Anyone had issues with a Victron SmartSolar 100/30 dropping to float too early on cloudy days?
Hey @AndyReid, worth checking your absorption time settings as well as what @TerryScott72 and @Robbo are getting at.

Anyone actually saved money going second-hand on lithium? What's the risk?
Good thread, this one. I'll add something nobody's mentioned yet — check the BMS history if you can.

Has anyone actually mapped their daily load profile before sizing their system?
I've been going through my setup recently and started wondering if I've been doing this all wrong from the start.

Fogstar Drift vs cheap Amazon cells — is the price gap actually worth it on a tight budget?
Good thread this. One thing worth factoring in that I don't see mentioned yet — capacity testing. With the dodgy Amazon cells you genuinely don't know what you're getting until you actually cycle...

Anyone else had grief with a Victron MultiPlus 24/2000 tripping on overload when running a washing machine?
Picked up a second-hand MultiPlus 24/2000 a few months back and it's been brilliant for most things — runs the TV, router, a few lights, no bother at all.
