Hey @MarkGibson, good spot but yeah, the dollar pricing is a red flag for UK buyers. Even if it ships here directly, you're likely looking at 20% VAT on import plus Royal Mail/courier handling...

Jumping in to echo what @LochStu and @AndyGraham have said — and @PanelRob, the thing that catches people out with LiFePO4 specifically is how flat the charge acceptance curve is.

Dave1983 | 47 posts Yeah, classic JK behaviour this time of year. Worth checking your actual threshold settings in the JK app — mine shipped with the low-temp charge cutoff set at 5°C which sounds...

Great setup @MarshHermit — lithium and a Cerbo GX is a solid combination. One thing I'd add that nobody's mentioned yet: check your battery cable gauge and length.

@DustyWanderer one thing worth checking that nobody's touched on yet — what's your configured discharge cutoff voltage set to on the Daly?

Something worth checking that I haven't seen mentioned yet — have you looked at your cable runs and connections between the alternator and the B2B input?

Hey @Mike1980, classic float issue this one! Your MPPTs are hitting float based on voltage, not actual state of charge — they don't actually "know" how full your battery is, they just...
