Detailed description

Designed to optimize charging for eLite electric outboard motors, the ePropulsion MPPT 100 W solar charge controller (reference EL-C003-00) is compatible with eLite and Spirit foldable solar panels. It ensures efficient energy conversion, helping to extend range at sea.

Advanced MPPT technology and conversion efficiency

This controller integrates MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) technology, guaranteeing a maximum power point tracking efficiency of 99.9 % or higher. It delivers up to 90 % charge conversion efficiency, optimizing energy input from solar panels even under variable light conditions. The MPPT tracking range spans from 12 V to 18 V, with an open-circuit voltage below 23 V.

Technical specifications and versatile connectivity

The ePropulsion EL-C003-00 controller provides a maximum output power of 100 W and a maximum output voltage of 30 V. It handles a maximum input current of 4 A and a maximum constant charge current (CC) of 4 A, with a maximum output of 29.4 V - 4.0 A during CC charging. The nominal battery system voltage is 25.2 V, with a maximum output voltage of 30 V and a maximum output of 29.4 V - 4.0 A during CC charging, compatible with the 25.2 V nominal battery system voltage. Equipped with dual charging capabilities, the unit accepts input via MC4 solar connectors or a 12 V DC source via a standard cigarette lighter socket using the included adapter. Its compact dimensions of 100.00 mm (length) x 82.00 mm (width) x 23.50 mm (height) and net weight of 0.40 kg facilitate installation.

Expert opinion

« Optimized autonomy for ePropulsion eLite: the contribution of the MPPT regulator »

The ePropulsion EL-C003-00 100 W solar MPPT charge controller is a critical component for users of the eLite electric outboard motor seeking to maximize their range. It is designed for eLite electric outboard motor users, where integrating renewable energy sources is essential for extended trips without relying on shore power.

The main advantage of this controller lies in its seamless integration with the ePropulsion ecosystem. Specifically designed for the eLite, it ensures optimal compatibility and charging algorithms tailored to the motor’s batteries. Its MPPT technology is decisive: it allows users to get the most out of compact solar panels, often limited in surface area on small boats, by optimizing energy production even under fluctuating sunlight. This ability to extract maximum power is crucial for low-power solar systems.

In terms of installation, its compact design greatly simplifies placement in tight spaces. Flexibility is also a major asset thanks to its dual charging capability: the standard MC4 input makes it easy to connect to various solar panels, while the 12 V adapter allows additional charging from a cigarette lighter socket. This versatility provides valuable energy recovery options, whether at sea via solar power or aboard a main vehicle/boat during transit. It is a relevant choice for those prioritizing lightweight design, compactness, and intelligent energy management for their eLite motor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Need help? Contact us

What is the maximum power this solar charge controller can handle?

This MPPT solar charge controller is designed to handle a maximum input power of 100 W.

What are the acceptable input voltage ranges for the regulator?

The MPPT solar charge controller has an MPPT tracking range from 12 V to 18 V. The open-circuit voltage (Voc) of the connected solar panels must be below 23 V.

Is the controller water-resistant or suitable for marine use?

Yes, this controller has a robust design specifically suited to the marine environment. While the exact certification is not fully specified in the provided description, ePropulsion products are generally designed to withstand maritime conditions.

What are the power input options for this controller?

The controller accepts a dual charging input: either via MC4 solar connectors for solar panels, or via a 12 V DC source using a cigarette lighter socket.

Can this regulator charge the eLite engine battery from a cigarette lighter socket?

Yes, the controller is equipped with a 12 V DC input via a cigarette lighter socket, allowing it to charge your eLite motor battery from a 12 V source on the boat or a vehicle.

Is the controller supplied with the necessary cables for connection?

The controller is usually supplied with the essential cables for connecting it to the eLite motor and for the 12V input via a cigarette lighter socket. For connecting to solar panels via MC4, the cables are often supplied with the panels themselves or can be purchased separately if needed.

Which ePropulsion outboard motors is this controller compatible with?

This solar charge regulator is specifically designed for the ePropulsion eLite electric outboard motor.

Which types of solar panels are compatible with this charge controller?

The controller is compatible with ePropulsion eLite and Spirit foldable solar panels, provided their total power does not exceed 100 W and their open-circuit voltage (Voc) is below 23 V.

Can I use this controller to charge other ePropulsion motor models such as the Spirit?

No, this controller is specifically designed to optimize the charging of eLite electric outboard motors. Its charging profile and output voltage are matched to the eLite motor battery.

Can this regulator be used to charge other types of marine batteries?

No, this regulator is specifically designed with an optimized charging profile for the lithium-ion battery integrated in the ePropulsion eLite outboard motor. Using it with other battery types may result in inefficient charging or damage to the battery.

How to connect the controller to my solar panel?

The controller is equipped with MC4 solar connectors, allowing easy and secure connection to most compatible solar panels, including ePropulsion eLite and Spirit foldable panels.

How to connect the eLite outboard motor to the controller?

The controller connects directly to the eLite outboard motor’s charging port using the supplied output cable. Ensure the connection is secure before starting the charge.

Does this autopilot require complex installation?

No, the controller is designed for simple plug-and-play use. Simply connect the solar panel to the controller input (MC4 or 12V cigarette lighter) and the controller output to the charge port of your eLite motor.

Are there indicators on the controller to show the charge state?

Although the provided description does not detail the specific indicators, MPPT charge controllers typically include LEDs or a small display to show charge status, solar panel connection, and battery status. It is recommended to consult the user manual for precise information on the indicators for this model.

Is specific tooling required for installation?

The controller is designed for easy installation. MC4 connectors can usually be handled by hand, but an MC4 wrench (often included with solar panels or the controller, as shown in the image "MC4 wrench") can make tightening and loosening easier for a secure connection. No other complex tools are typically required.
