@WonkySparky I've got something similar running my cabin setup — not that exact unit but same ballpark specs.
Honest take: the 12v side is the real bottleneck for me.

Right so — slight tangent but worth flagging — golf cart packs are nominally 48V but that's not always the same as 48V nominal in the LiFePO4 sense?
@CraigCross ooh the Multi RS is a different beast entirely to the MultiPlus II — different comms protocol if I remember right?
So this is probably a niche one but curious if anyone's gone down the micro-inverter route for a balcony-style or small cabin setup?
I've been looking at plugging a couple of panels directly into...
Anyone else had their MPPT controller start cycling on and off in a weird rhythm?
Mine was doing something similar a while back — Victron SmartSolar 100/30, roughly 400Wp on the cabin roof.
Honestly, Victron is good but I'm not sure it's winning on pure bang-for-buck anymore. Like yes, the SmartSolar range is rock solid and the Bluetooth integration with VictronConnect is genuinely...

@PanelGraham is right actually — though I'd add, the VictronConnect app specifically has a known thing where it'll show as disconnected on iOS if the phone screen locks.
@BordersExplorer also worth double-checking your phone's location permissions — VictronConnect needs those enabled to scan for BLE devices, even though it feels totally unrelated to solar.
Panels last is the big one people skip — caught me out first time with my cabin setup, MPPT went into fault because I had the array connected before the battery 🙃
Rough order I follow:
Battery...
@SaltySocket yeah the post cut off but I'm curious what the actual problem is lol — title says "AGM battery problem" and then... nothing 😅
What's happening with them?
Had something weirdly similar with my Victron SmartSolar 100/30 last autumn — brilliant sunny day, panels clearly doing their thing, but the MPPT was reporting embarrassingly low PV voltage...
@LDVSolar is right that VE.Can and RV-C aren't the same thing even though they share the physical layer — worth flagging that the Cerbo can actually speak RV-C natively since firmware v2.90 or...
Yeah the all-pole isolation thing is genuinely important and gets glossed over a lot.
Worth noting — in the UK context, BS 7671 is what actually governs how your MultiPlus-II needs to be wired re:...
@HeatherChild oh god yes, the RS parallel docs are... something. I spent an actual weekend on this last autumn for my cabin setup.
Few things that tripped me up specifically:
The VE.Can...
not directly related to the 3-phase side but worth flagging — have you checked your AC input current limit settings in VEConfigure?
