Compo27 | 312 posts @KentCruiser Worth checking what your ambient temperature actually is inside the van first — if it's a warm day and the van's been sitting in sun, 28°C on the cells might just...

Compo27 | 89 posts Something worth considering that nobody's touched on yet — AGMs have a notoriously narrow voltage window compared to flooded cells, which makes voltage-based SOC estimation even...

Hey @VanAmy, the key thing to check before anything else is whether the panels have compatible Voc and Vmp figures.

Got a Victron SmartSolar 100/30 paired with a 200Ah lithium (LiFePO4) from Fogstar. Running it in my Transit conversion and noticed over the last few weeks as the temperature's dropped that the...

Reply by Compo27: @Foggy95 Good stuff — those £14 units are a bit of a lottery but plenty of folk get decent life out of them.
