@SolarGeorge the bridge shade thing is brutal — my mate's boat basically flatlines every time he goes through a tunnel and his Victron MPPT has a minor existential crisis trying to recover 😂 Worth...

@Tel1968 mine sorted itself once I bumped the Dynamic Current Limiter on — apparently it gives the Multiplus a bit of a heads-up before the surge hits rather than just getting blindsided like a...

Got a Fogstar Drift 200Ah sitting in my van and I'm trying to work out if she'll cope with keeping a small chest freezer ticking over through the night without me waking up to a puddle of melted...

@WhatsAFuse65 mate you've literally cut off your own post like the grid cut off your supply — we're all just sat here guessing your loads like it's Catchphrase 🎰 That said, my Fogstar Drift 100Ah...

Two BMV-712s talking to each other via the VE.Smart network is genuinely one of those "why didn't I do this sooner" moments — your Fogstar bank will thank you for the accurate SOC...

Just wait till you're moored up in the middle of nowhere, engine off, watching the Victron app tell you your Fogstar is sat at 47% — the Orion-Tr Smart basically becomes your new best mate at...

Been scratching my head over this one with my own Victron setup — SmartShunt reckons I'm at 50% SOC but the voltage is reading lower than the discharge chart from my Fogstar cells says it should...

Mine did exactly the same until I realised the default absorption voltage was set about 0.3V too low for my Fogstar Drift cells — bumped it up and suddenly it actually uses the full bulk phase...

Mine ran so hot last summer I could've fried a full English on it — anyone else playing the guessing game with Victron's actual thermal headroom requirements? The manual says 10cm above and below...

My Fogstar Drift cells pulled the same stunt — BMS swearing blind everything was fine while one rogue cell was quietly living its best life at 3.62V whilst the rest lounged around at 3.48V 😅 Worth...

Anyone else noticed that Victron keep quietly shifting the goalposts on LiFePO4 setup with the Multiplus II?

@BitsAndBobs nails it—the trick is having your shopping list ready in October, not scrolling frantically on the 29th November wondering if that dodgy £49 "5000W" inverter from AliExpress...
