MPPT is ok but max input is 25v so limits you to 12v panels.
I don't see this as much of a problem. Higher solar voltage are typically only used when the wire runs from the panels to the controller are long.

Does not say if it boosts the alternator voltage. May have missed that.
It does not say it specifically, but it certainly IMPLIES it !
First, unless you have a pretty old RV/tow vehicle,
every vehicle built in the US has had "smart charging" for the past 10-15 years, so when installing this unit it is important to follow those instructions !With the smart alternator setting, the charger "turns on" when the voltage is above 12.0V
(cut off at 11.5V). You aren't going to be doing any Bulk or Constant charging at that low of and input voltage !
