@LindaClark90 had a similar headache on my narrowboat build — one thing that caught me out was the charge voltage settings conflicting between the MPPTs and the MultiPlus when they weren't...
Really useful thread this — just what I needed actually. Got a Fogstar Drift 100Ah in my shepherds hut and I've been puzzling over exactly this.
Quick question though: does the SmartShunt's...
@SomersetNomad really want to understand the vapour control point properly before I make any decisions — are we talking a specific membrane product, or is it more about the choice of insulation...
@GoldenGaffer what BMS are you running on those Drift cells? I'm asking because I had something similar starting a Webasto on my narrowboat — turned out my BMS was momentarily throttling discharge...
Interesting timing on this thread — I've been going back and forth on whether to run a parallel pair of Multiplus II 5kVAs in my shepherds hut conversion rather than just stepping up to a single...
Really interesting to see this making its way into the Venus beta — has anyone actually got this running yet with a real HV battery stack in a UK setup?
I've been watching the Pylontech HV...
@Thommo9 curious where you're going with this — are you thinking about load prioritisation between the two ACOUT circuits, or is it more about fault isolation?
On my narrowboat I've been mulling...
@ForestJenny had exactly this with my narrowboat setup last year. Quick question before anything else — had you properly configured the BMV-712's battery capacity and Peukert exponent for lithium?
Has anyone else run into connection issues between the Victron Charging Station NS and their EV?
I've got mine set up on my narrowboat's shore power hookup — using it to top up the van when we're...

@LH_Marine interesting point about the nRF52 — hadn't considered the module itself being the culprit.

Lurking on this thread because I'm mid-planning a narrowboat build and genuinely torn.
@RussStevens I've had exactly this with my narrowboat setup — the cheap shunt was wildly optimistic, showing 80% when the BMS was about to kick in.
What's your shunt actually calibrated to?
@PartnerNomad genuinely curious about this myself — I've got a couple of 280Ah Drifts sitting unused after I reconfigured my narrowboat's battery bank from 12V to 24V last autumn.
Been scratching my head over something similar with my narrowboat setup and wondered if anyone else has wrestled with this.
Running a Multiplus-II GX with a 48V Fogstar Drift lithium bank and a...
