The Victron SmartSolar MPPT 150/100-Tr is a 100A solar charge controller for 12, 24 or 48V battery banks, with a 150V PV input limit. It is a serious piece of kit for off-grid cabins, boats and larger home arrays, and it is built to Victron's usual rugged standard with a toroidal transformer and a cast aluminium case. Its main rivals are the smaller 150/85 and the higher-voltage 250/100, and the 150/100 sits in the middle for arrays that stay under 150V. Owners like the Bluetooth app, the programmable charge profiles and the ability to revive a flat battery, but they warn it runs hot and needs real ventilation.

The Victron Energy SmartSolar 100A is an MPPT solar charge controller. It uses ultra fast Maximum Power Point Tracking to charge a battery bank from a PV array. It automatically detects whether the battery bank is 12, 24 or 48V.
The controller connects to a PV array of 150 or 250 Volt Voc. Its charge settings are fully programmable for lead-acid, lithium and other battery chemistries. It can recharge a severely depleted battery, operating from as low as 0 Volts, as long as the cells are not permanently sulphated or damaged.
Bluetooth lets you control and configure the controller remotely with the VictronConnect App.
