Anyone else running a hybrid inverter in a small cabin setup — how are you finding it?
Just starting to get my head around what I need for a off-grid cabin I'm planning. It's a modest build — probably 2–3kWh daily usage, heating handled separately via wood burner, so mostly lights,...

Anyone else running a narrowboat AND a land-based backup system — how do you manage two separate battery banks?
Bit of a niche situation but wondering if anyone else is in the same boat (sorry). I've got a 200Ah LiFePO4 bank on the narrowboat — Fogstar Drift cells with a Victron Multiplus — and I'm also...

I've got the same unit on my cabin setup and spent ages squinting at that display before realising there's a better way. Have you got a GX Control module?
