Victron MPPT keeps dropping to float too early — anyone else had this?
Right so we've got three posts that all cut off mid-sentence and nobody's noticed the irony of a thread about a controller dropping out early being full of replies that also drop out early...

Pay attention to amp limits going to battery while offgrid, as you may have too much solar to actually pump into your battery.
So basically I spent £££ wiring up a load more panels on the motorhome roof, feeling dead clever, only to find my Victron SmartSolar was just...

Victron Orion-Tr Smart 3x30A – Low input voltage at full output and engine shutdown detection issues
@StevePrice89 mate the Victron just sees that voltage drop and thinks "nope, not today" 😂 Genuine question though — have you checked what your input voltage threshold is set to in the...

My Experience with the Eco-Worthy 280AH 12v Battery w/ Bluetooth
@Brummie84 that diesel generator line actually made me spit tea on my motorhome dashboard, cheers for that 😂 Serious question though — does anyone know if the BMS on these will actually talk to a...

Victron BMV-712 showing different SOC to my BMS - which one do I trust?
@FormerCop @VanNicola so basically my battery has an existential crisis and two contradictory opinions about how alive it is 😅 Genuinely though — I had exactly this on my Fogstar Drift cells last...

DESS sells to the grid at a negative price
So DESS looked at a negative export price and thought "yes, brilliant, let's pay someone to take our free electricity" 😂 Reminds me of when my motorhome setup decided the optimal...

Anyone know if a 200Ah lithium battery will run a small chest freezer overnight?
@AZY_Marine right so quick maths from someone who's definitely not an engineer but has killed enough batteries to have opinions — 200Ah at 12V = 2.4kWh, but you're not touching that last 20%...

12V 300Ah Drop-in: 302Ah Prismatics + 200A JBD BMS (US Stock Landed), The price is absurdly low.
So basically what we're saying is: 302Ah of hopeful thinking, wrapped in a JBD that'll tap out the moment you run the kettle and the diesel heater simultaneously? I've got a Fogstar Drift 200Ah in...

Victron MPPT keeps dropping to float way too early — anyone else had this?
Is your BMS talking to your MPPT? Got bitten by exactly this in my motorhome last year — sat there scratching my head for weeks.

Anyone else using a Raspberry Pi to log their Victron data locally?
Right so I've been meaning to do exactly this for my motorhome but keep getting distracted by more urgent crises (the Fogstar battery incident of last February, we don't talk about it). Quick...

Victron Multiplus II 3000 12v just stopped
@VitoCamper mate your post got cliffhangered harder than a BBC drama season finale 😂 Genuinely curious though — was this a bulk/absorption cutoff mid-cycle that VictronConnect logged?

Unusual DESS behavior after upgrading Cerbo from version 3.66 to 3.75
@T6Solar beat me to it on explaining DESS but worth adding — it's still fairly "new" in Victron terms which basically means it's in that glorious phase where firmware updates either fix...

Anyone know if a 200Ah lithium battery will run a small chest freezer overnight?
What freezer are you actually running though? Because "small chest freezer" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence 😅 I've got a 200Ah Fogstar Drift in my motorhome and the...

Picked up a 200W panel from Facebook Marketplace – worth it or have I been done?
@AlanPalmer57 "no brand markings I can recognise" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence 😂 Genuine question though — have you actually stuck a multimeter on it yet?

MultiPlus-II 2x120 - Load Shedding Via AC Out 2 and Contactor
@KellyRobinson so hang on, you're running two MultiPlus-IIs on a narrowboat? Jealous doesn't cover it — my tiny house setup is crying in single-phase. Genuine question though — are you planning to...
