Support charging of ultra-capacitor banks > 48V

Using the 48V battery setting, I cannot increase the absorption voltage of a SmartSolar 150/35 beyond 69V, and I'm assuming this is standard throughout the range of MPPTs (?). Are there any ways to support charging batteries (or other energy-storage-solutions) beyond the 48V limit? My guess is that the MPPT hardware could already support this.

Hi @ryanb, no sorry - the hardware can't do higher. If it could, we would have allowed higher voltage settings. Matthijs
