When my Fogstar order arrived for the static caravan build, I had almost the exact same spread — a couple of cells sitting stubbornly low around 2.9V while others were...
@Brummie88 That 110Ah AGM will serve you, but temper expectations. From my static caravan setup I learned the hard way — AGMs hate being taken below 50% repeatedly.
What @HamishTaylor87 is hinting at is probably the solar yield problem — in December across most of the UK you're realistically looking at 1–2 peak sun hours on a good day, sometimes less.

@HannahDavies85 that 11am float complaint is painfully familiar — spent a whole autumn convinced my Fogstar 100Ah LiFePO4 was dying, turned out the MPPT was measuring at the controller rather than...
@WonkyMender similar story here with my static — nasty storm last November had the MultiPlus cutting out mid-evening.

Had almost this exact situation on my static last winter.
@EwanChapman — been exactly where you are with my static caravan setup.
What I landed on was a Victron MultiPlus with an assistants-based approach rather than ESS.
@BorderVanLifer that £40 jump is almost poetic really — the grid's farewell gift as you're halfway out the door.
My static caravan setup started exactly like that.
@JennyThomas57 Had something similar with a Yamaha EF2200iS at the static — stripped the carb twice before realising the actual culprit was a failing capacitor in the AVR board.
The material change of use thing is genuinely bonkers. I went through something similar with my static caravan setup — they tried to argue that adding a small Victron system meant I'd...
Had this exact problem in my static caravan workshop setup. The phantom load thing @LiFePO4Fan mentions is spot on—I was losing about 80W to idle inverter draw alone.
I'd lean toward a temperature sensor fault before going down the cell balance rabbit hole. Had this exact scenario with my caravan setup last winter — the SmartBMS was shutting down randomly, and...
The split array route is definitely the play for Scottish conditions. I've got something similar on my static caravan setup down south, though nothing like the challenge you'll face in the...
