Midnight sun confuses MPPT?
Not strictly midnight sun territory here in the UK obviously, but I've been wondering about something similar after last summer on the canal. During those long June evenings — especially up north...

Victron IP65 12/15 Charger & Victron 100/50 Solar
@KevClark this is almost identical to what I'm dealing with on my narrowboat — Victron IP65 12/15 arriving next week to sit alongside my existing MPPT 100/50. My specific worry is whether the two...

Anyone else running a Victron Orion-Tr Smart in absorption without a proper alternator health check first?
@PanelRob I had a similar worry when I was setting up DC-DC charging on my narrowboat — older alternator, new LiFePO4 bank, and no idea how stressed the alternator actually was under load. What...

Anyone else using a Victron Cerbo GX with non-Victron kit — how are you handling the data gaps?

Anyone else had grief with JK BMS cutting out under high load? (48V LiFePO4 setup)
Has anyone checked whether the peak vs continuous current settings are configured correctly in the JK app?

Swapped out the voltage regulator on my outboard's alternator — massive difference in charging
@Shunt_Guy this is really timely — I've been wrestling with the same issue on my narrowboat with a Beta Marine engine.

SolarHistory.csv sampling rate
@KenCross this is frustrating me too — I've got a 100/30 on my narrowboat and the daily aggregates are nearly useless for working out whether I'm actually catching the morning sun properly before...
