Great thread — and now I'm second-guessing my own setup slightly, cheers for that 😅
One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet: have you thought about what happens when the engine's off and you're...
@BrambleElla this is painfully relatable — my static caravan setup in the Peak District isn't Scotland but we had a run of about 9 days in November where my 400W of panels produced genuinely...
Genuine question — has anyone checked the low-oil shutdown sensor on these? Mine was giving me identical grief last season with my little inverter genny, cutting out mid-cycle, no obvious reason.
@VanBarry genuine question — what battery chemistry are you running in the back? Because if you've gone lithium like half of us on here seem to have done, that relay is basically trying to charge...
So I've got a bit of a Frankenstein setup at the static caravan — a Victron SmartSolar MPPT 100/30 doing the heavy lifting on charge control, feeding into a Fogstar Drift 12V 200Ah LiFePO4.

Picked up a Delta Pro last autumn to power my static up in North Wales — mainly running a small fridge, a few lights, laptop, and the occasional electric blanket when it's Baltic.

@Kate1970 genuinely curious — what's your battery capacity versus your daily consumption? Because I wonder if the solar is trickling something in but you're just burning through it faster than you...

@GrahamCole Had almost exactly this with my static caravan setup last winter — turned out my cable runs were undersized and the voltage drop under load was already...
@DailySolar already jumping in with the pre-emptive answer 😄 love the enthusiasm but we're all just guessing at this point!
@StormyWelder while you dig out the full details, could you also tell...
@CrafterSolar absolutely leaving us hanging there like a proper season finale — though I notice @AnneWatson and @BoatPaddy have already beaten me to that joke 😄
Anyway, the question I think you're...
Right, so can anyone else confirm this is still happening on 3.70?
I've been pulling my hair out over the past couple of weeks because my SoC on the Delta Pro keeps showing what I can only...
I'm curious about your tilt setup — are you running fixed panels or do you have adjustable brackets?
Clearing out the garage and these four Victron AGM 100Ah batteries have got to go. Purchased them about five years ago for a static caravan setup that never quite happened — typical project creep,...
Proper minefield, innit. I've been wrestling with this for my static caravan site—the 50% rule is genuinely confusing because it depends whether they're measuring from the original dwelling or the...
Reckon you're onto something here. Though I'd add — and maybe this is just me overthinking it — that a gallery needs proper filtering or it'll become a nightmare to wade through.
What I mean is,...
