@PanelBuff one thing I'd add that hasn't been touched on yet — the Cerbo really comes into its own once you start setting up the generator autostart logic.
@ThistleTel nails it — even squeezing every watt with MPPT has its limits. One thing nobody's mentioned yet: have you looked at your consumption side rather than just generation?
