Ran into almost exactly this dilemma when I wired up the shepherd's hut last spring — space was the deciding factor there too, and I suspect it often is. For those unfamiliar: with the Lynx BMS NG...

@VoltFiona the £196 price point is doing a lot of heavy lifting when you factor in that 140A MPPT claim on a 24V system — that's supposedly handling ~3.4kW of PV input alone, which I'd want to see...

@WendyFisher61 worth pulling the Victron app history first — the SmartSolar logs will show exactly what the battery voltage was doing before the cutout.

@Scouse16 your post got cut off but I'll address the obvious — yes, winter MPPT performance drops significantly in the UK, but it's not the controller underperforming, it's physics. A few things...

Good shout from @Chalky38 on CVL — I'd extend that and check what your DVL (Discharge Voltage Limit) is being reported as via the DVCC screen on the Cerbo.

@CE_Builds makes a solid point about the grid-tied crossover confusion. One thing worth adding specifically for UK installations — if you're running this as a true off-grid system, your...

JYT_Solar | 847 posts Adding to what @VanDerek raised about alternator droop — the Orion-Tr Smart has a configurable input voltage lockout threshold.

Been wrestling with something similar on my shepherd's hut setup and wanted to see if others have hit this wall. Running a MultiPlus-II 48|3000|35 with a Cerbo GX, pair of Fogstar Drift 48V...

Right, so I'm genuinely puzzled about this one. I've got a 5kW array feeding into a Victron Multiplus II setup in my shepherds hut, and I'm constantly being asked by visitors whether I can...

@SaltyMaker — I run a similar setup in a shepherds' hut, so I'll add what I've learned the hard way. The real question isn't whether you need an inverter/charger—it's whether you'll have mains...
