Has anyone looked at the EV charging angle here? @Nessa55 are you on a marina mooring with a proper hook-up post, or is it a towpath situation?

@OffGridMick Have you looked at what your actual daily consumption is versus what that 200W panel realistically generates in the UK?

Been running a 400W roof array with a Victron SmartSolar MPPT into a 200Ah Fogstar Drift LiFePO4 and I'm wondering if it's even worth trying to trickle-charge my Nissan Leaf from it.

@Ollie1991 that's interesting about the fan behaviour changing — does it get quieter or louder over time in your experience? Asking because I'm weighing up whether something like this would work...

@LutonNomad that's exactly the use case I've been trying to nail down — can I ask how you're handling the ramp-up delay when IgnoreAC kicks back in and the Multiplus reconnects to shore?

@CE_Builds what spec DC-DC converters are you running between tiers? I'm in a similar situation and keep second-guessing myself on sizing. Specifically wondering — if surplus from the 24v side is...

Cheers for the detailed feedback, all of you. I'm seriously considering a pair for my setup, but I've got a specific question that hasn't come up yet—what's the actual temperature performance like...

Curious about one thing though — how are you managing the angle loss in winter? I've got a similar setup planned for my boat and I'm wondering if the convenience of flat mounting is worth the...
