charge controller automatically adjusts for 12 or 24 volt systems. Especially in case of a clouded sky, when light intensity is changing continuously, an ultra fast MPPT controller will improve energy harvest by up to 30% compared to PWM charge controllers and by up to 10% compared to slower MPPT controllers.

Tech Tip

Connecting solar panels in series makes for a higher input voltage to the MPPT controller which gives it more to work with and greater efficiency. It also makes for less voltage drop in the wires. The first number of the model number is the maximum input voltage, the second number is the maximum amperage on the output side.

Q: Can I use 2 100 watt panels w/o this controller?

Asked by: daniel - 7/12/2015

A: The manufacturers datasheet says that if your battery bank is 12 volt you can use up to 200 Watts of panels and if your battery bank is 24 volts you can use up to 400 Watts of panels, so the answer is YES

Q: Can this controller also convert a lower input to a higher output? For instance, if the solar panel is putting out 11v, can the controller raise it to 13v ?

Asked by: Rob F - 11/2/2015

A: It cannot step up the voltage. However by placing a low load on the panel it can still get useful power in low light conditions and so can harvest more power than if you just connected the panel straight to the battery.

Q: If I have 3 150 watt panels can I use one controller?

Asked by: Bruce - 3/21/2018

A: No. Three x 150 Watt panels = 450 Watts total. The max for this charge controller with a 12 volt battery system is 200 Watts. You can refer to the table on the description page to pick a controller that is within your range. Even the 100/30 is a bit too small because it takes a max of 440 Watts
