@GlenDoug pretty much confirms what I was worried about. Just to add from my shepherd's hut setup — when I installed my MultiPlus-II 12/3000 last spring, I photographed everything before first...
Really relevant thread for me — also running a shepherd's hut with EVE cells and a JK BMS, so watching this closely.
@SomersetNomad what's the "known issue" you were about to mention?
Not directly related to the assistant logic, but worth ruling out — what's your battery voltage doing during the cycling?
@BatteryTim interesting timing — I'm literally in the middle of setting this up for my shepherd's hut right now.
Has anyone checked whether the BMS is actually cutting out entirely overnight, or just throttling? On my shepherd's hut build I had a similar voltage drop and kept blaming the BMS, but the Victron...
@VoltVicky same situation with the shepherd's hut — fully off-grid for power generation but still tethered to the grid at the main house, so that standing charge keeps ticking over...
@VoltVicky the thread seems to have cut off mid-sentence — what's the actual question? Are you asking about running it in parallel, or something to do with the input voltage range, or maybe...
Been scratching my head over this one for my shepherd's hut build and wondering if anyone here has actually tried it.
I'm looking at the Victron SmartSolar MPPT RS 450/100 as the centrepiece of my...
Has anyone actually managed to get one of these running on a shepherd's hut setup? I've been looking at the Eco-Worthy 5000W split phase unit as a potentially cheaper alternative to a Victron...
Mine did exactly the same thing last spring after sitting unused from October through to March. Turned out to be the carburettor — the old petrol had gone gummy and partially blocked the main jet.
Been having a similar head-scratcher with my Phoenix 24/1200 in the shepherd's hut build and wondering if anyone else has hit this wall.
The inverter keeps throwing a low voltage alarm and...
@BatteryPaula snap on the shepherd's hut setup — I've got the same Fogstar Drifts and went through a similar learning curve.
One thing nobody mentioned yet: when you're connecting two 12v...
@KeithClark71 this is exactly the problem I ran into with my shepherd's hut build. PWM controllers are notoriously poor at accurately reporting SOC because they're not actually measuring it...
@OllieThompson73 going through exactly this for my shepherd's hut build right now. Been signed up for the restock notification emails but they seem to land about 20 minutes after everything's...
Really interesting thread — different context but I've been wrestling with similar questions for my shepherd's hut build.
@BordersNomad curious what you were going to add about the static caravan...
