Elmar Best MPPT 3.5A, 165V, 99.6% (2021)

Description

The Elmar Solar 3.5A 2019 MPPT is designed with solar car racing teams competing in the World Solar Challenge in mind. Designed to be used specifically with Gallium Arsenide high performance arrays it is the most efficient MPPTs on the market while remaining extremely lightweight. Can also be used with silicon arrays as long as the maximum current stays below 3A.
