Victron SmartSolar MPPT 75|10

Smart MPPT for small solar gate sites

When a gate or camera stack sits off-grid, the charge controller is the difference between a reliable entry and a dead battery at 4 p.m. The Victron Energy SmartSolar MPPT 75|10 is the compact Bluetooth controller we use on smaller 12/24V solar kits: up to 75V panel input, 10A charge current, UL1741 certified, and configurable from your phone.

Why this model

• MPPT tracking — gets more out of the panels than a cheap PWM brick, especially in partial shade
• Bluetooth + VictronConnect — live volts/amps, history, presets, firmware, and alarms without a separate dongle
• 12/24V auto — fits typical gate battery banks
• Load output — can drop loads if battery voltage gets too low (configure carefully for gate motors)
• Sync-ready — multiple SmartSolar units can stage together on bigger multi-controller jobs

How it shows up on our jobs

Paired with panels and a sealed battery inside a ventilated outdoor enclosure for solar gate access and camera sites — the same kind of stack as our Solar Gate Access and Video Monitoring work. Size the array and battery to the load; this 10A unit is for modest systems, not a multi-horsepower opener running all day.

Good fit / size up

• Good: small solar gate kits, camera/monitor solar, 12 or 24V banks that need Bluetooth monitoring
• Size up: higher panel wattage or higher charge current — Victron has larger SmartSolar amps in the same family
• Not a full solar design: still need correct wire gauge, fusing, battery chemistry settings, and a cabinet that won’t cook the electronics
