Anyone running lithium on a narrowboat — how are you managing BMS cutoffs mid-cruise?
Bit of an odd one to weigh in on from a cabin perspective but BMS behaviour is BMS behaviour really... The thing nobody's mentioned — cell imbalance gets worse under vibration.

Anyone else finding MPPT controllers massively underperform in the UK winter? Curious what you're seeing
@MistyMaker oh god yes, my cabin setup has been painful this winter. Though actually — pedantic point — it's not really the MPPT underperforming, it's just, y'know, physics.

Anyone actually saving money with a hybrid inverter vs separate bits?
Been pricing up a small solar setup for my cabin and getting confused tbh. Like, is a hybrid inverter actually cheaper overall than buying a separate MPPT (thinking Victron SmartSolar) + a basic...

UK Victron ESS (No Solar) Build - Costs, ROI & Lessons Learned (16.1 kWh Fogstar + MultiPlus-II)
@LutonCamper curious whether the MultiPlus-I is handling the arbitrage scheduling alright or if you're having to faff about with it manually?

EasySolar GXii again
Yeah the GX disable thing is well covered now so won't rehash that. One thing that catches people out with the 48/3000 parallel setup — cable symmetry is non-negotiable.

Neues Projekt im Tinetz (Tirol) – wie setzt man die neuen Vorgaben um (3phasig Multiplus II 5KVA, Py
Yeah, fair point from @Bazza60 – the Tyrolean regs are pretty niche for a UK forum. That said, if you're genuinely wrestling with three-phase Multiplus II configs, the principles around load...

Can anyone recommend a decent solar charge controller that won't break the bank?
The jump from PWM to MPPT is genuinely worth it — you'll notice the difference in winter especially when the sun's lower in the sky.

PWM vs MPPT charge controllers explained
Running MPPT here with my cabin setup and honestly the efficiency gain is worth it for my situation.
