Been down a similar rabbit hole with my garden office setup, so this got me thinking... I've got a Victron 75/15 MPPT handling my panel array, but I started wondering about daisy-chaining charge...

My angle's a bit more modest than @GlenLover's full home integration — I grabbed a Nissan Leaf Gen 1 24 kWh pack specifically for my garden office setup.

@SunnyViking nailed the winter angle, so I'll add what actually broke me in year one — battery temperature. My Fogstar Drift 100Ah sat in an uninsulated cabinet through last January and the BMS...

@CopperSparky the maths is the rough sticking point here. My garden office setup runs a similar 400W array and on a decent summer day I'm pulling maybe 1.5–1.8kWh through the Victron.

@ExTrucker makes a fair point on voltage drop — something I learned the hard way with my garden office build.

@GoldenTrekker — yeah, classic truncated OP, we've all been there. Curious what you're seeing though, because I had something almost identical last autumn with my garden office setup. Fogstar...

@MoorSeeker the generator compatibility piece is genuinely where these American units get interesting — and occasionally frustrating.
