Overview

These Victron Blue Solar Charge Controllers support a PV input with a maximum open circuit voltage of 75V or 100V respectively and have a maximum output of 20A. They work with and will automatically recognise 12V and 24V battery systems, except the VBS-MPPT100/20-48 which can be used with 12, 24 or 48V systems. Highlights: Ultra fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) 6 mm² screw terminals Up to 98% efficient Load output, connect ≤20 A loads to be automatically disconnected/reconnected by the charge controller to stop the battery being over discharged ≤1A on 48V model BatteryLife: intelligent battery management algorithm, designed to increase the battery's life (see data sheet for details) Resin encapsulated electronics, added protection from the environment Automatic battery voltage recognition, no need to configure for 12V/24V systems 5 years warranty

What these specifications mean

Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20 is listed with 13 published specifications from Victron Energy, including system battery voltage of 12V, 24V, max VOC of 75V, MPPT trackers of 1 and connectivity of VE.Direct. Those figures are what decide whether this unit fits your system, so read them against the equipment it will connect to before comparing price.

For a charge controller, the figures that matter most are conversion efficiency, typically 96–99% for a good MPPT unit, whether it offers a load output, temperature compensation and remote monitoring, type: MPPT or PWM and rated charge current in amps, which must exceed the array's short-circuit current with margin. In any system with a battery and a separate array, the controller is what protects the most expensive component and determines how much of the array's output actually reaches storage.

Choosing a charge controller: the checks that matter

The checks below apply to any charge controller. Run them against the specification table above — most disappointing solar purchases are compatible-on-paper units that fail one of these in practice.

  • Confirm the controller supports your battery chemistry with the right charge profile. Lithium, AGM, gel and flooded batteries need different absorption and float voltages.
  • Prefer a unit with temperature compensation or a battery temperature sensor if the bank lives somewhere that gets hot or cold.
  • Choose MPPT over PWM for anything beyond a very small array. An MPPT controller harvests roughly 20–30% more energy because it converts excess panel voltage into charge current instead of throwing it away.
  • Size the current rating from array watts divided by battery voltage, then add at least 25% margin for cold, bright conditions where panels exceed their rated output.

Common mistakes

  • Sizing on rated array watts alone and ignoring the voltage ceiling, which is the most common way controllers are killed.
  • Using a PWM controller with a high-voltage grid-tie panel — the voltage mismatch wastes a large share of the panel's output.
  • Running the load output beyond its rating instead of wiring heavy loads directly to the battery through a fuse.

Price and availability

Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20 is listed at £ 32 (GBP). Solar pricing moves with supply, import duties and exchange rates, and distributors set their own margins, so treat this as a comparison reference and confirm the current figure before you order.

SolarBazaar compares equipment rather than selling it. Shortlist here on specification and price, then buy from an authorised distributor or installer in your country: warranty cover on solar hardware is normally honoured through the channel you bought from, so confirm who supports Victron Energy locally before ordering.

Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20 — frequently asked questions

How much does Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20 cost?

Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20 is listed at £ 32 (GBP). The figure is indicative — solar prices move with supply, duties and exchange rates, and each distributor sets its own margin — so confirm the current price with a supplier before ordering.

What are the specifications of Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20?

We hold 13 published specifications for this charge controller, including system battery voltage 12V, 24V, max VOC 75V, MPPT trackers 1, connectivity VE.Direct and connection Screw terminals. The full table is on this page, listed under model VBS-MPPT75/10.

Who makes Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20?

Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20 is a Victron Energy product, listed under charge controllers with model reference VBS-MPPT75/10. The Victron Energy brand page lists the rest of its range so you can compare across the catalogue.

Is Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20 right for my system?

That depends on what it has to connect to. For a charge controller, check type: MPPT or PWM, rated charge current in amps, which must exceed the array's short-circuit current with margin and maximum PV open-circuit voltage, the hard limit that must survive cold-morning Voc rise against the rest of your equipment before price enters the decision. Size the current rating from array watts divided by battery voltage, then add at least 25% margin for cold, bright conditions where panels exceed their rated output.

Where can I buy Victron Blue Solar Charge Controller MPPT 75/10, 75/15,100/15 & 100/20?

SolarBazaar lists and compares equipment rather than selling it. Use the specifications and price here to shortlist, then buy through an authorised distributor or installer — buying in-channel is what keeps the manufacturer's warranty valid.
