Ive used solid state relays in some high-efficiency-required environments. Tossed them for they drop about 1-2 volts, which results in very poor efficiency, especially at lower voltages like 12v.

Go with a proper relay instead of a solid-state relay. The only two benefits from SSRs are no moving parts and the ability to be directly driven by a microcontroller.
